new iPhone I have gotten a new iPhone xr and did the activation method with my old iPhone to transfer everything over and now my new iPhone has been saying it may take a few minutes to activate your iPhone for 4 hours.

activating new iPhone 11 Pro I'm trying to activate a new iPhone 11Pro. The old phone says "Finish on New iPhone". The new phone says "it may take a few minutes to activate your new phone". It's been an hour and a half and still no progress as far as I can tell. And advice?

That depends on the amount of data that is being transferred. It can take an hour or several hours.
