Hello kamc417,


It sounds like you're having some trouble updating your iPhone. You’re in the right place, we’d be glad to assist in seeking a solution.


If the update is stuck, you may have to restart or force restart it first: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't turn on or is frozen


Then take a look at the steps here as they have some of the best troubleshooting steps to resolve update issues when performed from the Settings app: Get help with over-the-air iOS updates. If you're still not able to update, try again from iTunes on a computer after going through these steps: If you see an error in iTunes on your Mac or PC.


Let us know how that works out for you. Cheers!
