There could be an issue with the network. You should try it again after resetting your network settings.


Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This also resets Wi-Fi networks and passwords, cellular settings, and VPN and APN settings that you’ve used before. (Source = https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204051)


If the over-the-air update still doesn't work, you should plug your iPhone into a computer (Mac or PC) and update through iTunes or the Finder.
