Unfortunately, you cannot. Restart your iPhone - Apple Support and try again.


If the issue persists, on your old iPhone, Set a passcode on iPhone - Apple Support to a 6-digit passcode, then Transfer data from your previous iOS or iPadOS device to your new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support again.
