catalina keeps asking to update iphone software

I am running Catalina and since updating my iphone 8 to iOS 15.4 every time I connect the phone to my iMac it asks me to update the software, only thing is it is already at the latest (15.4) and if I select Not Now and check the phone in iTunes it says the phone is up-to-date. I get the same with my wife's iphone 8. Any ideas on how to fix ?

It is asking to install what is effectively an updated driver for macOS. Your computer gets updated, not the phone. Click Install and move forward.
