Try to do a force restart -> Force restart iPhone – Apple Support (UK)

Charge the battery > 70%. 

Set Auto-Lock to Never.


You need about 6 GB device storage and good Service & Wi-Fi.

If they are On, turn Off Hotspot & VPN.

Normally the update takes about 30 minutes.


Then try again to do the update, see the following Apple articles:

Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support (IN)

 

If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch won’t update

If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't update - Apple Support

 

You can do the update via PC, see this Apple article: Update software on iPhone, iPad or iPod touch in iTunes on PC
