My iPhone update is taking too long

I’m updating 16.6 but it’s been on preparing update for the last 20 minutes. I never had it last that long before

Is it stuck? Why?? I’m on my iPhone now. I didn’t update my iPhone yet because there seems to be a problem with the update..

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the update or your ipad, plug it into power outlet and leave it alone so it finishes.
