Hello TherealNoID,


Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities.


If you're having issues updating your iPhone, you'll want to follow the actions provided in If your iPhone or iPad won't update - Apple Support.


Some key things to point out:


  • Make sure you have enough storage space on your iPhone
  • Connect your iPhone to it's charger and charged to at least 50%
  • Use a good known Wi-Fi network, especially if the previous attempts were using cellular only
  • Turn off Low Power Mode if it's enabled (Settings > Battery > Low Power Mode)


If you're unable to complete the update wirelessly, try installing it using a computer as outlined here: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with the Finder - Apple Support or Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iTunes - Apple Support.


Should you continue to experience issues, reach out to Apple Support for additional guidance at Get Support.


Best regards.
