I have a new iphone xr and started quick start following Apple on line instructions. My Plusnet wifi connection says the signal strength is good (shown on Windows pc). The phones are side by side and working wirelessly. I have held the camera over the animation and entered my passcode on the new phone. The old phoe has a message display on screen saying Finishing on New iPhone. The daisy wheel is spinning. It has been like this for two hours or more. I have about 40 apps on my phone and photos, music etc less than 3 GB .. any ideas why it is taking so long and is this a problem? Thank you

@gedster1 Everything is transferring over from one device to the other. It shouldn’t take this long and you might need to start again.
