Transferring information on set up of new phone

I just got an iphone 11 and followed the directions to transfer my iphone 8 information into the new phone. The new phone is showing a software update as part of the set up. Do I need to update my new phone to ios 3.7 in order for my old phone to transfer? It has been transferring for 3 hours now. My iphone 11 is showing the software update screen and my iphone 11 is on a screen that says "finish on new iphone" while the wheel keeps going around and around and around.

Hi there,

You only need 12.4 to use quick transfer.

See this guide for clarification: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT210216
