Iphone 11 "Swipe to Upgrade" loop I went to update my iOS today and I have not been able to use my phone for 12 hours. The screen is white with an Apple logo and progress bar. Right when the bar nears the very end, it doesn't finish. I have tried a hard restart with no luck. I have connected it to my Mac but it won't connect with the phone until I click the "trust this device" button that is supposed to appear on the iPhone but nothing can appear because of the white screen with either the progress bar or the "Swipe to upgrade" message that appears at the bottom. When I swipe up and put my passcode in, it brings me back to a progress bar screen but nothing else happens. Any advice on how to fix it would be appreciated! Thanks.
