My old iPhone died and I am trying to set up a replacement. When I get to the "Transfer Your Apps & Data" step (see first picture below) I choose "From iCloud Backup" (because I don't have another phone to use). I would expect that I would then be prompted to enter my Apple ID and password, but instead I get a prompt to "Use Another Device to Sign In". But I don't have another device! The "Continue" button is grayed out so I don't know what to do. Surely this isn't how it's supposed to work, right? What am I doing wrong here? Or maybe a better question is: Why is "Continue" greyed out, and what do I have to do to enable it?

an iPhone screen reading Transfer Your Apps and Data, showing several options including From iCloud Backup and From Another iPhone an iPhone screen reading iCloud, with the Continue button grayed out
