I can't add my wife Apple ID to my old iPhone 8 because is in use

Just set up my new iPhone 13 Pro.

Want to give my iPhone 8 to my wife.

I tried changing AppleID on old phone from mine to my wife's.

It won't let me because it says my wife's AppleID is in use.

Please explain or suggest alternatives.

As a first step, use the article below to prepare for transfer of the iPhone 8 to your wife. Then try setting it up. If the setup doesn't work, then try it on the iPhone 6.
