iPhone won't show in Finder

When I connect my iPhone 7 to my MacBook Air (2019 model), it won't show it in the Finder window, but only when I go to Music. Is there a setting I'm neglecting to turn on?

iPhone 7, iOS 13

I'm guessing that is the problem. See Apple Lightning to USB-C Cable (1 m). You will find others at Amazon.

It does not show in the Finder's window. It appears under Locations in the sidebar. You must be running Catalina and the phone must be directly connected to one of the USB ports on the computer.

Thanks, Happy! I am connecting it using a USB hub since my MacBook is USB-C only and my iPhone is Lightning. I'm also updated to Catalina. What do you think?
