An iPhone 6+ cannot update beyond iOS 12.5.2. You need at least an iPhone 6s to update to newer versions.

What to do:

A. Visit these two sites:



B. View Incompatibility:

See if your iPhone model can be updated to iOS13 and iOS14.. If updating is not an option, then it is because you iPhone does not meet the hardware requirements for this iOS versions.


Important:

C. Back Up your iPhone:

Putting that aside, take this as a chance to backup your iPhone, if never done before. That way, you will have something to restore your iPhone from should anything go wrong in the future.
