Go to Settings/Face ID & Passcode (or Touch ID & Passcode on phones without Face ID), tap Change passcode, enter the 6 digit passcode, then tap Passcode Options and you can select 4 digits. Note that 4 digits is much less secure than 6, so only change it if you have no data on your phone that you don’t mind being stolen.
