Unable to update my iPhone 6s to iOS 15.6.1

unable to update 15.6.1 . it seems to install but unable to verify.

I have not updated since 14.8 as when trying it says not enough storage space.

this time it did not say that and it appears the new upgrade used the storage I had., and also says installed.

I did agree to temporarily close apps until the installation.

could the problem be that I did not upgrade since 14.8?

Hope you can help

VPN or proxy connections might prevent your device from contacting the update servers.

If you still can't install the latest version of iOS, try downloading the update again:

  1. Go to Settings > General > [Device name] Storage.
  1. Find the iOS update in the list of apps.
  1. Tap the iOS update, then tap Delete Update.
  1. Go to Settings > General > Software Update and download the latest iOS update.

If you don’t see the update in the list of apps or if the issue happens again, you need to update your device with iTunes.

Try updating iOS after each step.

  • Try to Forget the WiFi network and add it again
  • Try another WiFi network 
  • Toggle sets automatically off and then on
  • Reset your network settings
  • Force restart your device
  • Remove any beta profiles, if applicable
  • If everything fails: - Use iTunes or Finder (for macOS Catalina+) to update your device instead of over-the-air
