One thing that you should know and confirm and that is whether you have an iPhone 6s or do you have an iPhone 6 (Without the S) This is important because an iPhone 6 can only be updated up to iOS 12.5.6 and NOTHING HIGHER. You need an iPhone 6s to update higher than that to iOS 15/16. Double check which iPhone you have.
