Check first -> iPhone type & iOS version -> Go to Settings -> General -> About.


If it is an iPhone 6S you can update to iOS 15.7.6, you can check by reading this Apple article:

iPhone models compatible with iOS 12 -> iOS 16.

Go to Settings -> General -> Software Update -> Download and Install.

 

You need about 6 GB device storage and good Service and/or Wi-Fi.

If they are On, turn Off Hotspot & VPN.

Charge the battery > 70%.
