If you want to update your iOS , the iPhone 6s can update until iOS 15.8

The iPhone 6 cannot update further then iOS 12.5.7


If you have indeed an iPhone 6S go to settings>general>software update and make sure to turn off low power mode and to connect to a wifi network.


If updating wirelessly is not working, please update via a pc or Mac instead
