Hello Yomideade234.
If you are referring to the fact that you are on that version of iOS and aren't relieving any more updates, sorry, but Apple stopped releasing updates for the iPhone 6s in 2020. The reason for this is due to the amount of power that the chip in the older phones can give. They don't have enough power to run the newer versions of iOS. You should consider upgrading to an iPhone SE. For a cheaper phone, the benefits are tremendous! But sorry, you can't get any updates otherwise.
If you are referring to the fact that you can't update to iOS 15.8, then more information is needed for anyone to provide an answer. What error message does it give you when you try to update? Because if it's:
Otherwise, please provide more information (and screenshots) about what happens when you try updating.

That's a bit misleading. The iPhone 6S supports iOS 15.8.1 which was released two days ago (1/22/24).

Oh! Sorry, I completely forgot. I myself read the release notes and news, and completely forgot that they still release important security updates. What I meant is that they don't let you upgrade and not that they don't let you update. My bad.

I woud hazard that most people asking for help here don't make that fine a distinction between the two words. ;-)
View this article. It can answer this question perfectly.
Can you please post a screenshot?
What is the exact error message that you see when you try to update?
I can’t update my iOS 15.8.2 to iOS 16
You are correct. The iPhone 6s can update as far as iOS 15.8.2.
But, that's it.......it cannot update to iOS 16.
You would need an iPhone 8 if you want to move to iOS 16.
