For the iPhone 6 – introduced nearly ten years ago – iOS 12 is the end of the line.


You cannot update the iPhone 6 to iOS 13.0 or later, nor to iOS 15.0 or later. Thus the iPhone 6 cannot run the apps in question. If you want to run those apps, you will need to buy a new (or at least newer) iPhone.

Updating an iPhone 6 Past iOS 12:

A. You can't.  The iPhone 6 will only install to iOS 12.5.7. See here: Update your iPhone or iPad Software if you're Experiencing Issues with Location, Date, and Time - Apple Support. And, for the note, even if you could update, only the latest version will install.


So, what to Try:

B. Update Using a Computer:

Have a Computer Handy? If so, try using a computer to update. Go here: Update your iPhone Using a Computer - User Tip. If any updates are availabe, they will install, sure enough.
