The iPhone 6 cannot update beyond iOS 12.5.7. That is the most current version it supports. It lacks the hardware, RAM and CPU for anything newer.


If the apps you want require a newer iOS version, then thr only option is to get a newer iPhone model, that can run that iOS version at least. The iPhone 6 is 9 years old at this point.
