WhatsApp requires iOS 12.0 or later.


You can update your iPhone 6S to iOS 15.7.2, but not to a higher iOS (16 and later).

For sure please check your iPhone model & iOS version -> Go to: Settings -> General -> About.

Then go to Settings -> General -> Software Update -> Download and Install.


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

If they are On, turn Off Hotspot & VPN.

Charge the battery > 70%.
