Yes, iOS 12 is the end of the line for the iPhone 6 – a phone introduced nearly ten years ago. If you want to run apps that require iOS 15 or later, you will need to get a newer, less-outdated iPhone. Preferably one that will be compatible with the forthcoming iOS 18. (iPhone 12-series or later if you want 5G support as well as iOS 17 / 18 compatibility.)
