Hello Deidre, I think that I would inquire about the battery replacement I have had my iPhone6s for about three years and I recently replaced the battery a year ago and the phone is really quick just as if it were purchased recently. Since it was indicated that you have had the phone for about a year you might also consider resetting the phone and starting it as new or resetting various settings such as network settings etc. It could be that there is a particular app or something that is causing the phone to be sluggish. Finally, you could also enable reduced motion in settings/general/accessibility/reduce motion. This will lessen the effects on the display and could lead to a minor speed increase.
