Not difficult but there are many very small screws and opportunities to break the screen. https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/iPhone+6s+Battery+Replacement/56607

I did it on the 6. I’m assuming they are pretty similar if not the same.
Not too hard if you have the right tools and good fingers

YouTube helped as well.

Did you use a heat source to get the battery out? For the adhesive under the battery.

I used a blow dryer for a couple of minutes and then there are tabs under that battery that you pull on. You have to do it slowly and steadily. It stretches really far!

Why not do it by Apple for $29? Broken screen?
