passcode after uptade software 15.1

Since I updated my iphone to 15.1 my 4 digit passcode its not working anymore.

when I try to change to my old passcode pops a msg: this passcode can be easily guessed. your passcode will be used to unlock this iphone and to protect access to your data stored in icloud.

question is why the Icloud thing has someting to do with my passcode to just unblock the phone... How can I make it to the old way? my 4 digit passcode even if can be easily guessed lol

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 15

The message “your passcode can be easily guessed” means that it is not a good passcode, not that it is 4 digits.

You can use whatever you want. But when your phone is stolen that is the first passcode the thief will try, or maybe after trying 0000 and 1234. So just keep in mind that all of your data and your credit cards in the Wallet app, as well as your Apple Cash, will be immediately available to the thief to drain your bank account and run up charges on your credit cards.
