Ios App Updates Not Showing Up
If you don t see the update in the list of apps or if the issue happens again you need to update your device with your computer using finder or itunes.
Ios app updates not showing up. Your iphone s date and time settings influence whether it can update apps. Perhaps automatic software updates aren t working on your iphone because of an issue with apple s servers. We ve shared part of the changelog below which lists all the bugs that have been addressed with this new update.
Visit apple s system status website to check everything is up and running. Of course on iphone the home screen displays all the installed apps on the phone. Open is what usually comes up when an app is downloaded and updated.
Tap the update then tap delete update. Find the update in the list of apps. If apple s servers are down your iphone can t download new software from them.
Upon choosing the open option the app does open. The point updates 5 1 or 6 0 2 for example tend to offer important bug fixes security patches and general performance enhancements. Check for update manually.
The reasons for this are complex but basically your iphone performs a number of checks when communicating with apple s servers to update apps. Keeping the ios operating system software up to date on your ipad is nearly always a good idea. Or open the watch app on your iphone scroll to app store and tap it then turn on or turn off automatic updates.
Rarely you might need to go to settings general storage and delete the update from the device then reboot the iphone or ipad and return to settings general software update to download and install the update again. However the app does not show up in the midst of other apps displayed on the homepage. Go to settings on your iphone tap on general then tap on software update it will start to search and check update and generally will show you the ios 14 update tap on download and install.
