about a week ago my apps stopped updating. When I click on an available update it spins in a circle for a few seconds and then the update button pops back up.
I’ve updated my phone to 12.4 but the problem is persisting.
Any suggestions?
iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 12
If you can’t download or update apps, or if apps get stuck
If apps don't load or update on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, learn what to do.
If you can’t download or update any apps, including free apps, and you see a message about billing or payment, learn what to do.
Some apps might get interrupted while they're downloading. Try these steps:
Connect to Wi-Fi
If you’re using cellular data or Wi-Fi and have issues with an app, try to connect to another Wi-Fi network. You can use cellular data for apps up to 150 MB* in size.
To check your Wi-Fi connection, try streaming a video from the Internet to see if it loads quickly. Get help connecting to Wi-Fi or contact your Internet provider for more help.

I have the same problem. I now have 30 Apps waiting to Update on my iPhone and 31 Apps on my iPad.
I am running the latest version of iOS.
I am connected to a broadband WiFi network.
I have restarted both the iPhone and iPad.
My Apple ID details are correct.
The last successful update was on the 2-Sep-2019.
All of a sudden the apps have started downloading. I have made not changes since following the earlier instructions 2 days ago. The problem appears resolved.
