I have been unable to update several applications on my iPhone. Each time I attempt to do so I get the following message:
"(AppName) cannot be updated because it was refunded or purchased with a different Apple ID."
How do I fix this?
iPhone 6, iOS 12
If you originally purchased/downloaded an app using another Apple ID, then it cannot be updated with your current Apple ID. You need to delete it and repurchase/redownload it with your current Apple ID. Purchases are tied to the Apple ID used at the time of purchase/download. They cannot be transferred to another Apple ID.

If you have purchased the app, some people have fixed this by signing out of the App Store/iTunes , restarting their device, and then logging back in. That hasn't worked for everyone.
App Updates don't work
