Hi!
Do you get any popups or notifications saying why you're unable to install?
Are you able to install apps on another device with the same apple ID?

As im not sure what the issue is, here are a few solutions you can try out:
1) Download over Wi-Fi. You may reach a limitation of the App Store if you download an app over a cellular connection like 4G. Apple limits the size of apps you can download over cellular networks to 200 MB. (Older versions of iOS set the limit to 150 MB.) This prevents people from using too much data on a single download. If the app you want to download is bigger than that, connect to Wi-Fi and try again.
2) Restart the App Sore App. The bug in downloading the app may have to do with the App Store app. Quitting the App Store app may clear the bug. After you quit the app, re-open the App Store app and download the app again.
3) Restart the device. Sometimes you need to restart a device to get things working again. There may be a temporary glitch in the operating system or a software component. A restart usually resolves these issues.
4) Check your Apple ID payment method. To download apps, you need to connect a payment method to your Apple ID, even if you're downloading a free app. If you do not have a payment method on file, or if your card is expired, you might not be able to download apps. This can also lead to a Verification Required pop-up message. Adding a valid payment method may solve the problem.
5) Sign out of the App Store and sign back in. An iPhone that can't download apps may signify that something is wrong with your Apple ID. If the connection between your iPhone and the Apple App Store is disrupted, signing out and signing back in may fix it. Select Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID > Sign Out. Then, sign back in by selecting Sign In and entering your Apple ID username and password.
6) Incorrect date and time settings may block you from downloading apps. The easiest way to solve this is to make your iPhone automatically set its date and time so that it's always correct. Select Settings > General > Date & Time. Move the Set Automatically toggle switch to On (green).
Hope this helps!
