Hi Hyper_Roblox,


It sounds like you're having trouble downloading apps from the App Store on your device. We have a few steps to recommend, and would like you to test your password in between each one.


  1. Make sure you're able to sign in to manage your Apple ID and use the option to reset your password, if any alerts appear.
  2. Also, make sure you can sign in under Settings > [your name] > Media & Purchases.
  3. If you use any alternate Apple ID accounts, try the password for that account as well.
  4. Then delete an app you're attempting to update, then re-download it from purchases.


Redownload apps, music, movies, TV shows, and books


This should allow you to be able to update apps again. For further help, Contact Apple Support.


Have a wonderful day!
