Folks,
Why do app store updates in ios 14.1 on iphone 8+ take FOREVER? I have a 600Mbps internet connection and I didn't have this issue of slow apps update in ios 13.
What changed in ios 14? Hope this is not planned obsolescence!
I have been thinking of iphone 12 pro max but having second thoughts now. Already, my iphone 6+ crawls due to CPU throttling. Not a great user experience!

Hello,
Thanks for taking time and looking into this.
I am happy to report that in iOS 14.2, app updates are back to normalish speed. It must be a 14.1 bug.

Hello sunny354,
Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Community. It looks like app updates are downloading slowly on your device and we'd be happy to look into this with you.
Are you experiencing this issue when connecting to different networks?
To get started, let's rule out simple solutions. Have you tried restarting the device normally?
Next, let's make sure the device is up-to-date on software. When you navigate to: Settings > General > Software Update do you see any available updates?
If so, please back up your iPhone, then update as explained in the following links:
