Prioritize Download function

Why does the Prioritize download feature not work?

Going by the name I expected to have the app I chose to prioritize be downloaded before the others but every time I try the prioritize feature it's always the last to finish downloading. This is not just a certain times it works kind of thing. Every time I use it, it delays whatever I'm trying to prioritize

Good evening CaptainFalcon13,


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!


It sounds like you have specific apps that you want to update on your iPhone.

If you have updated the iOS on your iPhone, restart the device to refresh it.

Then check to see which apps have updates based on the new iOS.

If the Prioritize Download feature is not working for you, try turning off automatic updates and manually download the app that is most important to you first rather than downloading all updates.


Update apps or use automatic downloads


If you can’t download or update apps on your iPhone or other Apple device


If the issue persists, please reply to this thread and we'll do our best to help you!


Take care.
