I was able to download and run some iOS applications on my 13 inch M1 MacBook Pro about a week ago. Today, I tried downloading some iOS apps on my device, but after I press the GET and INSTALL button, it changes to a cloud icon and the downloading process does not even begin. I can download and run mac apps just fine, it's just the iOS apps that are reluctant to begin the downloading process.
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.2
I also have this problem. The most frustrating part is that only iOS apps have the cloud icon and Mac apps work and download just fine. I tried what people did and force quit appstoreagent from the activity moniter but it didn't fix my problem...

I'm having this same issue! I bought my M1 mac yesterday and still can't download any iOS apps. It only shows the same cloud icon and briefly shows a circle before going going back to the cloud icon. Pretty frustrating.
I figured out how to get it to work. You have to create a new user account (name it something different from your main account) make it an administrator user and then try to download the apps from that new user account and it should work once you download an app from that new user account you can go back to your main user account and see if the apps you downloaded from the new user account are there if they are try to download some iOS compatible apps from your main user account if it works you can delete the test user account and you should be good.
I am now able to iOS/iPadOS apps in my M1 Mac. Apple has resolved the issue.
I have exactly the same problem - I bought it expressly for this for my lad to play among us as my old iMac and MBA won’t - its infrutiating
Exactly same here! This is very frustrading!
Please fix this.
I am experiencing the same issue on my M1 MacBook Air. I cannot download/install new apps or previously downloaded apps.
I'm having this problem also!
