iPhone keeps saying app needs to be updated after I pick "keep"

For several old apps on my phone, the new iOS has been bugging me that they need to be updated and asking me to keep or delete them, even though I have already picked "keep". I don't need the data in there or anything; I just want to keep them and for it to stop asking me the same question. Is there a way to get it to chill?


It's an old iPhone SE running iOS 14.6.

I am not experiencing any difficulty with apps, third-party or otherwise. My difficulty is that the OS keeps asking me whether I want to keep or delete apps after I have already said I want to keep them.
