app stuck on purchased

I’ve been trying to download this app for a while but when i pressed the cloud icon to download it on my new phone, it loads for a bit then goes back to the cloud icon. so i went to my purchased in the app store and hid it, thinking it would reset whatever’s wrong. now when i try to download it it’s stuck on “purchased” but doesn’t download. this only happens to apps that i had on my old phone but didn’t redownload, so basically all of the apps with the cloud icon, except for the ones that i had on this phone, then deleted

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 14

Your device charge is too low for that, and unless you have set the device to use cellular to download apps, you need to be connected to wi-fi. Plug the phone in and try again, and connect to wi-fi.
