Unfortunately you have provided insufficient information for us to propose a specific solution. Describing what happens when you try, and the exact wording of any error messages, would greatly aid us in helping you. In the meantime review these documents if you think they apply:


Click on this link "If you can’t download or update apps on your iPhone or iPad " --> https://support.apple.com/HT207165

If the first 5 don't help, use the 6th.


Considerations:

Do you have the same problem when using a different Wi-Fi network?

Does restarting your device make any change?

Can you download apps normally on another device?
