Why is App store not allowing me to update my apps

So I have this problem for a really long time. When i want to update some app (for example instagram) i click “update” and then type my password but the problem is it always says “wrong password” even if I change it a minute before trying again how can i start to update my apps normall again?

Is it possible that there is an app on your iPhone that was purchased/downloaded with a different Apple ID than the one you are logged into with for the App Store? Apps are locked to the Apple ID used to purchase/download them, so you have to use the same Apple ID. Have you tried logging out of the App Store, then logging back in again?
