Wrong Apple ID App Store

I upgraded to an iPhone 14 and my apps show as downloadable but didn’t download (cloud with arrow down). When I click on the app it asks me to sign in to an Apple ID I no longer use and likely used to download the apps in the first place on my old phone; it does not give me the option to use a different Apple ID.


I believe it’s not letting me move forward because the apps belong that that old Apple ID.


Is there a solution outside of deleting every app and redownloading?

The very last sentence of your original post is the only solution unless you still have access to the old account and set up Famaily Sharing with that account. Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support
