Unable to install stock Apple apps on iPhone

I’m having a hard time installing apps on my iPhone. It’s a message popping up saying unable to install app due to a billing problem with a family members recent purchase.

Lately, whenever I try to get a new app I use double-click and Apple doesn’t download the app and the GET button turns back on - a vicious circle: you press GET again and double click and just goes back to GET w/o downloading!!

Yeah i have 2 verified cards on my iphone 14 pro max and whenever i try to download something thats free it says “ verification required” and it has me put in my Apple ID password which I do and then it brings me to my cards and then all my cards say failed when on my family members android they work fine and then I delete the cards and I’ll re-add them yet. It still won’t let me download the app even though it’s free, and after I add all the card information, it’ll add the card back on, but then tells me I need to verify it again, but won’t give me a way to verify it.

I am currently having this problem too on my iPhone 15 pro and Apple Watch Ultra 1 , I reset both my watch and iPhone and after setup all built in apps are not installing but apps downloaded from App Store downloads just fine , this is the first time I’ll ever experience this and it started to occur after iOS17.3 and watchOS10.3 update

I have exactly the same issue. I can’t find any fix. If anything knows what is causing this and the work arpund it would be most appreciated. My payment info is fine, I have enough storage, I’ve turned on and off again, but for weeks now I double click it sounds like it’s going through…… then back to GET!

I’m having the same issue and can’t find an answer anywhere.

I have:

* restarted the phone

* checked storage

* checked billing info

* reset the phone

All of which has made no difference.

Has anyone found a solution?

My iPhone 11 won't download any apps, anytime I do it loads for like a second and then tells me to do my password again

For anyone with an older iPhone that is no longer supported by new iOS updates, here's what you need to do:

• Open App Store
• Tap on your profile icon in the upper-right corner
• Tap "Purchased"
• Tap "My Purchases"
• Find each app you're having trouble with and tap to download it

This will allow you to download the latest *compatible version* with your phone, meaning an older version that still works with your iOS version.

What is wtong and how to fix if your iphone ‘takes payment’ but label returns to GET rather than OPEN?

Contact Apple Support

Note: When you do contact Apple Support, let them know which method you used to set it up from a backup. For example, were you using an iCloud backup or did you use a computer backup? As that will help them to determine how they could proceed.

Take care.

Try just taping "Get" once.
