Iphone asks for wrong apple ID when trying to update apps.

When trying to update apps, my iphone 11 keeps asking for another family members apple ID password, even though I'm logged into my account. I have no idea why this is happening or how to correct it.

iPhone 11, iOS 17

App Store asking for wrong Apple ID password for app updates Hi, I had an earlier query but this is an update. My phone has my AppleID & email address. But when I go in to the App Store, to update 'all' apps, it asks me to enter my AppleID password....the problem is it's showing my hubby's AppleID instead of mine. But it should show mine and not his. In Settings, it's my AppleID anywhere it shows AppleID details. So I can't figure out how to change all to mine. This is a recent discovery, as it hadn't happened before as I have been able to update with no issue. [Re-Titled by Moderator] Original Title: App Store and updating

Iphone asks for another persons apple id password Hello, I have been using my own Apple ID account for a year now, and for some reason sometimes it happens that the phone asks for another Apple ID (my father's), but I do not have access to his account. Just recently I changed the phone to 16 Pro and I have this problem again, the phone asks for another Apple ID, namely the password for it. Is there any way to remove this?

Delete and redownload those applications. The other Apple ID is stored inside them.
