Apps hanging as waiting and not downloading

Have just purchased a new iPad 10th Gen but when I have logged in to my Apple ID lots of the apps say “waiting” and Wong download, have tried so many different fixes but 48 hrs later I still haven’t been able to download them - any ideas?

iPad (10th generation)

Try a forced restart of your iPad:


Force restart iPad (models with Face ID or with Touch ID in the top button)

If your iPad doesn’t have the Home button, do the following:

  1. Press and quickly release the volume button nearest to the top button.
  2. Press and quickly release the volume button farthest from the top button.
  3. Press and hold the top button.
  4. When the Apple logo appears, release the top button.




Force restart iPad (models with the Home button)

Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
