Can I assume that you did successfully delete the apps? Make sure that they are gone. Go to Settings>General>Storage & iCloud Usage>Storage>Manage Storage. Make sure they are not listed in there. If they are, tap on one, then delete it in the next screen.


If they really are gone, try disconnecting from WiFi. Go to Settings>Airplane Mode>On. Then restart your phone. Go back to the settings, turn Airplane mode off, then try to download the apps again.
