Open the app in iTunes on your computer.
Right-click (or control-click if you have a Mac) on the app. Choose "Get Info" from the dropdown. Click the "File" button. You will then see "Purchased By ..." with the info you need.
Am I able to determine source from my phone?
This message pops up every few minutes on phone:
Sign In To iTunes Store
Enter your password for xxxx@yyyyyyy.com
The email noted is my old email (last used for iTunes 2+ years ago).

No. You cannot simply inspect an app on the iPhone and determine which Apple ID purchased it.
Do that in iTunes on your computer as I described above.
Whatever app is popping up the notification, you can just uninstall it and then install it again on the new Apple ID. There is no way to look up what Apple ID it was purchased with so unless you already know that and can punch in that password for it every time it needs updated then you're going to have to remove it and install it with the new Apple ID that you have.
Now you know why you should have just changed the email address used with the Apple ID and stuck to one Apple ID. To consolidate you will have to re-purchase all the old apps under the new account. 😟
Hi
You just need to delete all apps you think were downloaded with old ID
Then download the one,s you want with new current apple ID
Cheers

how do I identify which apple id i purchased apps from so I can stop having it pop up and ask for me to enter the password from an old email?
