I just got a new ipad pro last December. This Feb, software update was required, which I did, and it is now running on iOS 11.2.6. Since then, my apps have not been updating even if the AppStore has flagged available updates. How do I fix this?
iPad Pro Wi-Fi, iOS 11.2.6
I would first, reset your MODEM/router by unplugging it for 10-15 seconds and then re-plug in and let the MODEM/router recycle through its settings.
Then, try another hard reset of your iPad by holding down both the Home and sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until your iPad goes to black and restarts with Apple logo, then release the buttons.
See if this changes anything.
Good Luck to You!

Hi! I‘ve tried turning the iPad on and off last week and once more this week. Same situation. Any other tip? And thank you for the advice on discussions. The screen froze a bit, so I wasn’t sure if my question was posted. =)
No, I have not done that. Though, in android gadgets, a master reset usually deletes all files in the gadget. Is a ‘hard reset’ do the same thing? I’d like to check before trying it. Please advise. Thank you!
No, I did not enable Automatic updates. I usually read through the information on the updates before I updating an application, so I do that manually. Also, I usually update one or two apps at a time only. However, this week, I tried clicking on the ‘Update all’ button, but it still didn’t work. And yes, the download starts and then just stops and reverts to an ‘Update’ status.
Problem solved! I reset the modem, and then, through General settings, I clicked on ’Reset Settings’ (because I did not want to risk my recent files). It worked. I’m able to update my apps now. Thanks to everyone who offered their advice. =)
FYI,
A hard reset of ANY iDevice DOES NOT do anything to ANY of your data.
A hard reset ONLY affects low level code in iOS and will fix any other low level software anomalies.
This DOES NOTHING to any settings or data stored on an iDevice.
A hard reset is totally different from a more complicated Erase and Restore procedure found in the Settings app, General, Reset, which WILL erase ALL of your data.
Next time your iPad glitches with any issue, a hard reset of your iPad by holding down both the Home and sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until your iPad goes to black and restarts with Apple logo, then release the buttons, WILL, most times, fix the temporary software glitch/issue.
Also, sometimes, a hard reset will restore some free data storage space back to your iDevice.
How do you update them, did you enable Automatic updates or you go through Update All in App Store app and the download never finishes?
Try turning off the iPad then back on again.
Then try updating apps.
Have you tried a hard reset of your iPad by holding down both the Home and sleep/wake buttons simultaneously until your iPad goes to black and restarts with Apple logo, then release the buttons?
Will try your suggestion. Thank you very much!

Good to know. I wasn’t sure about this. Thank you!
WHY are my Apps not updating since February 2018?
