iPhone 8 - Just bought it and finished setting up.
Everything installed Ok and all apps, except the Apple Store app, updated Ok.
Battery fully charged and also tried when plugged into the mains, tried signing out of my apple account on the phone then back in but this makes no difference.
Software version 11.4
Any suggestions as to how to cure please?
iPhone 8, iOS 11.4
All the instructions given in my previous response are done from the actual APPLE store app, not the APP store app. They are two completely different apps. To prove this, you can go to the search bar on your home screen and search “Apple Store”. The Apple store app I am referring to will populate for you. I am aware that attempting to update the Apple Store app from the App store update list does not work. It does not work because you have not logged into the Apple store app with your Apple ID yet. Once you have logged into the Apple store app with your Apple ID, the Apple store app itself, will prompt you to update the app from within the Apple store app. This will then allow you to update the Apple store app in the App store update listing if it has not been updated already. This solution has been tested and proven. You do not have to resort to deleting the Apple store app as the only solution.
You're welcome. 🙂

Same problem. Have you figured it out yet? I can’t seem to.
Look above and follow the solution by turingtest2 as it worked for me.
Thanks, right answer!
This worked for me
You statement is not true. Nothing works on fixing the issue. Apple is aware of it and was aware of it 2 weeks prior of IOS 12 coming out and Apple has yet to say anything about it.
Thank you very much!! It did work!! Apple store couldnt figure this out unbelievable.
Worked perfectly
Doesn’t work for me.....tried everything....
Thanks. This solved the problem
You're welcome. 🙂

I am already logged in and it’s still not updating
Theguythatfoundtheanswer is completely correct follow his instructions verbatim and it will work. Fixed the problem for 6 of my friends and colleagues. Thanks
Doesn’t work. New phone, all updated except App Store won’t. It begins to then stops and just says “update” again. I signed out, then back on but makes no difference.
I have a problem with only one of my apps, When opening the app a popup appears saying I need to update, I press the the update and nothing happening. I did try a few tricks suggestions from the web but did not help at all.
Anyone up there with some ideas?
Apple Store app won't update
