I changed Apple IDs on iPad; store still asking for old sign in

I entered a new Apple ID in settings for iTunes and App Store on my iPad. When I open the store and try to update my apps (downloaded with the previous Apple ID) it requests the password for the previous Apple ID.


What step am I missing in changing to the new Apple ID?

iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iOS 9.3.5

purchased apps are uniquely associated with the apple ID used to purchase them - you can not change that, you either have to log in using that Apple id or repurchase them with the new Apple ID
