Anyone else having problems updating apps on their iPhone? I have a 17 Pro Max.

Started noticing this today - App Store --> Click Name Top Right --> App Updates --> Update All or try to update one individually.

Just repeatedly fails over and over - regardless of rebooting the phone, on WiFi / 5G, etc.

I think it's an App Store issue, I see the problem on devices not running 26.5.1.
Edit: Apple's system status page reports the App Store is having an outage: https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/

26.5.1?

Is that a beta? I'm on 26.5 and just to test this am updating 12 apps that are showing as needing updates. My iPhone is running through it without a hitch.

iPhone 11 Pro Max, Phoenix, Arizona if it matters. Edit: updating over cellular, not on WiFi.

And done. All 12 updates - no issue whatsoever.

It's working now - it was borked for maybe 15-20 minutes. I swore I checked the app status page but chrfr is correct:

26.5.1 came out for us 17 and Air owners - I thought originally it was 26.5.1 but it was just an App Store outage:

All is well now - I just updated my apps successfully. My bad - thanks @chrfr 😀
