With iOS 13, apps and games you've downloaded from the App Store are automatically updated. You can, however, update manually within the App Store or turn off the feature to automatically update your apps and games. This wikiHow will show you how to update all your apps on iPhone or iPad with iOS 13.

  3. 3
    Tap Update All next to the "Pending Updates" header. You'll have to scroll down the page to find this.[1]
    • You have the option to tap Update next to each app so you can individually update.
