If you are running an older operating system or using an old version of an app that is no longer available for sale in the App Store, you can encounter a situation where there is a newer update available for the app but the App Store won’t show the update or install it automatically. In these cases, to get the newer update, you’ll need to manually reinstall the app. Below you will find instructions for how to do this, depending on your device.
We remove the prior version of our apps from sale after the release of a new major version. Apps that aren’t available for sale anymore can’t be found doing a regular search in the App Store, but they can still be found and re-downloaded from your list of previously downloaded apps.
Mac
- Go to your Applications folder, and move your current copy of the app to the Trash.
- Open the App Store, and view your purchased apps.
- Locate the app you want to update, and click the Download button .
iPhone and iPad
- Go Settings > General > [Device] Storage.
- Scroll down to the list of apps or swipe down to reveal a search field
- Find and tap on the app you want to update.
- Tap Offload App (then again in the confirmation prompt).
- Tap Reinstall App (you may need to wait a moment before this appears).
