Recently many iPhone users have reported seeing several app updates on their AppStore this is because Apple reissued updates for several iOS apps which means that even the most recently updated apps will get a new update in the AppStore, reported by MacRumors.

These updates are flooded to some users with up to nearly hundred apps to be updated, even the most recently updated apps are asked to be updated again, however, this reissuing of apps is not a problem or hassle to iOS users, all you have to do is update your apps once again and everything will be fine.

MacRumors suggests that this may be because of the recent bug that came with iOS 13.5 update where some users see "This app is no longer shared with you" message whenever they try to launch an app and the same dialogue was shown for several other apps and because of this, users can't access most of the apps that were installed on their iPhones.

There is no particular reason known for this to happen currently as Apple did not respond or released a statement regarding the bug or the reissuing of the updates for iOS apps, but many suspects that this happened because of certificate issues which mean that certificates are expired which led to several iOS apps being unaccessible.

This will lead to a serious problem to some users as they may not save or backup their data in one of the apps that were affected by the bug, maybe few didn't save their game progress which is a very concerning thing for some users particularly for those who frequently use their iPhones to play games especially after the arrival of Apple Arcade.

But there is a solution to this problem, you can offload your app before reinstalling it and this keeps your data safe and untouched but after this reissuing of updates the bug must be fixed.
