Hi all, for the last few days the App Store Updates take ages to update (over 15min when normally it's within 2minutes). This happens in ALL my Apple devices (2 iPhones and one iPad Pro, all with latest iOS/iPadOS). It happens no matter if I connect to different wifi networks. I tried rebooting, forgetting the network, signing out/signing in from App Store account, etc, but no success. All my devices have ample free storage space left (more than 50%). At this point I believe that this is an issue with the Apple servers? Are you experiencing the same? Thanks
Got a tip for us?

App Store Updates too slow in all devices

I’ve had this issue too. Maybe the solution is a bit difficult for you. But the only thing what helped me is changing my DNS server from my networks one to an another one. It depends on where you live. I live in Germany and the reaction time with Quad9 or Cloudflare is much better. I’ve tried other DNS servers and had exactly the same problem as you.
I’ve had this with my provider DNS and unfortunately with DNS Forge as well. You can also try the AdGuard App and chose a DNS of your choice. Or just create a profile with the IP addresses: https://dns.notjakob.com/tool.html
Another advice. Try this DNS Speedtest for your location: https://dnsspeedtest.online/
Thanks for those links, useful, I added them to my bookmarks.
After updating to latest iOS 17.5 and iPadOS 17.5 now the App Store is back to normal, this also applies to iOS 16.7.8 (i have an iPhone X too) app updates update at normal speed in all my devices. 😀. These updates include a modem update, maybe that fixed it.
