About once a day, I go to the App Store, tap my name, and see what app need updating.

The other day, I tried downloading a movie (I only have about 3.5 GB of storage available) and iPhone froze up. It didn’t complete the download but some apps needed to be signed in and I lost preferences on others.

Any idea how I can get my app list back?
 
Give it a couple of days. Sounds like you lost the "Updated recently" history, so as new apps that need updates come along it'll rebuild.
 
Same issue on my iPhone App Store "recently updated". The App Store does updates if I pull down to refresh but all of the old history is not present.

Are you almost out of storage on your iPhone too? I think it messed up a pref file or something.

No, I have 172 GB of space free on my iPhone. The App Store update works but I lost my history. It does now show my updated Discovery Card but everything prior to that is gone.

It never displays a full history, just "Updated Recently." Sounds like that list might get cleared out by various things - updates, restarts, etc possibly?

As long as it's showing updates TO install, that's fine with me.

I've never had it disappear until I tried to download a 5 GB movie with 4 GB of storage left, or something like that. I also lost preferences in other apps too. This is why I think something got lost when I tried doing that.
