App Store is Down for Many Users [Resolved]

If the App Store is currently down for you, you are not alone. Many users have indicated that the App Store is not working for them right now across devices like the iPhone, iPad, and Mac, preventing them from downloading apps after tapping the "Get" button.

The issues are not yet reflected on Apple's system status page, but thousands of customers have indicated they are affected on the Downdetector website.

We'll update this post as more information becomes available, or when the issues appear to be resolved for all users.

If you are affected, let us know in the comments section.

Update 1: Apple's system status page now lists issues with the App Store's Volume Purchase Program and subscription purchases, but not the App Store overall. Check back for further updates.

Update 3: Apple's system status page says the App Store outage has been resolved.

LOL. Got our October outage. That's back-to-back outages every month ('https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-says-some-users-experiencing-imessage-and-facetime-issues-updated.2437785/?post=33433918#post-33433918') now since April 2024. Come on November outage 🤞

Didn't even notice. Does anyone else barely use the App Store anymore? Not sure if it's because I'm getting older, or because I've settled into the apps that I like for years now, or because the built-in OS is so robust nowadays, but I just don't find myself needing to install much. I've only downloaded a few apps this year, such as Govee to control some smart lights, Apple Sports, an app my kid's school told us to install, and a few emulators when those came out.

For years I was an appoholic downloading and testing all kinds of stuff. I would visit App Shopper every day to see what new apps there were. Now I'm just kinda over it—there isn't that constant innovation anymore.

You can just sideload the app instead of waiting for the App Store issue to be resolved.
