On rare occasions the App Store, the app where we go to update our apps as well as discover new ones, shows us a connection error. So what do we do then? Softonic has six steps that will help us to access the App Store again<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

When we talk about diagnosing errors in the connection, in this case of the App Store, there are different variables to take into account, so let’s order our resources from easy to complex and also according to their probability. The first thing in all cases is to make sure that our device has the latest software version<\/strong>. Then we will continue with the following steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Retry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The simplest option. When the App Store has some difficulty in the connection the first thing it does is to offer us to try again with the Retry<\/em> button. We can try a couple of times and see if the connection is restored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Do I have an internet connection?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is the following question. To find out if we have connection we open Safari and enter a web page, for example Softonic<\/strong>. Does it load? Perfect, we move on to the next step. It does not load? We activate and deactivate the Airplane Mode<\/em> on our iPhone or iPad or deactivate and activate the Wi-Fi connection on our Mac, if we use wired connection we check our Router. Once we have recovered the connection, the App Store should work perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Restart the app<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes apps may have a process that generates an error, we will completely close the app and reopen it, this will restart the processes and surely we will recover the connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On our iPhone or iPad with Face ID we slide from the bottom of the screen to the center of the screen with one finger and release, if our device does not have Face ID we press twice the Home button. Drag the App Store app up until it disappears<\/strong>. On our Mac we press Command (\u2318) + Q. Now we can reopen the app, is it still offline? we continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
