Apps taking forever to update?

[Infiniti7]

So I took a flight and put my phone in airplane mode and when i landed I noticed about 5 apps were darkened trying to update. Well they weren't updating and just sitting there darkened out. Finally after about 3 hours they updated. Any idea?

I'm sure it's because of wherever you are, the signal isn't that great.

This makes sense. My Apps always download pretty quick unless I'm not on WiFi or don't have a strong LTE signal.

I've disabled automatic update. If I'm not on wifi I'll just wait till I am.

Ya I was in areas where the service was cutting in and out. Makes sense. Have u guys experienced this?

I have had problems with app install stalls on iOS 7 since beta 1 ... It happens randomly and can be a pain to resolve. The easiest method is to plug your phone into iTunes and that seems to resolve the issue once you sync.

What kind of problems have you had?

I've had my Facebook app crash recently as well. do you think this is all a software issue or hardware with these kind of problems?

Apps stalling out, this has been a issue since Beta 1 ... I'm sure they will get it figured out.

Software.

Agreed, the OS and API are still new .. Each update seems to resolve issues more and more ... Still think iOS7 is fantastic!
