Auto Update Not working for latest iOS 7 apps

So I installed iOS 7 on my iPhone 4. I opened the App Store and I was prompted to accept the new terms and then asked if I wanted to Auto-Update. I selected yes to both. When I go to Updates, nothing appears. Then I saw a post on iMore about Chrome being updated. I opened the app and it still had the same look. I went back into the App Store and went to Update, and nothing was updated nor did it say anything needed to be updated. So then I searched for Google Chrome and when I hit open, it started to download the new version. Once it finished installing, it was indeed the new version that matched iOS 7. Then I looked at the featured apps updated for iOS 7 and found that American Airlines and Facebook have the same issue. They say "open" when I view it in the list. But if I select an individual app to read the details, it says update there. None of them auto-updated, but even more strange, none show as an update being available. Anyone else noticing this?

There are some issues with updated apps taking a while to hit the update section of the App Store today.
The App Store and iTunes are really getting overwhelmed today.

Not sure why... I haven’t seen any updates yet today... yesterday afternoon they stopped for a while too, even though I knew there were updates... then BAM! suddenly I had like 15 show up and auto update... I suspect that it may have something to do with volume and the servers being slammed... but can’t say for sure...
