    Is anybody else having issues with Google Play not updating apps? I did most the troubleshoots and still didn't fix the issue. Apps stop at 99% and won't finish updating...

    Did those troubleshooting steps include clearing the cache/data of both the Play Store and the Download Manager apps?

    Are you using a VPN? I found that when I had Nord VPN activated that my Google Play store apps wouldn't update automatically.

    I need a fix for this problem. Did all the suggestions and still no good. Downloads are quick but the install takes forever.

    don't know if your play store problem is slow downloads like mine or not being able to update apps period but my problem turned out to be somehow my data saver got turned on,as soon as I turned it off everything is right in the world again

    Is this happening on your wifi at home?

    Reboot your router and reboot your phone.

    Try again.

    You need to try all avenues.

    Wifi or cellular same result. Once again, app downloads rapidly but the install takes forever.

    Is it for any app, or only certain apps?

    Have you also tried wiping the cache partition?

    Tried wiping...no help..... another interesting thing is apps take a long time to uninstall also.

    Seems to have been fixed. Working good now. Probably was a playstore bug since that app updates itself.
