Hello all,
What you say Wayne is true.
I am still running iOS 6. I noticed that I always had the number 8 beside
the App Store on my home screen, but when I go into the app store to do an
update, it would say all of my apps are up to date.
So I decided to do some investigating.
I went into the purchased area in the app store, and started going through
all of the apps I have purchased. Sometimes I would come to one which had
an update button. When I double tapped on it, it would give me a pop up
screen, and it informed me that I was not able to download this update since
I was not running iOS 7.
It seems that some developers have chosen to restrict their updates to those
just running iOS 7. There could be a very good reason for this, I am not
sure.
But nevertheless, for those who are still running iOS 6, if a number appears
beside your app store on your home screen, but when you check, all apps are
up to date, then do not worry, now you know why.
HTH,
Chris Chaffin

Subject: Re: Discrepency Between Home Screen App Updates And What's Reported
In The App
I have read of others on lis that say the difference in numbers may be
from some updates being for iOS 7 compatibility, and when you bring up
the updates tab, it sees that you don't run iOS 7. So as a result you
see a lower number. If true, I don't know if there is a good way to
fix this, other than you updating to iOS 7 that is.
Regards,
Wayne

Hello List,
I thought I would mention this, as it has been happening more with my
iPhone
4. When I slide my finger on the home screen to locate the "App Store"
app,
it states a much higher number of updates in the app store. The
discrepency
is about 5-6 numbers off when I access the update tab in the App Store
app.
I am running still iOS 6.1.2, so I'm not sure if this is havvening to
others
who have upgraded to iOS 7. Is there a way to calibrate the difference
between what is listed on the home screen and what is announced after the
App Store is opened? I am just curious. It's not a big deal, but I am
obtaining false info from the home screen page.
Thanks.
Best,
Eileen
