Reset Identifier and a payment check: Trevor Nace on updating the App Store

Of six iPhone tutorials posted on the same day, the one about the App Store ran far ahead, even though the store itself has no update button.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 39,883 views a day, 14 times a normal first day on this channel (2,928).

How To Update App StoreHow To Update App Store

Six uploads, one clear standout. Trevor Nace posted a batch of short iPhone fixes on the same day, covering ghost touches, the clipboard, a shaky camera, ringer volume and iMessage activation errors. It was "How To Update App Store" that passed 27,000 views in its first twelve hours. A short on this channel usually gathers about 3,000 in a whole first day.

The title answers a question many iPhone owners eventually type into a search bar, and the answer is less obvious than it sounds. The App Store has no update button of its own: it changes when iOS does. Trevor's short treats the request as a symptom. His steps run from resetting the identifier in the App Store settings and switching off personalized recommendations to checking for an iOS update. They finish on the payment method, which the description names as the usual culprit when apps refuse to download.

The handful of comments read like a help desk queue. A viewer in Canada wonders whether one of the options exists only in the US. Another wants the StandBy clock back to customize, and a third is stuck outside their own Apple account after a Screen Time change.

The week before, his tutorials were all about iOS 27, as we reported here. This one is an older kind of problem, and its fix fits in under two minutes.
