Method 1 Check Whether Apple's Official Server Is Still Working Properly

First of all, we must make sure whether the “App Store not working” is caused by Apple’s server crash.

Go to Apple System Status and check whether App Store is “green-on”. If not, that means the App’s server is going through a downtime.

Similarly, you can also apply this method when other Apps based on Apple’s official server don’t work anymore.

Method 2 Restart App Store

Although it sounds a little bit weird and simple, to shut down the App and restart it tends to solve some small glitches now and then.

Double-tap on the home button, swipe App Store to the right to shut it down and then, restart it to see whether it works now.

Method 3 Sign out of the Apple ID and Create A New One to Log in Again

Method 4 Make Sure Port 80 and Port 443 Are Open

This might seems to be a little bit technical, but it doesn’t matter much. Port 80 and Port 443 are set up to ensure the connection between App Store and internet. If any of them is not opened, then, App Store won’t work properly.

Go to google.com and if it successfully loads, Port 443 is working fine. Then, try opening several different websites to see whether they can be opened. If they do, Port 80 is opened.

If neither of them is opened, please reset the network.

Method 5 Reset Network Settings

If Apps on your iPhone don’t work properly or cannot be opened at all, it might be caused by improper network settings.

In this case, to reset network setting can be the best choice to fix the problem
