Keeping the apps on your iPhone up to date is important not only for security reasons, but to ensure you have all the latest features.

While you can always set your apps to update automatically so you don't have to keep an eye on them, if you prefer to install updates manually, doing so is pretty straightforward.

But once you know where to look, a few taps will make sure you're on track with the latest release available.

Here's how to update your apps manually on an iPhone running iOS 13.
