Apps Not Updating

[silkman]

Some of my apps are stuck on a downloading cycle -eg if the update is 10Mb, the update keeps downloading past that and doesn't go to the installing side. This is happening for the past week on my Xperia Z5. Same apps update find on my Samsung Tablet. I tried clearing the Google services cache also.
What could be wrong?

Sounds like Windows 10. I had similar things on early version of Oreo 8. Had disabled auto updates of apps but Google FoolPlay Services still consumed 10MB or 11MB on a start of new day. It drove me crazy. A system update last August fixed an issue.

If you think it is really busy updating apps, not a Google FoolPlay Services, go to the Play Store and access "My apps and games" from the menu. You can update each app individually.

Yeah, I tried that. Some apps update fine that way- it's just a few troublesome ones still giving the problem.
