As you may have read, I have had four apps over the last two days that wouldn't update on my IPhone 6, so I do not believe it is specific to the audible app. One of them, Shazam, is an apple product, so for sure, it ought to have updated, it won't. I will probably write to apple support later today to see what they say.

Rather than cluttering up the list by replying to each post, individually, I will write a general reply here: 1. This audible problem appears to happen with versions of iOS earlier than 14.x 2. The info in the app store clearly states that the latest release, v3.54 should work with all versions of iOS 11 or higher. 3. The issue is not the download process but the installation process. 4. I was running the previous build of the app but got annoyed at the fact that the App Store badge kept stating that 1 new update was available. This is why I deleted the previous version of Audible in an attempt to install a fresh copy. Obviously this did not work; so now I don't have the app on my phone. 5. As much as it shames me, all of my Windows computers are obsolete; as such, I cannot download the latest version of iTunes. Were I to update the OS on my phone to iOS 14.x, then I would no longer be able to use my current version of iTunes for Windows in order to sync data. I have just been delaying the inevitable, said inevitability being that I must buy a new Windows computer so I can install the latest version of iTunes. Another option is that I can switch my iTunes Library to my Mac, an option in a pinch but one I would prefer to avoid. There is really not a good reason to avoid using my Mac for my primary phone but, deep down, I'm a Windows guy, I guess (smile). 6. I am going to buy whatever version of iPhone is next released, regardless of Touch ID. So, at that time, I will take the plunge and add a new Windows computer to the team so I can have every available option for the new phone. 7. I have posted feedback about this problem in the App Store. 8. I have contacted Audible support and they have created a trouble ticket and assure me that the problem should be resolved in a few days. 9. I also contacted Audible via Twitter. They actually told me that I could download the previous version of the app from the App Store but, of course, they were mistaken; that kind of rollback is only available on Android. Okay, I think that about does it. Again, thank you all for contributing to this thread.

Each time I tried to update, it failed. So, I deleted my currently installed version with the intention of installing a fresh copy of the app. You guessed it, now the app will not install. If the app was not compatible with my current version of iOS, then it should not show in my updates list. This is just a heads-up for everyone.
