The App Store and other Apple services stop working temporarily
Table of contents:
There's something wrong with the Apple app store. And it is that some services related to the App Store appear out of service for some users A failure that prevents browsing the different content such as applications and games hosted there to download on iPhone, iPad and Mac computers. The problem is not common, and it seems that more and more users are complaining about what is happening.
Thanks to the status query page for the different Apple services we can make sure that App Store applications are downAnd we say it in the plural because both the App Store in general and the App Store for Mac computers and the iTunes section, for buying music, appear in red on said website. Elements that shine in red next to the Outage label that means cut. Of course, at the moment there is no official double confirmation, although there are other accounts and related services that report the same problem, such as WABetaInfo.

According to Apple's services website, users are experiencing issues that prevent them from buying or downloading music, books, or apps from the App Store, iTunes, Apple Books, or Mac App Store. Or what is the same, It is impossible to use Apple's digital content stores during these minutes
In the minutes this news has been written, the service status website has not been updated, so the outage continues to affect users. Apple has not reported what is happening, nor the magnitude of the problem. You can only know that there are several users from all over the world who cannot go through the App Store thanks to the comments they are pouring on the social network Twitter

Hopefully the outage is temporary and doesn't take too many minutes to reset. We will have to wait, then, to find out more details if Apple decides to make some kind of official statement.
UPDATE
The service has been restored. Currently all Apple App Stores have a green light and normal operation.Apple has not clarified what has happened, although it is the second failure that has left Mac users without applications in recent weeks. According to the Apple service status website, the App Store has returned to its proper functioning around 9 at night, Spanish time.
