Is that any particular app which refuses to load or ALL apps are misbehaving?

Usually if app is incompatible or signature is different it will not install at all.

Can you uninstall it and try to install it back?

Worst case scenario would be to reset phone to factory default and start from scratch. Backup everything first!

For few important apps I use almost daily, when update is offered I first do a backup of current version and then apply an update. And NEVER allow apps auto-update.

@Cat26mck3240 

Have you checked compatibility of updated version with your OS?

Usually you'd get a warning if it's not compatible or refused to update altogether, but it's worth checking.

Are you getting the circle of death? Try @computergeek541 suggestions. If they don't work check to see if your web driver is disabled. If so open the app to turn it back on. You may have to install any updates available first before it will allow you to open the app and enable the web driver.

Do you mean that you can't open apps or that the internet connection doesn't work?  Do they work on Wi-Fi?

If you mean that one speicfic app won't run, try force stopping, clearing the storage used by the app, uninstalling it, and then reinstalling it.  Please be aware hat this will erase any preferences/settings and user information saved within in them.
