What is the current behavior?
As a user, I'm not informed that there are new updates for the Apps.

After the reboot:
- a notification should appear so I'm informed there is updates for my apps
- if I open Apps and go into "Update" tabs, I see the list of Apps which wait for an update

Workaround
At the moment, the updates itself seems working. When I search the App, the Update button appears. If I tap on it, it installs the update.
