If you check your App Store and go into the Updates section, you will find that all apps are updated but still you see a number on the Updates icon at the bottom; or maybe you can see a number on the App Store icon on the Home screen of your iPhone or iPad.

This might inspire you to take some action in App Store only to find some issues there. Moreover, your App Store may act weird when you try to explore Featured, Top Charts or Categories there.
