I was unable to update my applications for a week because of Error Checking for Updates on Google Play Store Application. The first thing that came to my mind was because of intermittent internet connection due to the bad weather we've been experiencing here in the province.
But yesterday I found a solution which I want to share it with you if you are having the same problem. Here's how to fix it on Android phones, I suggest clearing cache and data from the Google Play Store application.
1. On your Android phone go to your Settings
2. Tap on Apps & notifications (Permissions, Default apps)
