Can not update app because it was purchased with a different apple id

I just changed my apple id on iPhone.

It is obvious that I need my old apple id and password to update an app that was purchased with that old id which I am not currently using.

I entered the old apple id into the iPhone but still its not updating the app.

You need to log into the App Store using the old Apple ID and password in order to update the app.
