I have installed python 3.9 in Ubuntu, because it comes with python 3.8 which is an older version.

I changed the command for terminal alias python 3 = python 3.9, but when I installed pip, it installed for python 3.8 and after that when I am using pip install to install python packages, it installs for python 3.8. How can I fix it?

try with pip3 install

This kind of issue even happened to my case when I was working with the python modules recently on my project. Try this out it worked for me.

Due to variations in the installation process of python, pip often requires different ways to access for different people. A few examples that may help you include pip3 install, py pip install py -3 pip install or python3 pip install. Usually one of these works for me.
