Downloading Apps

When you find an app you want in the App Store, you can purchase and download it to iPhone. If the app is free, you can download it without charge.

Once you download an app, it’s immediately installed on iPhone.

Purchase and download an app:

1Tap the price (or tap Free), then tap Buy Now.

2Sign in using your Apple ID if requested, then tap OK.

If you don’t have an Apple ID, tap Create New Apple ID to set one up.

Downloads for purchase are charged to your Apple ID. For additional downloads made within the next fifteen minutes, you don’t have to enter your password again.

Some apps allow you to make purchases within the app. You can restrict in-app purchases in Settings. See “Restrictions” on page 196.

Some apps use push notifications to alert you of new information, even when the app isn’t running. Notifications vary depending on the app, but may include text or sound alerts, and an alert badge on the app icon on the Home screen. See “Notifications” on page 190.

You can redeem iTunes Store gift cards, gift certificates, or other promotional codes to make purchases. When you’re signed in, your remaining store credit appears with your Apple ID information at the bottom of most App Store screens.

Enter a redemption code: Tap Redeem near the bottom of the Featured screen, then follow the onscreen instructions.

See the status of downloading apps: After you begin downloading an app, its icon appears on the Home screen and shows a progress indicator.

If a download is interrupted, iPhone starts the download again the next time it has an Internet connection. Or, if you open iTunes on your computer, iTunes completes the download to your iTunes library (if your computer is connected to the Internet and signed in using the same Apple ID).
