Do I have to purchase the same app twice?!

I purchased Cut The Rope HD for my iPad a while ago. I'm planning to get an iPhone, I see that Cut The Rope HD is not compatible with iPhone. Does this mean that if I want Cut The Rope to work on my iPhone, I have to purchase it a second time?!

It depends on how the developer creates it :
they can either create an iPhone/iPod version that will work on the iPad but will only take up an iPhone sized portion of the screen;
or they can create an iPad-only version that won't work on an iPhone or iPod;
or they can create a 'universal' version that will work on both the iPhone/iPod and iPad but will make full use of the iPad's larger screen.
But if the developer creates two separate apps for the iPod/iPhone and iPad then you will need to buy both if you want to have both.

    i want to buy a iPad2 to go along with my mac desktop and iPhone, do I have to repurchase the same apps. to put on my iPad?

    You can use most of the apps that you bought for your iPhone on the iPad as well. Sometimes the apps are not optimized for the iPad's larger display. Sometimes the apps are limited to the iPhone and you must purchase a separate iPad version. As with your iPhone, Mac apps cannot be used on an iOS device.

    Likelyhood is, if they are convinced it was an accident they will refund.   But its not something you can rely on.

  • If I already have a particular app under one apple Id and I purchase the same app under a different Id for the same device, will it overwrite or replace the previous or will I have two of the same app on the same device??

    If I already have a particular app under one apple Id and I purchase the same app under a different Id for the same device, will it overwrite or replace the previous or will I have two of the same app on the same device?? 
    I'm asking because I purchased an app with an id that has been cancelled so I cannot update that particular app. I can purchase the app with my new id but I don't want to do so if its going to erase all the data I have with the previous purchase...

    Figured it out. Thanks.

  • I can not purchase the same apps as my friend purchased using his ID on my ipad

    My ipad was borrowed by my friend, then he signed in to the itunes using his ID and purchased some apps on my ipad.
    But now i have signed back using my ID in itunes on my ipad.
    The problem is now using my ipad i can not purchase the same apps that he already purchased using his account.
    On the itunes store showing as if i have purchased the apps then a pop up message said
    "UPDATE IS unvailable with this apple ID
    This update is downloaded with a different apple ID. Sign in with that apple ID and try again."
    I have reset my ipad and i also have reset all setting in the setting options but it still doesnt help a bit
    Can someone please help me with this issue?
    Thank you

    Is the app currently on your iPad ? If it is then delete it. Then try a soft-reset (i.e. reboot) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear (you won't lose any content).
    After the iPad has restarted if you then go into the App Store app are you able to buy and download it with your account ?

  • I just want to kno how many time do I have to buy the same app?

    how many time do I have to buy the same app?

    You are going to have to articulate a little more clearly what your issue is. General statements like buying the same app every year is not helpful.
    What, exactly is your issue? What Apps are you having to buy over and over? If you cannot take the time to describe your problem fully and clearly, then we can't help you.

  • How to down load the same app twice to home page

    How do I download the same app twice so I have both on my home screen.  I want to monitor cameras at 2 different locations and need to have 2 apps to load seperate info into each.  When I try to down load the app for the 2nd time the only option is to REPLACE the current app with the same one. Anyone have any ideas?

    Yeah, too bad the app won't let you switch between locations.  I don't think you can have 2 instances of the app running on the BB.  I'm not developer, but I've never seen that before.
