How to download my first free app

Hi
I've just purchased my first iphone and am trying to download a free app but I'm being asked for my bank details, is this correct?
If so do you know why as its supposed to be free?
Many thanks
SP

You will need to setup an Apple ID in iTunes and choose the option to not have a credit card.   Then you will be able to download free apps.
I don't think you can do this on your phone, instead you need to do on a PC

  • How can I only allow free apps to be downloaded?

    How can I only allow free apps to be downloaded to my IPhone 4S?

    Sorry, but there's no way I know of to restrict downloading to free apps only. You can turn off purchasing of apps completely, but if purchasing is allowed, it's open other than by age range. You can of course remove any purchase method, but I don't believe that blocks the purchase; you just end up owing money.
    Regards.

    How to download non-Apple store apps on iMac 10.8. I want to transfer photos from a Samsung Galaxy S4 to the iMac.

    If your Mac is not allowing you to download 3rd party apps that are from a source other than the Mac App Store, it is likely the security setting in System Preferences. Go to Sys Prefs/Security & Privacy/General and set the download options best for you. You will likely find the download options grayed out. You will need to click the padlock below and supply your admin password to unlock the preference pane.

  • How do I get a free app from the US store as it's not in the UK store and it says my UK id is not valid?

    how do I get a free app from the US store, as it's not in the UK store, and it say my id is not valid when I swich stores?

    To be able to use the US store you will need to be in the US and have a US billing address on your account. You can try requesting that it be added to the UK store, but unless the app's developer agrees to it then Apple won't be able to put it in the UK store : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

    How do I delete a free app from my iPad

    Press and hold any app until they all wiggle.
    Delete the ones you don't want by pressing the X.
    You can also move them around and create folders while they wiggle.
    Press the Home button when done.

  • How can I try non free apps before buy them?

    Well the question is simple: How can I try non free apps before buy them?
    thanks

    That's why some developers offer a free "light" version after which you then either buy a full version or add features via an in-app purchase. But if the developer doesn't offer such a limited version, then there is no way to try an app before paying for it, and no refunds unless the app is defective or falsely advertised.
    Regards.

    "App world"? That is for Blackberry devices.
    If you're trying to download apps for the iPhone from anywhere other than Apple's own AppStore, you can't.
