My apps won't automatically download on my phone, they will only download onto the computer. what do i do to fix this?

I try to download an app from the app store onto my phone but the icon just says "waiting...". the apps will only download to my laptop through iCloud. how do i change this?

Hi there marilyn248!
I've got some articles that should be able to help you with the issue you are experiencing. The article is about finding your past purchases through you iTunes account, and can be found here:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
You will want to pay close attention to which iTunes account you are signed into on both your computer and your iPhone, and make sure you are signed into the same one that was used to make the purchases. You will then be able to download the purchases directly to your phone without syncing to your computer. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
Regards,
Braden
