App Store

About the App Store

Use the App Store to add apps to iPad. Browse, purchase, and download apps

specically designed for iPad, or for iPhone and iPod touch.

Apps you download from the App Store and install on iPad are backed up to your

iTunes library the next time you sync. When you sync, you can also install apps on iPad

that you purchase through iTunes on your computer. iPad works with most iPhone and

iPod touch apps, so if you already have apps for your iPhone or iPod touch, you can

sync them to iPad from your Mac or PC. Use them at their original size, or tap in the

lower-right corner of the screen to expand them.

Note: The App Store and some apps are not available in all areas. App availability and

pricing are subject to change.

To use the App Store, iPad must have an Internet connection. See “Connecting to the

Internet” on page 28. You also need an Apple ID (not available in some countries) to

download apps. iPad gets your Apple ID settings from iTunes. If you don’t have an

Apple ID, or if you want to make purchases using a dierent Apple ID, go to Settings >

Store. See “Store” on page 15 7.

Browse Featured to see new, notable, or recommended apps, or browse Top Charts to

see the most popular applications. If you’re looking for a specic app, use Search.
