Just noticed last night!

I purchased an App on computer with iTunes and rather than hook up iPhone to computer, wnet to the App store on iPhone to download app.

Previously, I would be told you have already purchased app, do you want to download again Yes, No. Last night I was advised, if you download again, you will be charged! That has never happenned before

So, watch out
 
NO you will NOT be charged again.. i have done it MANY MANY times'.. it says you have already downloaded it would you like to download it again for FREEE.
 
Um, no it didn't. Any app purchased AT ALL, whether it be on you computer or iPhone, is available for free next time you download it. You WILL NOT be charged.

As long as your computer and iPhone are set up with the same iTunes account, you won't be charged.

Your post is false.
 
ok i re read your post and i know what your talking about... its eaither a free app which this has happened to me also. or the app you purchased you deleted and are trying to redownload it and if they raised or lowered the price you WILL have to pay again

Even if the price has changed it shouldnt cost to download it again.

Not only shouldn't you have to pay to download it again, you won't have to pay again, regardless of what has happened to the price since you got it the first time. Provided, as another poster said, that you download from the same iTunes account that you used to get it the first time.
 
I just did this (because flight control was not showing the update in app update:rolleyes:) and did not have to pay.
 
This may be a *little* off-topic, but it has to do with purchasing Apps so I guess it's ok (and better to ask here than to start a whole new thread just for a simple answer).

Is there any way to download something using money from an iTunes giftcard AND a bank account?

I want to download Zenonia but I'm $0.20 short (yes, really).

yes, they'll just charge the balance to your card, in this case $0.20.
