Mac App Store is the simplest way to find and download apps for your Mac. To download apps from the Mac App Store, you need a Mac with OS X 10.6.6 or later. The Find My app combines Find My iPhone and Find My Friends into a single app for iOS 13, iPadOS, and macOS Catalina.
I just bought my MacBook Pro and I have an iPhone
I'm using the same apple store account
Anyway can I donwload the apps I have on my iPhone to my MacBook for free? Or Should I repay for getting them (they show me the price every time I look for any app I have on my iPhone)

It depends on the app. Some apps may have different versions that may be used on OSX, but not all apps that you have on your iPhone will be able to be used.
Unfortunately you can't simply download the apps and play them on your MacBook, nope!
Why is the App Store and apps different on the MacBook Pro 2015?
- Why do apps download on other devices when I download on my iphone? Okay so for the past few months I've downloaded some apps and I noticed that those same apps download on other devices such as my parents iPhones and iPads. How can I stop that from happening?
- Why are all the iphone apps I have ever downloaded saved on my macbook pro? There's 60GB of iphone apps stored on my macbook pro. It is taking up a lot of space and i was wondering if that is normal or something is wrong. Would it be alright if I deleted all of it and just backed up my phone to the cloud?
- ITunes won't download all the songs to my iphone 6s after transffering my list of songs from my old macbook to my PC I transferred my list of songs from my old Macbook to my PC with iTunes. For some reason, iTunes won't download ALL the songs to my iPhone 6s from my PC. For example if I want to download a whole album it will only download few songs from that album. Anyone know how to fix this problem? I also noticed how long it takes to download just few songs from my PC to my iphone 6s which is really frustrating.
- Is tbere any major différence between thé iPhone 6 and the 6s? Whooppeee is Xmas again and my daughter wants new 2nd hand) iPhone… 2 years ago almost bought her 5 before i réaliséd that it was 5s she wanted ( cos thé 5 sucks?) And I don't want to screw up this year…
With iOS 13 and iPadOS 13, apps and games that you download from the App Store are automatically updated by default. You won't see notifications about updating your apps. But you can also update apps manually. For example, if you want to force an update, you can update an app manually.
If you prefer to manually update all your apps, you can turn off automatic updates.
When you download an app on one device, the app isn't automatically installed on your other devices. But if you want apps that you purchase to be downloaded on all of your devices, you can turn on Automatic Downloads.
