Q: can you use the itunes gift card to pay for apps, too?

Can you use the itunes gift card to pay for apps, too? I can only seem to make it work for movies, music, and shows. Do I need an apple gift card to get the apps? Thanks!

I've used iTunes gift cards to purchase apps from the App Store and from the Mac App Store (as well as music, films and tv shows from iTunes), so you should be able to use them to buy apps.

    Can I use an iTunes Gift Card or Apple Store Gift Card to make purchases on the Mac App Store?

     

    iTunes Gift Cards can be used to make purchases from the Mac App Store. Apple Store Gift Cards are redeemable in Apple retail stores, and may not be used on the Mac App Store.
