    Hello there, Steve.gies.

     

    If you've purchased the iWork applications for iOS, you should not have to re-purchase them for use on the iPad. The following Knowledge Base article offers up steps on how to download previously purchased apps to your iOS device:

     

    Download past purchases - Apple Support

     

    Before you begin

    1. Sign in with the Apple ID that you used for the original purchase. Use these steps to see which Apple ID you used to download an item.
    2. See if the content is available for redownload. Previously purchased items might not be available if they're no longer on the iTunes Store. If you changed your Apple ID from one country to another, you can’t download items you purchased in a previous country.

    If you're using Family Sharing, you can use these steps to download your family member's content.

    Download previous purchases on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    Make sure your iOS device meets these system requirements:

    • iOS 4.3.3 or later
      You need iOS 5 or later to download items to iPhone (CDMA model).
    • iBooks 3.0 or later to download books

     

    Apps

        1. Tap App Store.
        2. If you're using an iPhone or iPod touch, tap Updates, then tap Purchased.
          If you're using an iPad, tap Purchased.
          Menu bar on iOS device
        3. Find the item that you want to download.
        4. Tap the Download icon. After the app downloads, you can open it from the Home screen.

     

    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

     

    Cheers,

    Pedro
