    Hello there, Aimy.

     

    It sounds like you are having an issue downloading a previously purchased app onto you're new iPhone 6. The following Knowledge Base article goes over how to redownload and speaks about in-app purchases as well:

     

    Download past purchases from iTunes - Apple Support

     

    Redownload an app

    On an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    1. Tap App Store.
    2. On an iPhone or iPod touch: Tap Updates, then tap Purchased.
      On an iPad: Tap Purchased.
    3. Scroll to find the app that you want to download.
    4. Tap the Download icon  . After the app downloads, you can open it from your Home screen.

    Redownload in-app purchases

    Some in-app purchases like game currency or hints are consumable, which means that they run out as you use them. You can only restore non-consumable purchases. Learn more about in-app purchases.

     

    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

     

    Cheers.
