Purchased Apps

I purchased an app on my iMac and it's compatible on my iPad but I can't download it. I had already downloaded the app before on the iPad and later I purchased on the iMac. Now I can't get the purchased app to work on the iPad. I have family Sharing On, I am signed in as myself on both the iMac and the iPad. Any help will be appreciated.


iMac 21.5″, macOS 11.6

Mac apps and iPad apps are coded differently and are two different apps with two individual purchases .


If you purchased the Mac version of an iOS App, you will need to purchase the iOS version of the app, as well.
