Can i back up all my iphone apps?

I heard that itunes no longer backs up the iphone apps with itunes. How can I back up my apps to my PC?

If the ipa files are on your computer, back those up normally.

If the unit is running an OS version older than 9.0 and you're using a version of iTunes below 12.7, use the Transfer Purchases function.

Otherwise, you can't. Creating a backup will include their data, and ones still available in the App Store will be downloaded while restoring it.
