Turn off the iphone. Open itunes in your computer. Click Store>Check for Available Downloads

Connect the iphone and sync the app to the iphone from itunes.

Hopefully this will help.

Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
