If I've purchased apps on my iPhone, do I have to repurchase them for my iPad?
I have apps on my iPhone 4. Do I need to repurchase them for my iPad? (Hoping for a mini, but may get a 2 or 4)
MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7)

No. As long as the apps will work on the iPad - meaning that you are running the same iOS needed to use the iPhone apps on the iPad. But you do not have to purchase them again.
iPhone only apps will appear in the iPhone screen size on the iPad but you can double the size of most of those apps by tapping on the 2x in the bottom corner of the screen to enlarge the app.

All your apps will work on your Ipad. Most are universal, so they work with both ipad/phone/pod. Some apps are Ipad only apps. Some are Iphone only apps, but will run on Ipad. Just smaller like a phone screen on your Ipad. You will see when you get it....Iphone only apps are a lot smaller...even when you hit 2X to blow it up, they look bad.
Again, dont worry most are universal. On itunes you can see if the app is universal by a little plus sign in the corner where the price is. Or under your library it will sort them Iphone apps, Iphone and Ipad apps etc.
No, you can either re-download them (for free) via the App Store app on the iPad (re-downloading), or you can copy them from your iPhone to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases and then sync them to the iPad (there are some iPhone-only apps that won't sync e.g. those that require full phone capability)
No, you don't need to re-purchase them for your iPad. As long as you sign into your iCloud on your iPad using the same Apple ID as yout iPhone, then you can either re-download them for free from your iPad, or connect to iTunes and sync your purchased apps to iPad.
Thank you all for your quick responses.
