Sep 24, 2015 7:13 AM in response to chakrabarti.arnabby itzyaboyimo,if you attempt to download the app, it will tell you that it is greater than 100mb and needs wifi. but the app will appear on your home screen, pending download. at that phone, if you soft reset the phone, it will download over the cellular network

this 100mb limit is just stone age. I just came across it, and it makes my life miserable.
forced by my company to use an iPhone 6 I am reconsidering this ecosystem.
i am on the move for my company and have a sizeable volume. We talk gigabytes....
none of my various android devices were limited in this.
you won't win customers by setting them in cages.
btw I m writing from the Netherlands.

Oct 22, 2015 8:07 AM in response to Manthony6567by SATTAPAAL,THIS IS ACTUALLY WORKING ON IOS 9.1 - Thought it would be a dud! Wicked!

Nov 11, 2015 1:24 PM in response to SATTAPAALby dstrahm,But you have to be connected to WiFi to download the 9.1 update!!
But if it actually removes the limit or rasies it significantly that will be helpful. Apple has always tried to be helpful to those that do not have Steve Jobs' intellect by doing things for them and not allowing them to "hurt" themselves. Nice sometimes, frustrating on most occasions.

Nov 11, 2015 2:37 PM in response to chakrabarti.arnabby JC___,HI, yes the annoying 100mb download. I've still been able to download bigger apps such as pages on my wifi/cellular iPad Air 2. Go into settings-mobile data-use mobile data for ..and check App Store is turned on. If it won't download then yeah hook up wifi or personal hotspot with your iPhone, but make sure you have enough data available

Dec 10, 2015 10:50 AM in response to JC___by S_Edwards,You don't even have to do that. I have a 6+ that is happily downloading a 200+MB app right now over my cellular connection. The reboot trick still works in iOS 9.1.
Click app to download/update. Click OK on annoying popup message and see "Waiting..." underneath app's icon on home screen (I tried this with the app in a folder and it seemed to not want to cooperate). Reboot phone then wait.. App changed and started showing download progress. Just finished updating and has the blue dot next to it to show it's new.

Jan 28, 2016 7:16 PM in response to Star Travelerby huilie,To be fair, I just found out that when you discard the message about not being able to download an app over 100MB and then start it again with an iPhone 6S and iOS 9.2 it starts anyway. But that still leaves my complaint that it pretends that it isn't possible at first. Furthermore, I also just found out that an iOS updat actually does require a WiFi connection. I could imagine that due to technical difficulties that's always necessery, but if not, it begs the same question: why am I nnot able to update the iOS through cellular data?

Mar 30, 2016 12:39 AM in response to chakrabarti.arnabby Hazem Midani,HI. To go over this problem, since you have a unlimited cellular internet. Connect your iPad with your phone through bluetooth ! And your phone as the personal hotspot. Now, you can download items over 100 mb simpy to your IPa. Hope this is clear.
BEst regards.

Jun 3, 2016 10:04 PM in response to Ehatmohby UZMalik,Just waisted hard-earned 1 grand on ipad pro to find out it can't download over 100mb over mobile network. Should have stayed in windows/android world.
