Steps to download apps to your iPhone 6
Since this is the first time you use iPhone, you’ll need a little further setting up to do with regard to your Apple ID before downloading any app on the App store. Worry not! Below we have listed all you need to do to get your iPhone ready for shopping in the App store:
- Tap on the App Store icon on the home screen.
- Featured apps page will appear. You will see what apps are currently being promoted, either by Apple themselves or by apps developers. Tap on Categories at the top left, which breaks up the store into broadly titled, easily navigated sections. To return to the Featured apps page you can tap cancel at the top.
- At the lowest part of the main page you will see links to various sections of the App Store. Featured you’ve already seen, and Top Chart is pretty self – explanatory – quick access to “top 40” style lists of free and paid apps for you to scroll through. Explore allows you to see the famous apps or what people nearby are downloading, which can be quite useful to help you decide your choice. If you tap on Search at the bottom will allow you to enter the name of the app you’re looking for. And the last is Updates, where you can manage your apps and install updates.
- Whatever you type into the box of the Search causes results to auto-fill on the page. You can see the screen shot below for the explanation:
- Tapping on the search suggestion opens up a results page for that search. If you want to see further information about the apps, you can tap the name of the app to see a detailed page of screenshots, reviews and ratings for that app.
- After you decided to install an app, tap on the free button. If there is a price button, your linked payment card will be charged for the app. If you don’t have a payment method set up, you will need to do this before downloading the app.
- After the Install button appeared, tap on this to start the download.
- You will be asked to enter your Apple ID password in the box to authorize the download, which also acts as payment authorization if the app is chargeable. You will be able to download without entering password if you have already signed in with your Apple ID within the last 15 minutes.
- If you have turned on the Touch ID, then you may be given the option to use your fingerprint to authorize the download.
- You will see a blue progress indicator in the shape of circle when the app is downloading. You can pause or restart the download by tapping on this progress indicator for any reason. After the download progress has been completed, the progress indicator will change into an Open button to allow you to access the app. The app will appear in your home screen space after it has been successfully installed.
After shopping on the App Store, press the home button to go back to your home screen. Swipe across to see your newly installed apps. But if you wish to get another app, you may go back to App Store and repeat the listed steps above.
That’s what you need to know about HOW TO DOWNLOAD APPS TO YOUR IPHONE 6. Maybe you will need any longer to download an app at the first time, but gradually you will find yourself familiar with all the steps which enable you to do it faster.
This is your time to have fun with all the apps available on the store, but remember to be wise. You won’t be shocked of losing too much budget for your careless shopping way, will you?
