  • However, your App Store will only keep track of the apps you've downloaded with the Apple ID you're currently logged into. This means you'll also see apps you downloaded on other iPhones with the same Apple ID.
  • If you want to see apps you downloaded on other Apple ID accounts, you'll need to log into them.

If you've recently bought a new iPhone , you might want to re-download all of your apps, especially if you didn't transfer them to the new device automatically.

If you're having trouble remembering what apps you had, you can view all the apps you've ever downloaded through the App Store at least, all the apps you've downloaded with your current Apple ID account.

If you want to see the apps you downloaded using a different Apple ID, you'll need to log out of your current account and log into your older one first. For information on how to do this, check out our article, " How to change your Apple ID on an iPhone ."

6. Under the "Not on this iPhone tab," you'll find all the apps you've had on previous devices, and apps you've deleted off of your current device.
