Apps not downloading on both iPhone 16 plus & iPad 10th generation

When getting apps using iPhone 16 Plus - the app downloads to my iPhone but does not also load on my iPad 10th generation. How do I correct this issue?

Perhaps you anticipate that an App, when purchased, will automatically download to both your iPad and iPhone. This behaviour is controlled from your device settings. On both your iPad and iPhone:


iOS/iPadOS 18.x

Settings > Apps > App Store > [Automatic Downloads] App Downloads - set to ON


iOS/iPadOS 17.x and earlier

Settings > App Store > [Automatic Downloads] App Downloads - set to ON
