purchased apps on multiple iphones

[burnsaa]

Well I wasnt sure if apple was going to let you do this but apparently they are so thats nice. I got super monkey ball earlier today and loaded it onto my iPhone and just updated the wifes iPhone with 2.0 and it shows the apps that have been downloaded in her iPhone settings as well so I was able to synch it to hers. I guess it goes to show that when you expect the worst every once in a while you get a nice suprise

One way of doing it is going into another computer that has iTunes on it and login to your iTunes account on there and making that computer a authorized computer. You can do this with 5 different computers. Then sync the other persons phone and when they go into the app store on their phone they have to enter your password because it is using your iTunes account. Just that it is now on their iPhone as well. And once you go to download apps as long as they were purchased already they will re-download for free... simple. I would only do this if it is a person you really trust.

I've been putting the .aap files on an SD card then dragging them into the other person's library. Then double clicking on it and entering my password and making it an authorized comp..

biggest downside is that you cannot update the programs!!! such a limitation!

If you do it like described above you will have no issue updating the apps.

Yep that works too I guess. We just use the same computer and both use the same itunes account so it makes it even easier.

Good thinking, I hope apple can do it

I am thinking about getting my kids an iPod Touch for Xmas. I have a lot of games on my iPhone 3G and I'm wondering: How hard is it to put those apps on the iPod Touch?

I believe if you set up the iPod touch with your iTunes account you might be able to put them on.

Unless you hack the device I don't think you can install it on another device without paying again
