iOS App Store Now Lets You View Your App Purchase History [updated: iTunes too]

By

Looks like the small tweaks are starting to roll in. A couple of our Twitter followers sent us pictures of a new feature for the App Store on their iPhones that allows them to view their recent app purchase. The app lets you view not only what you’ve purchased, but also what apps aren’t installed on the current iOS device you’re using.


Now, I’m not sure about most people, but I find myself sharing apps with a couple of my friends who have recently purchased iPhones. Having been an iPhone user since the first model came out, I’ve downloaded a ton of apps but can’t remember them all when a friend asks me what apps they should try out. This new feature, while incredibly simple, could prove to be particularly useful in a lot of different circumstances.

How about you? Do you and your friends share apps?

update: The change has also been reflected in the iTunes app as well. Twitter user bacichon sent in some pics to show that you can now download previous iTunes music purchases to your phone as well.
