Jul 3, 2017 at 9:09 comment added jakethedog @Dai In your example, moving to a new device, it is possible to move thinned apps if it is the same device model. Say, you break your iPhone7 screen and get a new iPhone7. If, however, you want to move from an iPhone 6S to an iPhone 7 you must have the full unthinned app in iTunes.
Jul 3, 2017 at 8:12 comment added Dai Developers can always remove their apps from the app store where it's impossible to download them again - so what happens if you paid a lot of money for a now-discontinued app on an iOS 9 (or later) device and need to move it to a new device?
