2. Plug in your device - iPhone 13 or iPad - to your computer using a suitable cable.

3. Get your focus back to iTunes. Click on the View menu in the iTunes app and select Show Sidebar. What it will do is it will show the sidebar in the iTunes app which will appear in the left-hand side of the app.

4. When the sidebar appears, find the device you're having the app sync issue with. Once you have found that, right-click on the device name and select the option that says Transfer Purchases.

The transfer purchases option should transfer all of the purchases and downloads you have done on your device over to the iTunes app on your computer. That way, both your device and the app will be in sync and will have all the apps there in them.
