Unable to download app to iPhone

Question

When I try to download x-plane from the app store to my iphone6s I get a message stating that “This download is over 150mb, unless this is an incremental update it may not download until you connect to wi-fi”.  I have an unlimited data contract but i have no access to wi fi. How do I download it?

Answer 1

As far as I know, there is no restriction like that built into the app itself. It sounds like a general device setting. You may need to change your device preferences to allow you to download it anyway, or bypass that type of warning. It sounds like a safety feature to prevent unexpected & large fees from data use.

I found this info online about this message: https://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/iosapps/how-download-apps-over-100mb-on-your-iphone-or-ipad-3663056/
