iCloud glitch allows users to redownload banned apps

Apple has been known to pull apps from the App Store after their initial approval many times before, leaving those who purchased or downloaded them without the chance of receiving updates or getting them back should they later delete them. However, thanks to the new iCloud features Apple has brought to the App Store this week, a new glitch has surfaced that allows users to redownload and reinstall apps that have been banned.

Many different users have reported success in reacquiring banned apps, although apparently some apps are exempt from this glitch. However, if you happen to have purchased or downloaded an app that was subsequently pulled from the App Store and you would like to get it back, it is recommended you do so before this glitch gets fixed, which is likely to happen soon as the iCloud features are server-side and therefore do not require an iOS update to fix.
