I need my minecraft back

My minecraft kept crashing so I tried to reinstall it but it costs another $10.95. I just wanna know if there’s any other way to reinstall the app.

You may be able to just re-download a previously purchased app:

See how to:

Redownload apps and games for your Apple devices from the App Store

Eg: says:

"You can redownload apps in the App Store.


How to redownload apps on iPhone or iPad

  1. Open the App Store app.
  2. Tap the My Account button (circled person icon) or your photo at the top of the screen, tap Apps & Purchase History, then tap Your Apps.
  3. If you’re part of a Family Sharing group, tap My Apps or choose a family member’s name to see content they purchased.
  4. Tap "Not on this [device]".
  5. Find the app that you want to download, then tap the Redownload button" (cloud with a down-arrow icon)


If you encounter any difficulties:

The latest update has killed everyone's install on iPads. Everyone is just waiting for Mojang to fix it.
