The app also now appears as an icon on the Downloads page in the Launcher, so you can open it from the Launcher as well. TIP If you delete a purchased application you can reinstall it without paying for it again (see Reinstall a deleted application). You can move to other screens and work in other applications while your new app downloads in the background. For example, find another app in App Catalog and start its download while the first download is finishing.
