Is there a way to transfer apps from my iPhone 5 to my Macbook Pro? So I will not have to repurchase them? (e.g. I have Pages on iPhone but not Mac, would I be able to download it again for free?)
Thanks in advance
Added (1). Also, when I go into the Mac App Store, Pages is still available only for the paid price? I assumed it would just say 'Download' or something. I mean the Mac equivalent of the iPhone apps, but just wondering if I can get them free?
That won't work, because iPhone and MacBook Pro are using different operating systems.
The iPhone version of Pages (or any other app) will not work on the Mac. They are completely different systems and need their own version of the app. Once an app is purchased it can be re-downloaded for free but the version for the Mac can't be downloaded after purchasing the iPhone version.
No you can't get the Mac versions of iPhone apps for free. The iPhone apps are designed specifically for the iPhone. They can't run natively on the Mac as standalone applications. At any rate the Mac applications are many times more powerful and contain more features. The reason the Mac App store says a price and is not available to download is because it is not the same program as the iPhone one. You can download the iPhone one as many times as you like from the iPhone app store within iTunes. If you want Mac apps you will have to pay for them. I'm surprised this is such a big deal for you, they don't exactly charge much for them.
Mac iPad Manager from 4easysoft.com is the best choice for Mac users who are iPhone fans.

Find your files

You can find locally stored files in On My [device], under Locations. On your iPad, simply drag files into the On My iPad folder to store them directly on your device. If you want to save a file locally on your iPhone or iPod touch, follow these steps.

Organize your files
It’s easy to organize all of the files stored in iCloud Drive — including Pages, Numbers, and Keynote documents. When you make changes on one device, your edits are automatically updated on every device using iCloud Drive.
You can make your own folders. Or rename the files and folders you already have when you press firmly on them.
Create new folders
- Go to Locations.
- Tap iCloud Drive, On My [device], or the name of a third-party cloud service where you want to keep your new folder.
- Swipe down on the screen.
- Tap More .
- Select New Folder.
- Enter the name of your new folder. Then tap Done.
On iOS 12 or earlier, tap New Folder . If you don't see New Folder or it's gray, then the third-party cloud service doesn't support new folders.
View your files by name, date, size, or the tags that you add. With colorful and custom labels, you can assign tags to your files any way that you like. That means you'll quickly find just the project or document you need.

Delete files
Select the files that you don't want anymore and tap Delete . If you delete files from the iCloud Drive folder on one device, they delete on your other devices too. iCloud Drive removes the files from every device that you're signed in to with the same Apple ID.
When you delete a file from iCloud Drive or On My [device], it goes into your Recently Deleted folder. If you change your mind or accidentally delete a file, you have 30 days to get it back. Go to Locations > Recently Deleted. Select the file that you want to keep and tap Recover. After 30 days, your files are removed from Recently Deleted.
You can also sign into iCloud.com from your Mac or PC, then go to iCloud Drive and check Recently Deleted.
Share folders and files with your friends or colleagues

You can share any folder or file stored in iCloud Drive directly from the Files app. In iCloud Drive, tap Select, choose the file or folder that you want to share, tap Share , and select Add People. You can share a folder or file through AirDrop, Messages, Mail, and more. Learn more about how folder sharing and file sharing work in iCloud Drive.
Or maybe you want to collaborate on a project in real time. The Files app lets you do that too with your Pages, Numbers, and Keynote documents. Select the file and tap Share or > Add People . You can invite them to collaborate through Messages, Mail, or copy and paste a link. Your participants are color-coded. And you can see when they're online, actively working on your shared document.
Use third-party apps in Files
The Files app lets you add your third-party cloud services — like Box, Dropbox, OneDrive, Adobe Creative Cloud, Google Drive, and more — so that you can access all of your files on all of your devices. The files you keep in iCloud Drive automatically appear in the Files app, but you need to set up your other cloud services to access them in the Files app too.
