Apple is no longer allowing users to update or reinstall an app they've had refunded, notes
Michael Simmons of Flexibits.

Users who try to update are now greeted with the following message:

Update Unavailable with This Apple ID
This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled.


Notably, this also appears to be the case with Mac App Store applications.
