However, in iOS 13, Apple lifted this restriction. Now, by enabling an option under in Settings, you can download apps bigger than 200MB using mobile data. This feature carried over to iOS 14 as well.

The feature that prevents you from downloading apps over 200MB without Wi-Fi is meant to be a safeguard for iPhone users. It is meant to prevent you from using all your data downloading really large apps.

I am using Zwift App version 1.21.2. an IPad Air with IOS 15.3.
And Companion App v 3.32.0 in an Iphone 12 Pro Max with IOS 15.3
Both in the Same wifi network (a tplink mesh wifi network with 200mb stable internet)

Provide access to *.apple.com as it is required to initiate app installation. This error also occurs if the user repeatedly enters wrong App Store. You can prevent this error, by installing apps without requiring App Store account as explained

If the size of the app that you are distributing to the devices is over 200 MB, then Apple does not allow these apps do be installed over mobile data. The device must be connected to a Wi-fi to initiate the app installation. Use either of the following steps check the app size:

When an app is distributed to unsupervised devices, the user will be prompted to initiate the app installation. If the user declines the installation by clicking cancel, this error occurs. You can prevent this error, by supervising the device and installing apps without requiring App Store account as explained here.

I'd noticed the same thing over the last couple weeks (though not to the extreme it affected you). What was even stranger is that when looking at my carrier's usage reports, it was showing 300-600+ MB transfers at 4am - when I am quite sure I was fast asleep and my device was connected to wifi. I think I found the solution though - I'll know for sure over the next couple days. First - go to Settings -> Cellular -> System Services (all the way at the bottom). In there it shows a breakdown - for me the killer was Documents and Sync. Per instructions found on Apple's website via Google, I turned off Use Cellular Data for iDrive (Settings -> iCloud -> iCloud Drive -> toggle Use Cellular Data (all the way at the bottom). To be honest, I hadn't noticed this the first few days of having the beta (I was on the public beta at the time), but after I installed macOS Sierra, I turned on iCloud Drive for Desktop and Documents, and that's when I noticed the cellular data usage blowing up. Could just be a coincidence though.

Apple has made a slight change this week, allowing users to download apps or games that are up to 200MB in size over a cellular network from the App Store. This means that if an update shows up and you are not connected to a WiFi network, you can casually give it a download. Previously, this limit was capped at 150MB.

Weirdly enough, if you have an iPhone that is tethered to an iPad, you can go ahead and download apps, games, movies or TV shows without worrying about cellular data limits at all. This works the other way around too, if your iPad is tethered to an iPhone.

Other than that, if your app is over 10MB, users will only be able to download it over a wifi connection, having the impact that users won't be able to download your application easily when they are out and about.

Yeah, Phil is right, when you app is over 10MB, it can only be downloaded via wifi or iTunes. Quite a lot users may want to download anywhere they like using 3G networks, so >10MB is not recommended.
