The new iTunes focuses on music, movies, TV shows, podcasts, and audiobooks. Apps for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch are now exclusively available in the new App Store for iOS. And the new App Store makes it easy to get, update, and redownload apps—all without a Mac or PC.

Manage media, files, and other content on your iOS device
Connect your iOS device to your computer with a USB cable to sync music, movies, TV shows, and audiobooks using iTunes. You can also back up your device using iTunes.
If you want to copy files between your computer and apps on your iOS device, use File Sharing.
You can find iOS apps, ringtones, and books (PC only) that you've already downloaded in your iTunes Media folder.
If you have an iOS app, ringtone, or book that's no longer available for redownload, you can move that content to your iOS device while plugged in to a computer with a USB cable.
