Hello everyone. I hope everyone is enjoying getting new iPhones today. I am getting an 8 and was wondering if I could sync using iTunes 12.6 instead of 12.7. I do not have iTunes 12.7 yet and really don't want it because of the App Store removal. I sync my phone through iTunes and can choose what apps I want updated vs not updated.

Also, if I have to get iTunes 12.7 can I still backup and restore my new phone through iTunes? I can't believe Apple would do this. I wouldn't mind if they gave us a separate iOS App store where we can manage our Apps instead of on the phone.

Thanks everyone for your help!
