Not always, a lot of apps are universal and can be installed on both iPhones and iPads, with the UI being adapted to each.

Oh interesting. If there is a separate install is it still potentially a universal all? I guess I was wrong.

I'm not sure I understand the question. You need to install it on both your iPhone and your iPad for sure. But universal apps are the exact same binary. But a lot of developers prefer to create 2 different app, 1 for iPhone and 1 for iPad for various reasons; charging separately for each being one possible reason.
