Logo (or "turtle" based visual languages) do exist on the App Store, there are a few examples (searching "turtle programming ios" gave me a few)

https://turtle360.net/ seemed pretty good.

Scratch also does:

Both are programming languages and both predate the (Apple) App store.

Logo: 1967

Scratch: 2007

Apple App Store: 2008
