Now that more program's are being converted to iPhone, iPod and iPad apps
many of them lack instructions. It's no use downloading instructions for a
keyboard operated game if you are using it on the iPad.
Manufactures of apps should include instructions on how to operate the app.
One example is the app Trainz. When you click on help you get instructions
that applies to a computer with a keyboard.

Maybe. A well written App is usually quite "self explanatory" or
otherwise intuitive. Some require a bit of experimentation. Some do
require their usually included FAQ/help pages or links.

They often do just that.
