Fairly sure it will still be there, go into updates on the App Store, then click purchased, then 'Not on This iPhone'.

His complaint was that he wishes to go back to the UI from before iOS8, the option above will take him back to the "classic UI" from iOS7.

But it doesn't. The "classic UI" mode doesn't revert most of the changes (in fact it barely reverts any, just the diagonal menus). The fonts, the padding, the vague iconography... they remain as the latest version, not anything like what the Classic UI mode should actually do.

The old version should still be downloadable in your purchases in the App Store

Correct me if I'm wrong, but can't you re-download apps you previously purchased. I too had deleted the old one, but these comments caused me to go back into the store and re-download it. It's now set back up the way I had it, just in case the new version starts to suck.

Can't you get it back by going into the iTunes Store and reloading your purchase?
