Technically, I think it's the current version of an app for that particular device. I read somewhere that Apple allowed multiple versions of an app to exist in the App Store to support older devices . Here's an article that talks about this a bit more http://www.engadget.com/2013/09/17/apple-ios-last-compatible-version-app-iphone-ipod-ipad/

Hi,

Thanks for clarifying this for me. That's what I thought. The reason that I 
posted this is that there is a recent post in using the cloud to restore a new 
iDevice, whatever it is using iCloud. Others need to be clear that the current 
version of an app will be placed on the new device and that some apps become 
broken when a new version is released. I just wanted others to know this before 
using the cloud.

Thanks.

Best,
Eileen

I think you have this right.  If you restore from the cloud, you always get the 
most recent version of an app.  I remember Jonathan Mosen reported this a while 
back.

Hello,

I am posting a new thread for clarification. It is my understanding that if one 
chooses to restore from the cloud that the apps placed on the new device will 
be the current version of an app. First, Is this true? And, if one wants 
certain apps to be an older versions that one should restore from iTunes. 
Further explanation of this would be terrific, as I will be purchasing a new 
phone in the near future.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Eileen
