how to go further and get the App from IPhone on my PC?

That is the problem I had. I was trying to download free games from the Apple Store. So although Android running on the VM running on Windows 7 could browse to the App Store, it was a lot of trouble getting an Apple ID and then after the hardware wasn't recognised by the Apple store, I gave up.

But here are a couple of links about running Android on Windows that may be of help:

While IOS (the iPhone, iPad, iPod) operating system and OS X (the Mac OS) are similar, they are not compatible. You cannot run IOS apps on a OSX box - iMac, PowerBook, MacAir etc.

If you develop IOS apps using XCode on an OSX box, you can download IOS specific simulators to test against - but each release of IOS requires a simulator specific to that IOS version. Its not uncommon to have 5 or more simulators on a Mac to test against all the various IOS releases.

So why would you expect to be able to run them on a Windows virtual machine environment?

Quite simple I would have thought but as you say not to easy for everyone to do .. run the various iOS SDK's on Windows 7 with OS X Snow Leopard / 10.8 Mountain Lion via VMplayer ..
