If you’re tired of entering your password every time you download a free app from the App Store on your iPhone or iPad, then this post is for you. In this guide, we’ll show you how to turn off the password prompt and make the downloading process smoother.
Firstly, we recommend turning off Face ID or Touch ID on your device before proceeding. To do this, go to the Settings app on your iPhone and scroll to “Face ID & Passcode”. Enter your passcode, then turn off the toggle for “iTunes & App Store”. If you don’t have Face ID or Touch ID enabled on your iPhone, skip this step.
Next, reopen the Settings app on your iPhone and tap on your profile name at the top. Scroll to the “Media & Purchases” option, then select “Password Settings”. Disable the “Require Password” toggle to turn off the password prompt. For privacy reasons, we recommend turning on the password requirement for purchases. Tap on “Done” to save the changes.
Now you don’t need to enter a password to download free apps from the App Store on your iPhone or iPad. To test it out, try downloading a free app like the Live Wallpaper app, and click on the “Install” button when prompted. The download will start automatically.
If turning off the password prompt didn’t work, you can try resetting all settings on your iPhone. Don’t worry; this option won’t erase your media files or data. To reset all settings, go to the Settings app on your iPhone, scroll to “General”, then “Reset”. Tap on “Reset All Settings,” enter your passcode, and verify the reset. Your iPhone will reboot, and you can try the second solution again.
We hope this post helped you turn off the password prompt for free app downloads. If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to leave a comment below.
