App store requires Apple ID password despite having all the corresponding settings adjusted.

I have found a solution!

Go into Settings > Face ID & Passcode > (enter passcode) > Toggle off and on again iTunes and App Store > (it will prompt you to sign in with your Apple ID password again)

Now go to your App Store and try it out 🙂

This worked for me except I didn’t have to do all the steps. I just signed out under settings and signed back in. Works fine now with Face ID.

Problem: I couldn’t download any apps. After I put in password, it would act like it was ready to load the app then ask for my password again, over and over. (iPhone 13 pro.)

Confirm. Same issue on iPhone 14 after update and my girlfriend’s iPhone 13 same issue. This seems as global bug that should be addressed and fixed asap.

UPDATE: this fixed it for me, Step #3 was the differentiator for me.

1. Make sure you are updated to 17.2 or later.
2. Go to Settings >> FaceID + Passcode >> Toggle OFF iTunes and App Store.
3. Shut down the device. Wait a few seconds. Restart the device.
4. Once restarted, Toggle ON iTunes and App Store... it will ask you to enter your password.
5. Now, test that it works by downloading an app from the App Store and it should work properly now (i.e. Ask you to double-click the side button).

Same problem herr brand new iphone 15 Pro max… apple can you fix this…

Just did this. Worked perfectly. TYVM😊

I just got this work!!! Here is what i done step by step:

1. I created new appleID
2. Logout my main apple ID on appstore
3. Log-in new appleID
4. Download couple softwares using password then appstrore start asking faceID
5. Logout new appleID
6. Log-in your main ID
7. Download couple softwares using password
8. BOOM Appstore starts asking my Face-ID!!!

Same problem here. Tried the Mophles recommendation didn't work. Extremely in convenient after not using your password for so many years going back and typing it every time.

Did this. Worked perfectly. I’ve been googling for days and this is only thing that worked!!! Piece of cake. TYVM🤓

I’m sorry my solution didn’t work for you as well. Whatever is happening it shouldn’t be anyway, so I hope it gets fixed soon!

Just go to “Face ID & Passcode”, enter your passcode then make sure “iTunes & App Store” is toggled on. If it is already on, then just toggle it off and toggle it back on again. Then restart your app store. Doing this worked for me. Now new apps will download with face ID authorization instead of requiring a typed in password everytime.

The solution for me was as follows:

1- Turn off "iTunes & App Store" option in "Face ID & Passcode" in "Settings".

2- sign out of Apple ID in App Store.

3- sign out of Apple ID in Settings.

4- turn off phone and wait one min and turn it on.

5- sign in Apple ID in settings.

6- when you sign in Apple ID in settings ,phone ask you to sign in for App Store automatically.

7- when you go to Face ID & Passcode in see that "iTunes & App Store" option activated (if not active it by yourself)

8 - install a new app and see problem solved.

I hope it work for all
