Double click for app purchases

I use to be able to double click to purchase a free app. Now every time I want to get a free app it ask me for my password instead of double clicking. Why?? Can anyone please help?

Thank you, Tina

On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

  1. Tap Settings > [your name] > iTunes & App Store.
  2. Tap Password Settings. If you have Touch ID or Face ID turned on for purchases, you won't see this menu.

  3. Under Purchases and In-App Purchases, tap the setting that you want.
  4. Under Free Downloads, tap Require Password to turn the setting on or off.
  5. When asked, enter your password. Then tap OK.


Manage your iTunes Store and App Store password preferences ...
