Hi Franklinipad,


It sounds like your iPad apps are automatically downloading. We're glad you've joined us in Apple Support Communities. Let's see if this helps.


In Settings > App Store > Apps is that enabled or disabled? If this is enabled automatic downloads of apps made from other devices will automatically download to your iPad.


If the issue remains after following those steps, let us know if you have an iPhone or another iPad linked with this Apple ID.


We hope that helps with your question and take care!
