Apple ID reset

I frequently (every other week) get the notification that some app requires me to re-enter my Apple-ID password. Then, EVERY TIME it tells me the Apple-ID is incorrect and I have to unlock it again.

I checked in some blogs from people who have the same issue, and there is no solution. The recommendation to update the software is not helpful, as my iphone is running the latest iOs but still the Apple-ID issue pops up regularly.

This is incredibly annoying! Please fix this!

Does resetting the Apple ID password help each time or does it continue to say incorrect?

Are you using two factor authentication? https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204915

resetting the password helps temporarily, but after a few weeks (sometimes days) the same problem comes up again at irregular intervals. The prompt is "Update Apple Settings: Some account services require you to sign in again".

The same issue happens in parallel with all my Apple devices, iPhone and iPad.

This is not a one-time issue, but happened multiple times over the last months, and is extremely annoying.

I am not using 2-factor authentication.

Thanks for your help, or reporting this issue to Apple.
