Giving your Apple ID and password someone else isn't secure. The person then knows your Apple ID.


If you then change the password, the app will not turn off, but the other person won't be able to update the app because that would require your Apple ID and password.


I suggest you let the other person make the purchase using their Apple ID. That keeps your ID secure and lets the other person update the app.
