Entering Apple password when I want to install an app I do not want to be asked for my iphone/Apple password every time I want to add an app. How can I stop this behavior? I have tried going into Passwords and fingerprint ID (don't have face recog on my phone) and it's off. I see this is a known issue for some. And some say it's a Bug in iphone. Suggestions?

Unable to download app from App Store. App Store is asking me for my Apple ID to install the app, it then refuses the Apple ID that I paste from my Passwords app. On further attempts it asks for my device (iPad air) ID and refuses that. Attempts on my iPhone and iPad Pro get the same response. 2nd question…if I am already signed into the App Store with my Apple ID with finger print or Face ID, why is the App Store asking for my Apple ID, it already knows it’s me as does my device? Even with face iID and fingerprint scanning and password manager and phone checks and email checks, this whole password thing is getting entirely too cumbersome and very confusing. Additionally, I am a victim of identity theft and participate willing,but it’s getting pretty crazy. Time to go back to pen and paper?

Please see the pic below that may help only if the Touch ID is not working.
