How to turn off itunes confirmation on AppleTV

Does anyone know how to turn off the confirm on other devices when making purchases on AppleTV?

My wife and I have family sharing and her account is on the AppleTV. It would be nice to be able to buy or rent movies without the added unnecessary confirmations.

Confirming purchases with mobile is optional. You can also enter credentials manually with the remote (select Confirm with Password).

Purchases will be linked to the active Apple ID account as set for the Apple TV box. If wanted, a household may have multiple accounts on the device to switch between.


The password requirement for purchases can be disabled completely, but I would advise against that to avoid accidental purchases, when just checking out a title.
