My iPhone 14. Is asking me for password when I'm downloading. Apps. I didn't have to do that before. Can I turn it off? Thanks

For iOS devices, go to "Settings," tap on your Apple ID, and select "Media & Purchases." Then, choose "Password Settings" and under the "Free Downloads" section, toggle off the "Require Password" option.

To disable the requirement to enter a password every time you download an app, you need to adjust your device's settings based on the platform you are using. For iOS devices, go to "Settings," tap on your Apple ID, and select "Media & Purchases." Then, choose "Password Settings" and under the "Free Downloads" section, toggle off the "Require Password" option. For Android devices using the Google Play Store, open the Play Store app, tap on the profile icon, go to "Settings," then "Authentication," and select "Require authentication for purchases." Choose "Never" or adjust the settings to your preference. By making these changes, you can streamline the app download process without the need to repeatedly enter your password.
