Why all apps is asking for Credit Card info on iPhone 16 Pro?

No matter what I do with my new iPhone 16pro, I had a 14, every app I have tried to get into, that I had on my 14, I can’t. Every single one of them says enter CC#. All of my apps are free. It says it’s from Apple. I can’t even send or recieve emails and that’s for work! My I tried my Truth Social this morning and NOPE, CC required. Land kinds keep sounding better and better, with a nice fat Sunday paper with a good cup of coffee. The good ole days!!!!!

Hello~ You are required to have a credit card on file and have had to have one on file for quite sometime now for verification purposes. This is because many (most) apps have in app purchases and subscriptions. You will not be billed for a free app. Click on below…
