Hi Joshua, Something doesn't sound right. If you have your settings as I described in my last post, you should not have to provide an Apple ID and its password when acquiring an app. I did my settings quite a while in the past so perhaps someone who has had more recent experience with this can comment.

I have checked the correct settings for using touch ID for unlocking my phone and getting APPS, but I still need to enter in my apple ID and password to make this change take affect. For some reason this wasn't the case when I unlocked my Iphone 8 with touch ID.
