Re: App Store and Updating Apps

[Chris Chaffin]

I have never had to enter a password to update an app. After doing some research into this, I found out a couple of things. For one person, they turned off screen time in settings, and this allowed them to then download app updates without having to enter their password. I do not know if this setting is still there since I do not own an iPhone SE, but one person reported that going to settings, Touch ID, and turn off iTunes and Apps fixed their issue with updating apps. I do not know if it will apply in your circumstance, but the biggest cause to this that I could find is when people had apps on their phone that was downloaded with multiple Apple IDs. Wish I could have found a definite fix, but hopefully one of the above will help your issue.
