Why I asked for password when downloading it free app

Hello Libscloset,

I understand you want to know why you're being asked for your Apple ID password when downloading free applications on your device. This is likely due to your password preferences for the iTunes Store and the App Store. You can change your settings using the steps here: Manage your iTunes Store and App Store password preferences. If you don't want to enter a password for free items, make sure you're disabling Require Password in the "free downloads" section.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Take care.
