Does iTunes always ask for Password and permission on paid apps?

[Ledsteplin]

Ok, so I was still within the 15 minute window since I last entered my password for a download of an app using a promo code. So I find a paid ($1.99) app I want and tap to buy. It downloads without asking for anything. IDK. I figured they asked on paid apps regardless of time. At least for approval. Maybe not.

No if it is within the time you've selected you don't normally have to

Thanks! This is the first time I have run into that situation with a paid app. So now I know.

There is a setting in settings -> general -> restrictions that allows you to change the time interval for entering a password for the App Store and iTunes Store plus in app purchases to immediately

You beat me to it......like you, I have mine set for "Immediately", just in case. Ledsteplin, did you, by chance, make a change to that particular setting in the Restrictions section?

Thanks, y'all! The time interval was not the issue. I just expected iTunes to have me verify the purchase since it was a paid app. It just surprised me that they did not. I'm not worried about it though.
