Sorry just new to iphone. Ive read that there will be an update wherein i no longer have to enter my password for free apps. Is the 8.3 not it?

I see the require password option for free apps on the settings menu but it is grayed out though.
Thanks!

Where is the "require password option for free apps"?

I updated 4 hrs ago (approx) 5S by OTA build 12F70 and the iPad Air usb by Mac build 12F69. So far things are on point and running well☺️ 🖖 no complaints here

I'm just getting home from work so I had no idea the update had been released. I'll update OTA momentarily and then do a clean install some time tomorrow since I'm off.

In "messages" not sure I understand the reasoning behind "contacts & SMS" on one side and "Unknown Senders" on the other? Not sure why the left side wouldn't say "contacts" only...?

You can turn that feature off in settings. I think it's meant to stop iMessage spam by putting them in the Unknown category. Not entirely sure why they can't do the same with SMS though.

What is this Touch ID unable to purchase stuff about? Also, I have an odd issue where my phones name randomly puts an extra number at the end. For example, the name mine has is plain ol' boring iPhone. I went in there randomly and it said iPhone (2). I cleared it up and now it's up to four. I'm willing to bet that the next time it will be five.

Where do you see that? My messages app looks the same as before.

Try spelling it. Like...iPhone Two.

Yea, I'm confused..... I don't see that either.

MrMars, where are you seeing that message thing of "contacts & sms" and "unknown senders"?

I also lost the Touch ID for purchases. I hope that's a mistake.
