If you're spending that much time on something that simple you need to improve your Googling, reading comprehension, and critical thinking skills man

Check YOUR reading comprehension.

I read through 3 different detailed guides, and each one CONTRADICTED one another, because this silly little option-toggle getting moved around when OS was updated.

In the end, I was never able to toggle it off, because on the that version of iOS (the most recent at the time, Spring 2021) on that iPad had a bug, and the option toggle was disabled.

A tech savvy person shouldn't need to comb through guides to find an parameter toggle as trivial as that; the option should been under App Store settings. THAT would be the intuitive place to change an App Store parameter, but instead, it was buried somewhere in the phone master settings.

Maybe you should have included your OS version in your Google search and save yourself some headache? Google also has a "tools" option to let you only see results from the past week/month/year/etc you can use so you don't follow outdated guides

You're welcome

Lol, u/Robot_Embryo blocked me after leaving his comment. All I wanted to do was teach a self proclaimed "tech savvy" person how to use Google

I did? News to me. Maybe you should learn how to use your iOS device.

Oh, so weird how I can all of a sudden view your profile again. Anyway, I hope the lesson on how to Google was helpful to a "tech savvy" person such as yourself. Seems a basic lesson but I'm willing to offer it for free

"How to *insert what you want to do* ios version *your ios version*" Litterally that simple.

I guess if I were an iOS user I'd be used to that, but in 13 years I've literally never once had to Google for a walk through on how to find a such a trivial parameter with Android, because they usually are put right where you'd expect them to be.

>Litterally that simple.

You know what's literally simpler?

  1. not requiring a password input for free apps by default on the Appstore

  2. putting an AppStore setting parameter in the Appstore settings menu, not somewhere completely unrelated

  3. not arbitrarily moving the toggle to a new sub-menu everytime the OS is updated.

Ive never had to google either. It just seems like some cant manage on there own, and have to look up guides on how to do shit, on IOS of all places lmao. You can quite easily make password input be your face, or touch. It seems like you werent capable of doing that either. The appstore settings are.... where you (didnt) guess, the settings menu. Sure they shouldnt change where it is, but your dumbass cant find out what the setting name is called, and use the handy dandy settings search, that searches the name of literally every setting. And will let you change it.
