on your iPhone. Tap your Apple ID name at the top, then go to Media & Purchases and select View Account. Tap Purchase History, look for unpaid or failed payments, and complete them. If Apple keeps declining your payment method, follow these steps to resolve issues.

To stop verification when installing apps on your iPhone, you can usually complete pending purchases or update the payment method. If the issue lingers, you can try signing out of your Apple ID and signing back in. To do this, open the app setting, tap your Apple ID name, scroll down and tap Sign Out at the bottom. Enter your Apple ID passcode and tap Turn Off. Enable all toggles to keep a copy of your iCloud data before logging out. Tap Sign Out again when prompted. Then restart your iPhone, open the app setting again, and log in with your Apple ID credentials. If none of these steps work, consider using the Apple Support app for expert help.
