iPhone App Store: can I install free apps using Face ID instead of my Apple ID password?

ios-appstore

I ended up fixing it by enabling Face ID back:

  • Settings app, Face ID & Passcode, disable for iTunes & App Store
  • reboot the device (not sure that’s needed)
  • Settings, Face ID, enable for the App Store
