In this tutorial we are going to be showing you how to seamlessly disable automatic in-app purchases, thus giving you a few seconds before ultimately making the decision whether to buy those extra credits, or preventing a malicious third-party from purposefully maxing out your credit card. The process is very simple.
- Open up Play Store and then hit the menu button located on the top left-hand corner.
- Scroll down a bit and select the Setting tab, where you will find the ‘Require authentication for purchases‘ option.
- Tap that and then select ‘For all purchases through Google Play on this device‘.
- If your phone sports a fingerprint sensor, then fingerprint authentication will be available as well.
