Tap ok after you’re done and that’s basically it. It’s really that easy. You will now be prompted to enter your password next time you download anything that will cost you money on the Google Play Store. This also includes in-app purchases as well. After entering the password, you will be able to make purchases for 30 minutes without having to re-enter your password. After the 30 minute timeout period, you will have to enter your password to make purchases again.
This was done using a Nexus 7 device running Android 4.4.2. Do you have any questions about the process? Please leave us a comment below and we will get back to you
