Hi songprog,


We see you're being prompted to enter your Apple ID password when restarting. To clarify, is this prompt coming up before the restart takes place, or when you've restarted and you get back to your Home screen?


Also, what's the exact wording of the message you see? Does it mention Find My, the App Store, or anything else?


As a start, you might sometimes see a prompt to enter your Apple ID password if you've downloaded apps using another Apple ID and those apps have updates available. Have you used another Apple ID on your iPhone before? How to manually update apps on your Apple device - Apple Support


Let us know! The answers to the above will help work out the next best steps. Take care.

Hi Songprog, I have the same problem, it happens when I turn my phone on having been turned off before bed, it asks for my apple id. If I cancel the request and check in settings I am already logged in? I only have the one apple ID! The other issue I have is in Fitness, I have lost all my badges/awards for the 21 months?. I have tried everything to get them back, to no avail, I even restored the phone using the last and only backup. Thanks
