IOS – New iPhone 8 asking for App Store password for someone else’s account

apple-idios-appstoreiphone

I have an iPhone 8 that was set up from an iPhone 7 backup.

Every few minutes I get a popup asking for an App Store password, except the account it's specifying is an account that belongs to a family member.

Similar questions say that this can happen when an app was installed using a different App Store ID. So to fix this, I uninstalled every installed app.

I'm still getting the popup. Is there any way to fix this?

Head into Settings > iTunes & App Stores and at the top you should see that your iPhone is logged in with your family member's Apple ID.

Click on the Apple ID, then tap on Sign Out and then login with your Apple ID.
