Update App installed via Apple Configurator with other Apple ID

apple-configuratorapple-id

We installed iBooks through Apple Configurator to hundreds of iPad all with the same Apple ID. Now the users want to update the app but iOS is asking that Apple ID's password.

Is there a way to allow users to update iBooks with their Apple ID instead of the one which the .ipa thrown to Configurator was downloaded with?

We didn't manually assigned the Apple ID to iBooks and when each iPad was activated we gave an individual Apple ID to each in the iCloud step but still iBooks remained signed with the Apple ID the .ipa was downloaded with

Any ideas?

As far as I know you don't have a way to do that.

However, try and delete the app and download the new version of it with user's Apple ID.

It takes the same amount of data and time as to update it.
