Solved - Constant pop-ups for iTunes login - iPhone XS

Any ideas on how to fix this? I logged out of iTunes in settings, restarted the phone, and signed back in. I’ve even tried signing out of iPhone and iPad at same time, and doing the restart and sign in.

Thanks for any advice! It’s been driving me slightly nuts

I think I figured out my issue with iTunes login pop up on my iPhone. My iMac had restarted and was not logged in to iTunes. So auto updates and downloads seemed to be affected by this. Once I logged back in on Mac, iOS pop-ups went away!
