As this is a 16E, there is no fingerprint/Touch Id, so yes, you initiate Face 
Id with a double press of the side button, then look at your iPhone and if Face 
Id works, the transactilon is approved. If Face Id does not work you should 
have an option to enter your PIN.

Subject: Re: Question on approving app download in app store

Hello,

You have to double tap the side button and then use your fingerprint or 
password or Face ID. The thing you were missing is the double tap of the side 
button and not the home button or the app.

On my new 16e, I’m trying to download apps from the app store. With a home 
button, I would tap “Get” on the app, then a pop-up would appear with my 
AppleID name and I’d use my thumb to approve the install. I cannot figure out 
the new method.  After tapping “Get”, the pop-up with my apple id appears, 
Flicking right doesn’t say anything, but I can move my finger below my apple ID 
and I hear “confirm with side button”.  If I press the side button on the right 
of the phone, the pop-up goes away, but the app doesn’t install.  A moment ago, 
I was trying with a different app download and I thought I heard VO say “double 
tap to install”, but double tapping didn’t work.  What am I missing?
