Since I will be lending my phone to someone else, I want my phone to ask my Google account password (or alternative authentication) each time an app is installed.
If I go to *Google Play* -> *Three bars menu* -> *Settings* -> *Require authentication for purchases*, the options are:
1. For all purchases through Google Play on this device.
2. Every 30 minutes.
3. Never.
The first option seems to be what I am looking for.
Nevertheless, I am not asked for any authentication for installing apps.
**Can this be done? How?**
Using a Samsung Galaxy J7, with Android 6.0.1.
