How to Turn Off In-App Purchases (iOS)
First, you need to open device settings. These are accessed by touching the icon that looks like gears. Once in the settings, choose General settings from the menu on the left and scroll down until you see Restrictions on the right. This will take you to the screen allowing you to turn on parental restrictions and turn off in-app purchases.
Before you can turn off in-app purchases, you must enable iOS restrictions. This process will ask for a passcode that can be used to modify the restrictions later. Don't worry, you will be asked to enter the passcode twice, so you won't be locked out because of a typo.
Now that you have parental restrictions turned on, you can easily disable in-app purchases. You may need to scroll down the screen a little bit to located in-app purchases in the Allowed Content section. Simply slide the On button to the Off setting and in-app purchases will be disabled.
