Is there a way that I could set a PIN to prevent In-App Purchases on my Nexus 4 (like on my Nexus 7)? The only option I see is "Password". I don't like the idea of making a purchase for 30 mins without having to re-enter my password. I'd rather have it set to require a PIN for every purchase/IAP I make.

your nexus 4 got the latest playstore update. soon you will get the update for N7 and will only have that option.

doesnt it ask for password when you do IAP? it has always asked me for purchases in playstore so i assumed it did that with IAP as well.
 
Well, I haven't really tried it out yet.. so I'm not sure xD. But when I went to uncheck the "Password" option and clicked on the "Learn more" link, it says "After signing into your account, you will be able to make purchases on Google Play for 30 minutes without having to re-enter your password. After 30 minutes or more, you will be required to sign into your account again to make purchases on Google Play." & etc. So, I just trusted what that said xD.

The thing is with using the "Password" option... is i'm worried that I might purchase some IAPs by accident because you only have to enter your password once and don't have to again for 30 minutes, if that makes sense.
