Hi Florian_Obradovic and TRIMEDX-AndrewM, Purchased apps can be assigned to groups using two types of licenses that Apple offers for iOS/iPadOS and macOS devices. See: How are purchased apps licensed? for more information.

Depending on type of VPP license assigned, end-users will receive prompts for VPP app installation in a number of scenarios documented here: End-User Prompts for VPP.

Lastly, learn more on how to deploy apps and books purchased in the Apps and Books section in Apple School Manager and Apple Business Manager here: Distribute content with Apps and Books in Apple School Manager and Apple Business Manager.

Hope this helps!

Intune_Support_Team thx for the overview!

We fixed the prompts by checking all app assignments and found one assignment which was of type "User License".

If you set it to "Device License" the prompts are gone!
