Device asking for Apple ID after removed from account

I removed an old iPad from my Apple ID account before giving it to someone else, but the iPad is still asking her for my Apple ID password. How can I fix this?

One way is to use Find My Phone


Find My Phone – Remove device


Or if you have access to the iPad.


Selling/Giving Away Device


If the App Store/iTunes, a request for another Apple ID password is often caused by updates to apps/purchases that were made when using the other ID. Those purchases are tied to the other ID and can't be transferred. One option is to delete the apps/purchases made by the other ID and download them using the new ID if desired.
