I encountered the following issues while developing in-app purchases; please help me: When attempting to purchase a product that has already been purchased, SKPaymentQueue reports an error instead of a success message: <SKPaymentQueue: 0x134665380>: Payment completed with error: Error Domain=ASDServerErrorDomain Code=3532 "You’re currently subscribed to this." UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=You’re currently subscribed to this., client-environment-type=Sandbox, AMSServerErrorCode=3532, storefront-country-code=USA} After buying product A on one iPhone using a sandbox account, restoring purchases on another iPhone with the same sandbox account via paymentQueue.restoreCompletedTransactions(withApplicationUsername:) does not return the previously purchased product A data; it directly calls restoreCompletedTransactionsFinished.

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreserverapi/get-v2-history-_transactionid I would like to inquire about the detailed triggers for updating receipts in this API specification. Recently, I was using this API with sort=DESCENDING&revoked=false to retrieve the expiration date of the most recent receipt and determine the subscription status. However, for some reason, an old receipt with an earlier expiration date appeared as the first receipt, and I would like to know the reason for this. Can you provide information on what specific events or actions trigger the updating of receipts in this API? Also, regarding https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreserverapi/status, will statuses 3 and 4 not be returned in the response unless the billing grace period is enabled in the App Store?

We sell magazines through a third party app platform called Pocketmags and our website. The magazines have Print, Digital and Combo options available for purchase. Also, this third party app provides the platform to read the digital version of the magazines. Once a user buys a subscription on the website, he/she receives the email with the login information on PocketMags, where he registers his login details and can start reading his subscription. With us, the customer shares his billing/shipping address along with their email id while they make payment. Now we have our own app where through which we want to sell these magazines and have to integrate In-App purchase for selling these digital subscriptions. How do we send the 3rd party subscription access details on email to the user if they do in app purchase?

When simulating a Storekit error like an invalid device verification or others of that type, should we finish a failed transaction? When I test with a Storekit configuration file, all failed transactions persist after every restart. The Apple-provided sample code for Storekit 2 has transactions finished only when they are successful.

Can you implement storekit2 for in app purchases for a flutter project?

I have an app that works by being able to map IAP transactions to a predefined user ID. This means when I consume events from Apple's App Store Server Notifications endpoints I have to do a reverse lookup in order to assign permissions within my app. Workflow: User purchases subscription within the app via IAP. The app persists the subscriptionID from the Apple IAP library in my cloud database (Firestore). Cloud function receives the event from App Store Server Notifications endpoint and looks up the user ID containing the persisted transactionID (with retries to avoid race condition). Question: This workflow works but it seems an improvement would be to allow dev's to append metadata, like the user ID, to the transaction submitted to IAP that we can access within the signedTransactionInfo of the event from the App Store Server Notifications endpoint in order to facilitate a direct lookup of the user document needing it's permissions updated. This would greatly simplify workflows that use non-Apple systems as a source of truth for app permissions. Does this actually exist already? If not, is there a feature request platform?

No matter what I do whether I delete the app or reset my phone it still prompts me to log in to the previous sandbox test account. I'm not even signed into that account on my phone or in the App Store.

In all the illustrations of win-back offers, I see an example of "Get 3 months off, then $X/month", as seen below. First, I'm not exactly clear how each configuration translates into an actual offer in practice: If I want to offer 3 months off on an annual subscription, ie. only if the user pays for the annual offer (basically a 25% discount), is that possible? If I set a "Free" type, of 3 months, I guess that would allow the user to cancel before paying for the annual, correct? If I set a "Pay up front" type, with a 25% discount, how would that show up to the user on the App Store? Secondly, is eligibility to an offer determined by the user elapsing on the same subscription or any subscription in the same subscription group? Thank you

After creating a new weekly subscription option, I get inconsistent results for subscriptionPeriod. In local testing with a synced or a un-synced StoreKit file I am getting unit == .week (as expected) whereas in TestFlight I am getting unit == .day. This makes unit.localizedDescriptionsomewhat unusable in the paywall. Am I missing something? Or is this bug or a limitation of StoreKit and/or TestFlight and/or newly created subscription options? Affected code (in a custom SubscriptionStoreControlStyle): private func priceDisplay(for pickerOption: Configuration.PickerOption) -> String { var result = "" if pickerOption.introductoryOffer != nil { result += NSLocalizedString("then", comment: "") + " " } result += pickerOption.displayPrice if let unit = pickerOption.subscriptionPeriod?.unit { result += " / " + unit.localizedDescription } return result } private func percentageSaved(for pickerOption: Configuration.PickerOption, allOptions: [Product]) -> Int? { guard let subscriptionPeriod = pickerOption.subscriptionPeriod, subscriptionPeriod != .weekly else { return nil } let weeklyOption = allOptions.first { otherOption in otherOption.subscription?.subscriptionPeriod == .weekly } guard let weeklyOption, weeklyOption.price > 0 else { return nil } let percentageSaved = 100 - (pickerOption.price / (weeklyOption.price * 52)) * 100 return Int((percentageSaved as NSNumber).doubleValue) }

Hello, Apple App Store Server API Team! I have one questions about the identifiers provided by Apple App Store Server API. Could you please answer? We are running an iOS App. In our app, the transactionId we get from Apple App Store Server API is called T1. (Example) Q1. Is it correct that other iOS apps cannot get T1 for transactionId from Apple App Store Server API? (I'm wondering if the transactionId is globally unique across apps.) Thank you!

After I configured a consumable subscription(In App Purchases) on the apple platform, when I change the price in the App's server, is there any existing apple Api support to change the price on the apple platform? Of course, I know I need to resubmit.

Greetings! I was reviewing the documentation for the Apple Store Server Notification v1 APIs and saw the deprecation notice. We are currently unable to migrate to v2 in the near future. With that in mind, I want to know if there were any plans to shut off v1, and if so, was there any timeline we could expect? Thank you in advance.

FB19376771 Transactions monitoring. If I only have subscriptions, do I really need to "bother" with any sort of monitorTransactions() or just rely on subscription status (subscribed, revoked, cancelled ...) ? This is in line with Apple SKDemo and recommendation: // Only handle consumables and non consumables here. Check the subscription status each time // before unlocking a premium subscription feature. switch transaction.productType { ref: [https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/implementing-a-store-in-your-app-using-the-storekit-api) The "Only handle consumables and non consumables here" recommendation by Apple in ref to the process transaction code above is nuanced and confusing if we know what was with other external experts recommendation saying when using only SK2 Views : "This is where most developers trip up in trying to get an experience that App Review is happy" ... continuing : "Be careful: that Purchase View code alone isn’t enough, because one of the possible completion status is .pending: the purchase is in the process of happening but hasn’t completed yet, so you still need to watch the transaction queue manually to be absolutely sure of handling the process completely." Does this holds true for the new SubscriptionStoreView ? We are not sure with quite obscure Apple documentation what SubscriptionStoreView handles, other than purchase (and now subscribe) function, and we do not know what diverse type of error handling messages it can return. Moreover, Apple documents: "Only handle consumables and non consumables here" ? @Apple can you please share more insights on Purchase button on SubscriptionStoreView e.g A) does it close ( finish). the purchase transaction ? B) What error results can it return ? C) What .onInAppPurchaseCompletion can handle as result ?

Hello, I am consistently receiving the error message "In-app purchases are not allowed on this device" whenever I try to make an in-app purchase on my iOS device. Despite following all the recommended solutions I could find online, the issue remains unresolved. Here is a list of the steps I have already taken: Checked Screen Time Settings: I navigated to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases. I have confirmed that "In-App Purchases" is set to "Allow." I have also tried toggling this setting off and on again. Signed Out & In of Apple ID: I signed out of my Apple ID via Settings > [Your Name] > Media & Purchases, restarted the device, and then signed back in. Restarted the Device: I have force-restarted my device multiple times. Updated iOS: I have ensured my device is running the latest version of iOS (checked via Settings > General > Software Update). Verified Payment Method: I have confirmed that my payment method on file is valid and up-to-date. Created a New Sandbox Account: I also created a new Sandbox Tester account in App Store Connect and tested with it, but the result was the same. Device Information: Device Model: iPhone 15, iPhone 13 iOS Version: iOS 17.5, iOS 18 Even after performing all of these steps, the problem persists. Has anyone else encountered such a stubborn issue, or does anyone have a different solution I could try? Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello 👋! I'm trying to switch the business model in my app from premium to freemium, gracefully so that existing users aren't bothered. I'd like to provide newly-paywalled content for original paid users. For this to work, I need to use originalAppVersion in AppTransaction, and support iOS 16 at minimum. I've asked about originalAppVersion earlier here. I've upped to iOS 16 already, but I don't exactly know how to call AppTransaction.shared to get originalAppVersion. The issue lies in the fact that my app is based on SpriteKit, so the operative areas I have available to call AppTransaction are ostensibly limited to AppDelegate and GameViewController. I'm using the code from Supporting business model changes by using the app transaction, but if I place it in either GameViewController or AppDelegate, for example in application(_:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:) or viewDidLoad(), I get an error concerning async/await. Now, I understand the gist of it: these are not asynchronous methods. So I'm trying to understand how to do it perhaps outside of these methods. How do I call AppTransaction.shared (and fetch originalAppVersion) in a SpriteKit based app?

I’m updating an old app which uses StoreKit and hosted in-app purchases (multimedia add-ons). The original .pkgs are missing and the only known place they exist intact is on Apple’s servers. The app is able to download and install the IAPs. Is there anyway to save them to the local device?

I want to build an app for ios using react native. preferably expo. The app will be for recording user experiences with technology. the SLUDGE that they face while navigating through technology. I want to have basic login, signup. The main feature would be to have 2 recording modes. First is record the screen and the front camera simultaneously. Second is to record the back camera and the front camera simultaneously. I can then patch the two outputs later on that is the screen recording and the front camera clip in post processing. I want to know if this is possible as I was told that react native and expo does not have the support yet. if not is there any library or another approach to make this app come alive.

Hello Apple Support Team, We're a developer team that has created an app with subscription-based features, and we've been using App Store Server Notifications to receive updates about user subscription status changes. I'm reaching out to inquire about potential modifications to the App Store Server Notifications approach that might have improved notification delivery times for my app. So on our appstore app, when a user purchases a subscription, the apple server notifications reach our server and send us the complete detail of that user’s purchase for eg he upgraded or downgraded etc. And then based on the data we receive from app store server notifications, we save it in our database, along with updating the users subscription table in the database. Previously, we experienced delays in receiving the real time notifications from apple on our server, sometimes taking a few minutes, while other times they would arrive immediately. And because of this issue, the users faced delay in seeing their subscription updates, as our db was updated only after the app store server notification reached our server. However, recently, we've noticed a significant improvement, and notifications are now being delivered still in real-time, but without any noticeable delays. I'm wondering if Apple has made any changes to the App Store Server Notifications system that might have resolved the delay issue. Could you please confirm if any modifications were made in 2025, specifically from January onwards, that might have improved notification delivery times? Additionally, I'd like to know if these changes apply to both sandbox testing and production environments. If possible, could you please provide more information about the changes or direct me to a resource that might explain the updates? I'd appreciate your assistance in confirming this information, and I'm looking forward to hearing back from you.

I'm using the SwiftUI view SubscriptionStoreView (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/subscriptionstoreview/) with a subscription group that has 2 subscriptions. I set up a free trial offer in App Store Connect (https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/manage-subscriptions/set-up-introductory-offers-for-auto-renewable-subscriptions/). The storekit file in Xcode is synced with the App Store. In debug build, this works and appears correctly, showing the free trial offer: But in release build, the free trial offer is not shown: The code is very simple: SubscriptionStoreView(productIDs: [ "[PRODUCT ID FOR ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION]", "[PRODUCT ID FOR BIMONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION]" ]) Does anyone have a solution? Thank you. (Xcode 16.3, macOS 15.5, iOS 18.5)

I'm working on my first subscription for an app I've built, and can't seem to figure out where I'm going wrong with this one whether it's something in Xcode or App Store Connect. Any idea where to start? Somethings to check. TIA.
