In my app’s IAP products, before enabling free trials, the App Store Server Notifications V2 callbacks all returned the correct notificationType. For auto-renewable subscriptions, when they were about to expire, the notificationType was either DID_RENEW or EXPIRED. A small number of cases(DID_FAIL_TO_RENEW) failed to renew due to billing issues, which was expected. However, after I enabled a 7-day free trial for the auto-renewable products, I noticed that in the App Store Server Notifications V2 callbacks, almost all users (except those who manually turned off auto-renewal) received notificationType = DID_FAIL_TO_RENEW. According to the documentation, DID_FAIL_TO_RENEW indicates a billing issue renewal failure, but in this case it seems like all renewals are being marked as failed. I’ve observed that for users who cancel during the free trial, the callbacks look normal: first a DID_CHANGE_RENEWAL_STATUS notification, then an EXPIRED notification when the trial ends. That flow seems correct. However, for users who do not cancel the trial, almost all callbacks show DID_FAIL_TO_RENEW. Does this mean every remaining user has a billing issue? I also noticed on the Developer Forums that other developers have reported the same issue — receiving a large number of DID_FAIL_TO_RENEW notifications specifically when free trials convert to paid subscriptions: https://developer.apple.com/forums/search?q=DID_FAIL_TO_RENEW Could someone clarify: under normal circumstances, when a free trial transitions to a paid subscription and fails, should the App Store Server Notifications V2 notificationType indeed be DID_FAIL_TO_RENEW, or should it be a different type(e.g. EXPIRED)? And is it expected behavior that almost all free trial conversions return DID_FAIL_TO_RENEW?

When trying to login with sandbox account in my simulator, nothing happens, it just become inactive for few seconds and then it become active again prompting that I can login, again and again.

Product Timeout, In App purchase is approved in App Store Connect. The Product ID and Bundle ID match. Environment macOS App in TestFlight Bundle ID: com.streamtime.StreamTime App Version: 1.1 (Build 51) StoreKit 2 Product ID: com.streamtime.premium Status: App & Subscription Approved Issue StoreKit product request (Product.products(for:)) consistently times out after 60 seconds in TestFlight, despite all connectivity checks passing. The same code works perfectly in Xcode with local StoreKit configuration.

Are there additional configuration steps needed for macOS apps vs iOS? Could this be related to the automatic in-app purchase entitlement? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated as this is blocking our TestFlight validation.

hi, when i test an in app purchase with my sandbox acount i get: "ask permission. a request to buy ** will be sent to your parent or gardian (environment: sandbox)" When i made the sandbox account, i didnt see any option to set my age. What am i missing here, I dont seem to be able to fully test in app purchases since my sandbox accounts always defualt to this family sharing thing? Thanks

Could you tell me about the specifications of the winback offer? If a user is eligible for the winback offer, will the winback offer sheet be displayed every time the app is launched? Or will the OS adjust the display frequency in some way?

Hi everyone, After my app was initially rejected, all my IAPs now show the status “Developer Action Needed.” There’s nothing I need to change on them — they were just returned because it was the first submission and the app itself was rejected. Do I need to do anything with the IAPs before I resubmit, or will they still be attached and reviewed automatically with the next binary? I’ve seen conflicting answers, so I’d like to confirm the correct process. Thanks, Cris

When submitting an app for review, will any unreviewed auto-renewing subscriptions within the app be reviewed simultaneously? I own an app that has passed review and offers an auto-renewing subscription A within the app that has also passed review. To test a new service, I plan to create a new auto-renewing subscription B, which I do not intend to submit for review. After creating Subscription B, I plan to submit the app for review as part of an app update. In that case, is there a possibility that Subscription B will also be reviewed?

hello, I have an app with In-App purchase set up, it works fine in TestFlight on an iOS device but the download from the App Store gives me a transaction failed message. I tried to replicate in the simulator but from what I've read is that you can't do in-app purchase testing in the simulator. Perhaps I'm wrong here but I've tried multiple sandbox accounts, etc.. and still get an unusual "...password can't be reused..." error (pasted below) in the debug description. I'm curious if anyone else has dealt with this scenario and if so how did you go about researching/identifying the issue and/or resolving it. Partial error message: <SKPaymentQueue: 0x60000000e370>: Payment completed with error: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=530 "(null)" UserInfo={NSUnderlyingError=0x600000c74750 {Error Domain=AMSErrorDomain Code=100 "Authentication Failed The authentication failed."

While using react-native-iap and being successfully connected with initConnection() I'm not receiving information on subscriptions with requestSubscription(). Attaching the code here, if anyone could assist asap please would be really grateful thanks! Been at it all day and just can't figure. const handleBuySubscription = async (productId) =&gt; { try { await requestSubscription({ sku: productId, }); setLoading(false); } catch (error) { setLoading(false); if (error instanceof PurchaseError) { errorLog({ message: [${error.code}]: ${error.message}, error }); } else { errorLog({ message: "handleBuySubscription", error }); } } }; but the requestSubscription({ sku: productId, })

I am handling the buy subscription with this function const handleBuySubscription = async (productId) =&gt; { try { await requestSubscription({ sku: productId, }); setLoading(false); } catch (error) { setLoading(false); if (error instanceof PurchaseError) { errorLog({ message: [${error.code}]: ${error.message}, error }); } else { errorLog({ message: "handleBuySubscription", error }); } } }; but the requestSubscription({ sku: productId, }) does not return anything, and it is stuck at await

I have an iOS app with a main target and an app extension. I want the app extension to write data to the SwiftData in App Groups, while the main target reads the data. However, currently, the app extension only has permission to read data, not to write it.Is the issue due to my incorrect configuration or an Apple-imposed restriction?

One of our customers subscribed to a monthly plan on August 16 but the server-to-server notification seems to have been sent on August 18. What could be the reasons for such a delay between the purchase and the server-to-server notification which are usually sent right after the purchase? The receipt sent along with the notification seems to confirm that the receipt has only been created 2 days after the purchase. Here is an extract: { "environment": "Production", "receipt": { "receipt_type": "Production", "bundle_id": "fr.gaumontvideo.gaumontclassique", "application_version": "613", "receipt_creation_date": "2025-08-18 13:00:16 Etc/GMT", "receipt_creation_date_ms": "1755522016000", "receipt_creation_date_pst": "2025-08-18 06:00:16 America/Los_Angeles", "request_date": "2025-08-25 13:08:27 Etc/GMT", "request_date_ms": "1756127307346", "request_date_pst": "2025-08-25 06:08:27 America/Los_Angeles", "original_purchase_date": "2022-05-11 06:14:37 Etc/GMT", "original_purchase_date_ms": "1652249677000", "original_purchase_date_pst": "2022-05-10 23:14:37 America/Los_Angeles", "original_application_version": "265", "in_app": [ { "quantity": "1", "product_id": "fr.gaumontvideo.gaumontclassique.subscription.monthly.apple", "transaction_id": "270002386706194", "original_transaction_id": "270002386706194", "purchase_date": "2025-08-16 08:02:06 Etc/GMT", "purchase_date_ms": "1755331326000", "purchase_date_pst": "2025-08-16 01:02:06 America/Los_Angeles", "original_purchase_date": "2025-08-16 08:02:08 Etc/GMT", "original_purchase_date_ms": "1755331328000", "original_purchase_date_pst": "2025-08-16 01:02:08 America/Los_Angeles", "expires_date": "2025-09-16 08:02:06 Etc/GMT", "expires_date_ms": "1758009726000", "expires_date_pst": "2025-09-16 01:02:06 America/Los_Angeles" } }

Hi, This is the first time I'm submitting an app using IAP with auto-renewing subscriptions. Everything keeps getting rejected (specifically, my subscriptions), and instead of telling me what's wrong or what I need to fix, my reviewer just keeps regurgitating generic passages from the rules. Is there a site/tutorial/whatever that explains how to set these up and submit them? I haven't found anything that looks official/legit, so I'll settle on something recommended by someone who has been through the process. I would appreciate any help. I have been at this for DAYS and am at my wits end. Thanks.

It seems that beta 3 broke StoreKit Testing when running against an iOS 26 simulator device. Specifically, when validating product IDs, the debug console displays messages like the following: [492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue) [492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue) [492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue) [492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue) [492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue) [492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue) [492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue) [492a4cfa_SK1] Could not parse product: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.ProductResponse.Key.price], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue) In addition, the SKProductsResponse (I am using the original StoreKit API), lists all requested product IDs in invalidProductIdentifiers. The products array is empty. StoreKit Testing behaves as expected when Xcode 26 beta 3 is run against an iOS 18.4 simulator device.

Hello! We are tryign to test refund notifications and we've implemented a debug button trigger the refund of a purchase done with a sandbox account. The problem is that the refund view displays a Cannot Connect message and nothing happens. No error messages appear in the console. Anything we are doing wrong?

I am experiencing an issue with my iOS app where StoreKit 2 in-app subscriptions are not appearing when using Product.products(for:). I have done all the necessary configurations, but the products still return an empty array ([]). Here are the details of my setup: • App ID / Bundle ID: com.tstore.vocabely • Product IDs: • com.tstore.vocabely.base • com.tstore.vocabely.pro • com.tstore.vocabely.ultimate • Paid Apps Agreement: Active • IAP Status in App Store Connect: Ready to Submit / Approved • Testing Environment: • Device: iPhone (real device) • iOS Version: [insert your iOS version] • Xcode Version: [insert your Xcode version] • Sandbox Tester Account used • Code Snippet: Using Product.products(for: productIDs) in StoreKitManager to fetch products I have verified: • Product IDs match exactly with App Store Connect • Paid Apps Agreement is Active • Using a real device, not a simulator • Sandbox account is properly signed in Despite all of this, fetchProducts() still returns an empty array. Could you please assist me in troubleshooting why my subscriptions are not appearing in the Sandbox environment? Thank you for your support.

We distribute apps that offer auto-renewing subscriptions. In order to test a new service, we would like to create a new subscription group and subscription product (hereinafter referred to as “test subscription”) for this app. If the “In-app purchase statuses” of the test subscription is “Ready to Submit” is the following behavior correct? ・General end users cannot purchase the test subscription. ・Users with SANDBOX Apple accounts can purchase the test subscription.

Hello, Our app supports family sharing skus, we successfully ran tests on family sharing features in sandbox, we noticed the feature does not work on live builds. The family member (child account) do see the subscription as "Shared with you". We attempted to restore multiple time and there is nothing to restore.
