Transaction.currentEntitlements failing every time
I am shown as being subscribed to our service in the Subscriptions list in settings yet when going to the Storekit2 page in my app it shows me as NOT being subscribed and is unresponsive. I select Restore Subscription, that grays briefly, asks for a password, then returns to blue and nothing else happens. Bouncing back and forth between monthly and yearly likewise gives no response. The Transaction.currentEntitlements seems to be empty so it thinks the user is not subscribed. I have unsubscribed, and resubscribed via the Settings page to no avail.

Adding In-App Purchase to app + review required?
I'm trying to understand the IAP development process. I created my first Product on App Store Connect and am trying to build my app to use it. However it keeps failing with "Invalid product ID.". From what I've read, this is because the product has not yet gone through review. But what I don't understand is, of course it hasn't gone through review yet, because trying to use it in any capacity fails, even though I'm using a real physical device and using a Sandbox User. Is this the correct workflow? It seems very backwards that I have to submit the product for review, even before I know how it's going to be used. I'm still building the screen for the product page, and haven't even started touching any backend APIs, yet it's asking for screenshots. Am I misunderstanding something here?

Is the following subscription cancellation flow possible for an iOS in-app subscription?
Is the following subscription cancellation flow possible for an iOS in-app subscription? (Note: This is during the feature planning stage, not actual app deployment.) Planned user flow: User taps the “Cancel Subscription” button Display a “Wait a moment!” screen showing how much the user has enjoyed BFLIX content (to encourage retention) User taps “Proceed to Cancel” Collect cancellation reason from the user Redirect the user to the Apple subscription management page to complete cancellation Can this flow be implemented under Apple’s current in-app purchase and App Store Review guidelines?

"Cannot connect to App Store" when trying to purchase subscription using Xcode built app
I'm developing an app and I think I've implemented what I need to in the swift code. However, when I click the Purchase button in my app, I see "Cannot connect to App Store" when the App Store app opens. Attached are images showing how I've configured the Sandbox user. What am I doing wrong? I expect to be able to do a fake purchase to test subscription activation in the app, but it doesn't work.

I’ve set everything up as required, but I still get this error: flutter: Found products: [] If everything works perfectly when StoreKit configuration is used in Xcode, but not via TestFlight. All my Subscriptions are approved with the same ID.

How to make StoreKit config & App Store Server notifications work together?
Hi, Using StoreKit 2 with App Store Server notifications like so: User selects a purchase App calls Product.purchase() If successful, App Store notifies our backend with the transaction details, importantly with a UUID for the transaction ID. This works fine, but when I try to test contingent pricing via the handy StoreKit config Transaction Manager in Xcode by creating a PurchaseIntent if I then complete the purchase in the app the Transaction ID is sequential, (0 for the first, 1 for the second etc), which doesn't work for us as the backend might already have that ID stored so the purchase never completes. If I disable the config file it works fine, but then I can't use the Transaction Manager debug tool. Is there a way to override the ID of a custom transaction that's created via the StoreKit configuration? Thanks

StoreKit 2: currentEntitlements always returns empty on Restore...
I tried deleting the configuration file, but I ended up with an alert asking me to sign in with my sandbox ID. I did, and it returned an error: "Request Canceled". It is as if the purchase function doesn't update the currentEntitlements. This is my purchase function. Am I doing something wrong? func purchase(_ product: Product) async throws { let result = try await product.purchase() switch result { case .success(let verificationResult): switch verificationResult { case .verified(let transaction): // Successful purchase - deliver content await updatePurchasedProducts() await transaction.finish() // Go back to the map integratePlanAhead() case .unverified(_, let error): // Purchase failed verification throw error } case .userCancelled: // User cancelled the purchase break case .pending: // Purchase is pending (e.g., parental approval needed) break @unknown default: break } } It looks like purchases are never updated for my sandbox user... Thanks for any help :)

How to test about user refund in sandbox?
My server is able to receive notifications for successful purchases. However, we are experiencing an issue where we do not receive any server notifications when a consumable product is refunded. Could you please help us verify if this behavior is expected? Also, is there a way to trigger a test refund notification for consumable products in the sandbox environment, so we can ensure our server is correctly set up to handle it?

StoreKit 2 – IAP Subscriptions Not Appearing in Sandbox
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.

Biometric Authentication Behavior in IAP Sandbox Environment
Where the problem occurs: In-app purchase Non-ApplePay Non-local authentication login Environment where the problem occurs: Sandbox environment (Development environment, TestFlight environment) Problem handling process: Open page A in the app and purchase product B (auto-renewable subscription) on that page. User authentication is required to purchase product B. During the authentication process, the user needs to enter the Apple account and Apple account password. After completing the authentication, complete the purchase of product B. Problem in step 3: Why is FaceID or TouchID not used for authentication? Note: Face ID and Password -> iTunes Store and App Store -> Status is Enabled

Same same originalTransactionId, productId, but the transactionIds are different.
We are seeing an issue with a potential duplicate charge issue regarding our app. We have received two transactions with the same originalTransactionId but different transactionIds: Order A: TransactionId: [Redacted_TID_1] OriginalTransactionId: [Redacted_OID_A] ProductId: weekly_subscription PurchaseDate: [Redacted_Timestamp_1] SignedDate: [Redacted_Timestamp_2] Price: [Redacted_Price] CAD Order B: TransactionId: [Redacted_TID_2] OriginalTransactionId: [Redacted_OID_A] ProductId: weekly_subscription PurchaseDate: [Redacted_Timestamp_1] SignedDate: [Redacted_Timestamp_3] Price: [Redacted_Price] CAD Both transactions share the same originalTransactionId, productId, and expiresDate, but the transactionIds are different. We wanna confirm: Were customers charged once or twice for this subscription renewal? If only one charge was made, how should we programmatically determine the “valid” transaction among multiple records with the same originalTransactionId to avoid confusion in our server-side receipt validation? We appreciate any clarification so we can handle this correctly in our backend.

I've been stuck with this rejection. Trial button 'greyed out' or non responsive. What they are seeing is my subscriptions not loading into the pay wall. We think its because the subscriptions haven't been reviewed and approved in order for them to populate the pay wall (activating the pay wall so it isn't 'greyed out'. Has anyone had and solved this issue?

IAP receipt validation fails with status code: 21002
I have implemented IAP. The purchases are successful. The refresh receipt is working fine, which then calls the requestDidFinish(_ request: SKRequest) delegate. I'm fetching the receipt url through 'Bundle.main.appStoreReceiptURL'. When I convert the receipt data in base64 string and send it to app store's sandbox api and try to validate the receipt, it fails giving status code : 21002.

Regarding the pattern of multiple original transaction IDs being linked
In the app we're distributing, we've identified a user where the Get All Subscription Statuses API returns two original transaction IDs in the data response. This user has gone through cancellations and re-subscriptions since their initial purchase. Meanwhile, despite maintaining a continuous subscription, a notification suddenly arrives on the renewal date with original_transaction_id2. +---------------------------+---------------------------+---------------------+ | original_transaction_id | notification_type | subtype | +---------------------------+---------------------------+---------------------+ | original_transaction_id1 | SUBSCRIBED | INITIAL_BUY | ~ Repeated cancellations and re-subscriptions ~ | original_transaction_id1 | SUBSCRIBED | RESUBSCRIBE | | original_transaction_id2 | SUBSCRIBED | INITIAL_BUY | +---------------------------+---------------------------+---------------------+ Although it can be inferred from the interface definition of the API itself that multiple original transaction IDs may be returned, what causes multiple original transaction IDs to be returned? Furthermore, is it possible to reproduce the case where multiple original transaction IDs are returned in the sandbox environment provided by Apple? As for this app, it: Uses subscriptions through in-app purchases. Does not offer upgrades, downgrades, or crossgrades, having only one product. Has never undergone price increases or decreases. Is distributed exclusively in Japan.

Need a way to get pending purchases.
I am using Store Kit 2 to implement In App Purchases for my app. I need to maintain a pending state in the UI for all my pending purchases. Is there a way to get a list of all pending purchases? If not, is there a way to know if my pending purchase was cancelled?

Testing price change for the auto-renewing subscriptions
We are considering a price change for the auto-renewing subscriptions we currently offer in a Production environment and have made system modifications to our servers. We would like to implement a price change for purchases made through our SANDBOX Apple account in order to test if our system is capable of handling the price change.
