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." UserInfo={NSMultipleUnderlyingErrorsKey=(

I don't know why the subscription doesn't work in production, the message Subscription Unavailable appears. The subscription is approved in appstoreconnect.
Works normally using storekit in xcode, both signing and using subscriber features.
According to apple's guidance, first I do the test to validate https://buy.itunes.apple.com/verifyReceipt and then https://sandbox.itunes.apple.com/verifyReceipt.
Plus I create the app-specific shared secret and put it in the code to validate the receipts.
I have looked for several topics and I can not solve this problem. What do I need to do to make it work in production? I believe I did what's in the official documentation.
Description:
We are developing an iOS app that offers only one auto-renewable subscription.
Recently, a user who had not subscribed for over a year purchased the subscription again through our app. However, when they checked Settings > Subscriptions, the new subscription did not appear. Instead, only their past subscription history was visible, and there was no option to cancel the new subscription. We have verified this issue with a screenshot provided by the user.
Additionally, we checked our app’s logs and confirmed that StoreKit.product.purchase successfully returned .success, indicating that the purchase was processed correctly.
Code used for purchase:
let result = try await product?
.purchase(options: [
.appAccountToken(uuid)
])
switch result {
case .success(let verificationResult):
switch verificationResult {
case .verified(let transaction):
addPurchaseLog("verificationResult.verified.")
case .unverified(_, let verificationError):
addPurchaseLog("verificationResult.unverified.")
case .userCancelled, .pending, .none:
addPurchaseLog("verificationResult.userCancelled or .pending or .none")
@unknown default:
addPurchaseLog("verificationResult.unknown.")
}
Despite the successful purchase, the new subscription does not appear under the user's active subscriptions. Could this be a bug in StoreKit? If there are any known issues or workarounds, we would appreciate any guidance.
Environment:
Xcode: 16.2
iOS version: 16.0+
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?
Hi,
I've been unable to successfully test in the sandbox environment for a StoreKit 2 subscription group and can't seem to find the missing piece.
I am calling the following line of code:
let products = try await Product.products(for: [subscriptionID])
Expected behavior: The product is returned in the products array.
Actual result: The array is empty
I have done the following:
Successfully tested our logic using a storekit configuration file locally in Xcode.
Created the Subscription group in App Store Connect. The subscription product is currently "Waiting for Review", but it is our first so will not be approved without being attached to a distribution build review.
Created a Sandbox user account in App Store Connect -> Users -> Sandbox
Signed into the sandbox user account in Settings -> Developer -> Sandbox Apple Account
Signed the Paid Apps Agreement for our organization
A few debugging notes:
I deleted all apps before installing from Xcode
I've tried both locally and in TestFlight builds
Restarted my device
Verified productID matches the productID in App Store Connect
I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

In-App Purchase
I implemented consumable in-app purchases in an iPhone app using StoreKit's ProductView().
When I tap the payment button in ProductView(), I am taken to the payment screen and once the payment is completed, the desired code appears to be executed, so there doesn't seem to be a problem, but when I tap the payment button in ProductView() again, the desired code is executed without being taken to the payment screen.
So one payment can be used any number of times.
I thought I wrote it exactly according to the reference, but
will it be okay in a production environment?
Is there any code that is necessary?
I'm encountering a crash on app launch. The crash is observed in iOS version 17.6 but not in iOS version 18.5. The only new notable thing I added to this app version was migrate to store kit 2.
Below is the error message from Xcode:

Note: My app is a Godot App and uses objc static libraries. I am using swift with bridging headers for interoperability. This issue wasn't observed until my last version in which the migration to storekit2 was the only notable change.
We are currently performing maintenance and operation on our app.
I would like to ask a question about Apple's purchase processing.
When retrieving purchase information for a user who has multiple original transaction IDs, such as original transaction ID AAA and original transaction ID BBB, if "Get All Subscription Statues" is executed with BBB as an argument, is it possible that purchase information for original transaction ID "AAA" will be retrieved?
If this kind of issue does occur, please share the conditions under which it occurs.
My app has a couple of consumable IAP items. I have tested this extensively and it works in all test scenarios including loads of beta testers using testflight. However, Apple's production reviewer reports that loading of the products hangs in their setup.
This is very frustrating as I have no means of recreating the problem.
My first product was tested ok an all my IAP items are approved for release. However, I did not explicitly assign them to my build. I read somewhere that you need to do that but could not find in App Store Connect after my first product was approved.
Below is the relevant code section. What am I missing?
class DonationManager: NSObject, ObservableObject, SKProductsRequestDelegate, SKPaymentTransactionObserver {
@Published var products: [SKProduct] = [] // This is observed by a view. But apparently that view never gets populated in Apple's production review setup
@Published var isPurchasing: Bool = false
@Published var purchaseMessage: String? = nil
let productIDs: Set<String> = ["Donation_5", "Donation_10", "Donation_25", "Donation_50"]
override init() {
super.init()
SKPaymentQueue.default().add(self)
fetchProducts()
}
deinit {
SKPaymentQueue.default().remove(self)
}
func fetchProducts() {
print("Attempting to fetch products with IDs: \(productIDs)")
let request = SKProductsRequest(productIdentifiers: productIDs)
request.delegate = self
request.start()
}
func productsRequest(_ request: SKProductsRequest, didReceive response: SKProductsResponse) {
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.products = response.products.sorted { $0.price.compare($1.price) == .orderedAscending }
print("Successfully fetched \(self.products.count) products.")
if !response.invalidProductIdentifiers.isEmpty {
print("Invalid Product Identifiers: \(response.invalidProductIdentifiers)")
self.purchaseMessage = NSLocalizedString("Some products could not be loaded. Please check App Store Connect.", comment: "")
} else if self.products.isEmpty {
print("No products were fetched. This could indicate a problem with App Store Connect configuration or network.")
self.purchaseMessage = NSLocalizedString("No products available. Please try again later.", comment: "")
}
}
}
...and the view showing the items:
@StateObject private var donationManager = DonationManager()
var body: some View {
VStack(spacing: 24) {
Spacer()
// Donation options -------------------
if donationManager.products.isEmpty {
ProgressView(NSLocalizedString("Loading donation options...", comment: ""))
.foregroundColor(DARK_BROWN)
.italic()
.font(.title3)
.padding(.top, 16)
} else {
ForEach(donationManager.products, id: \.self) { product in
Button(action: {
donationManager.buy(product: product)
}) {
HStack {
Image(systemName: "cup.and.saucer.fill")
.foregroundColor(.pink)
Text("\(product.localizedTitle) \(product.priceLocale.currencySymbol ?? "$")\(product.price)")
}
.buttonStyle()
}
.disabled(donationManager.isPurchasing)
}
}
I try to call Get Transaction Info from App Store Server API, and the transactionId is for a Non-consumable type product, but it is odd that there are so many different transactionId and they have a same originalTransactionId
{
"bundleId": "${bundleId}",
"environment": "Production",
"inAppOwnershipType": "PURCHASED",
"originalPurchaseDate": 1691220528000,
"originalTransactionId": "${originalTransactionId}",
"productId": "${productId}",
"purchaseDate": 1691220528000,
"quantity": 1,
"signedDate": 1692590989925,
"storefront": "USA",
"storefrontId": "143441",
"transactionId": "${originalTransactionId}",
"transactionReason": "PURCHASE",
"type": "Non-Consumable"
}
the defination of Non-Consumable is can only purchase once for same apple account. But why there would have originalTransactionId?

App Store Server API
When creating a subscription charging system for an iOS app, I am trying to change the display to yen, dollars, or euros depending on the user's country.
I am using [priceLocale] of [SKProduct] in [StoreKit] to obtain currency information linked to the Apple account from the App Store and change the display.
The smartphone I am testing on uses an Apple account created in Japan, and the nationality of the App Store is also set to Japan, so I expect the display to be in yen.
As a result, the TestFligh version displayed dollars, but the official release version displayed yen.
Why doesn't the TestFligh version display yen?
I'm using Swift to verify receipts in myObjective C Mac Application using the following code:
@objc
class MyAppTransaction: NSObject{
@objc
class func checkReceipt() async -> String {
do {
let verificationResult = try await AppTransaction.shared
switch verificationResult {
case .verified(_):
return "VERIFIED"
case .unverified(_, _):
return "NO RECEIPT"
}
} catch {
return "ERROR" //(StoreKit.StoreKitError) unknown
}
}
}
Starting today with my upgrade to Sequoia 15.4 and XCode 16.3 receipt validation is broken. The function is going to the catch and returning "ERROR" I can't set a break point in the do {} but if I set one at the return "ERROR", in the debugger error = (StoreKit.StoreKitError) unknown. the Compiler logs an error:Failed to parse AppTransaction: missingValue(for: [StoreKit.AppTransaction.Key.appTransactionID], expected: StoreKit.BackingValue). Reading the developer documentation I can't find anything about these struct members.
I tried to use refresh() to get a receipt like I used to with exit(173) but the compiler says refresh () not found.
This is extremely troubling because I can't debug my receipt validation code and I don't know if this will happen to my users.
Do I just have to trust Apple that my users will have an application with a receipt attached?
What can I do?
Hello everyone,
I’m hoping someone might help with auto-renewable subscription validation in Apple’s Sandbox environment. Here’s the situation:
My Setup:
I’ve configured three auto-renewable subscriptions in App Store Connect and generated an In-App Purchase key (with the correct Issuer ID and Key ID). (I also tried the App Store Connect API Keys)
I’m using Apple’s App Store Server API v2 endpoints (GET /inApps/v2/subscriptions/{originalTransactionId}/latest) to fetch the latest subscription status.
I’ve created several Sandbox test users (with fresh email addresses), signed out of old test accounts on my devices, and tested purchasing subscriptions anew.
What Works:
I am receiving valid Server Notifications from Apple (e.g. SUBSCRIBED, DID_RENEW) with the correct environment: "Sandbox" field.
My JWT generation appears to be correct because I’m no longer receiving 401 errors—only 404. That suggests Apple accepts the key and credentials.
My fallback logic attempts production first; if it sees a 404 or 410, it switches over to the Sandbox endpoint. This is exactly what Apple’s documentation recommends.
The Problem:
Whenever I query GET https://api.storekit-sandbox.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v2/subscriptions/{originalTransactionId}/latest using the originalTransactionId from Apple’s own Server Notification, Apple returns a 404 (indicating it can’t find that subscription).
This happens even though the subscription is active in Sandbox (I see notifications arriving for it).
I’ve tried adding a brief waiting period (2 seconds) before calling the Sandbox endpoint, but it consistently returns 404. I’ve also tried multiple retries over a longer timeframe without success.
I tested multiple fresh Sandbox test users, ensuring each one was signed in to the device’s App Store. After each new purchase, I still get the same 404.
Additional Checks:
These are definitely auto-renewable subscriptions, not non-renewing or consumable products.
I also tried calling GET /inApps/v2/subscriptions/{transactionId}/latest but I still see 404.
I tried everything mentioned above in production as I said to no avail:
GET https://api.storekit.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v2/subscriptions/{originalTransactionId}/latest
We have implementend Storekit 2 in our app, for one time purchases and subscriptions, so it is iOS15 and higher only.
Everything works fine, but now we want to add App Store promotions for our IAP's. That doesn't work because the App requires the app to implement SKPaymentTransactionObserver
How to Promote Your In-App Purchases
Make sure your app supports a delegate method in SKPaymentTransactionObserver. You can choose to customize which promoted in-app purchases a user sees on a specific device by implementing SKProductStorePromotionController.
The problem is that this observer is part of the original Storekit API and not of the new one.
What can we do to make this work with the new Storekit 2 API?
I'm getting really frustrated with emails from my App users who believe they've been charged for a free in-app purchase when they haven't.
My App offers many in-app purchases of digital items and I give 4 of these away for free to let users get comfortable with how it works in-app.
Over the last couple of years I've had a steady increase in angry emails from users who accuse me of fraud by charging them for a free item. I couldn't figure out for a while what this was as they would leave a 1 star rating, delete the app and ignore my emails for more information.
Recently I had someone a bit more patient engage and explain it to me.
The purchase for some reason popped up on my notifications right when I bought the [Free Item in my app]. It was from a movie I bought and the bill was delayed.
The timing of that notification is what is misleading users about the free in-app purchase.
Can someone take note of this please and perhaps delay any payment notifications so they aren't sent when the in-app purchase is for FREE?
Thanks!
Regarding App Store Server Notifications V2,we are currently using Notifications V2 in a production environment.
It is set up so that if the server receives the notification successfully, it returns 200 after about 30 seconds, and if an error occurs, it returns 400 or 500.
However, the notification is being resent multiple times from Apple's server, at 1 hour, 12 hours, and 24 hours.
Is it necessary to return the notification using Apple's API?

I just converted my App to Freemium, but the method is used to give user, that bought the App before it was free, access to the paid futures seems not to be working.
I am getting the original Purchase Date from the AppTransaction (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/apptransaction/originalpurchasedate) and comparing that to a set date where the App Model changed. In Test Flight this is working without any Problems but on the Live System, users that have purchased the App do not get access!
let shared = try await AppTransaction.refresh()
if case .verified(let appTransaction) = shared {
result(appTransaction.originalPurchaseDate.ISO8601Format()).
}
I am using flutter to develop the App and the result()... send the string back to the flutter side.
Here is the code of the Flutter side:
Future<void> restorePurchases() async {
SubscriptionProvider().updatePayment(PurchaseStatus.pending);
await InAppPurchase.instance.restorePurchases();
if (Platform.isIOS) {
DateTime changedToFreemium = DateTime.utc(2025, 4, 7, 11, 0, 0);
String? purchaseDateRaw = await IosFlutterChannel().getOriginalPurchaseDate();
if (kDebugMode) {
print("Purchase Date Raw: $purchaseDateRaw");
}
if (purchaseDateRaw != null) {
DateTime purchaseDate = DateTime.parse(purchaseDateRaw);
if (purchaseDate.isBefore(changedToFreemium)) {
if (kDebugMode) {
print("Restoring legacy purchases");
}
SubscriptionProvider().update(true, SubscriptionStatus.active, SubscriptionType.fs_lifetime);
} else {
if (kDebugMode) {
print("Not restoring legacy purchases");
}
}
}
}
SubscriptionProvider().updatePayment(PurchaseStatus.purchased);
}
Console Log when running in Test Environment:
flutter: Purchase Date Raw: 2013-08-01T07:00:00Z
flutter: Restoring legacy purchases
Thanks!
The development subscription management screen for managing your sandbox account subscriptions is today showing products that belong to other apps.
Is there a known issue right now?

Hi,
We're currently experiencing an issue with consumable In-App Purchases on our production iOS app. Until the end of May, everything was working as expected, but starting in early June, our app no longer receives any products when calling queryProductDetails() using Flutter’s in_app_purchase plugin (which utilizes StoreKit).
Here’s what we’ve confirmed so far:
The product IDs are correctly configured in App Store Connect, and all items are marked as “Approved.”
No recent changes have been made to the bundle ID or the product IDs.
The “Base Territory” setting was updated for each IAP item in early May. After that change, product retrieval and purchases were working normally through the end of May.
This issue is happening on real devices in production, and multiple users are affected.
The same functionality continues to work correctly on Android.
All requested product IDs are being returned in the notFoundIDs list of the queryProductDetails() response.
We're quite puzzled by this issue as no clear cause has been identified so far.
Any thoughts on this issue would be much appreciated.
Thank you!
We are running into exceptions when trying to parse Purchase Date and Original Purchase Date from the base64 encoded receipt.
Expected RFC 3339 format of ASN.1 Field Value is: yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ but we end up getting back 2025-04-22T19.49.03Z.
Started to happen on 3rd Dec 2024.
