External Link Account API - ExternalLinkAccount.canOpen() always return false
This is a hybrid app built with JavaScript (Vue) + Capacitor. It is a reader app and has been authorized by Apple to use the External Link Account Entitlement, allowing users to manage their subscriptions outside of the app. I have implemented the External Link Account API. When I click on "Gerenciar Assinatura em...", I use the External Link Account API to check if the modal is available (using ExternalLinkAccount.canOpen()). I always get "false". my plugin in swift: my app: I believe this is due to the fact that I am in a development environment. My project is configured correctly in the following files: info.plist and App.entitlements. I also have the authorization in my profile visible in Xcode. I have attached screenshots for validation. The question is: should the External Link Account API work in a test environment? I am testing the build in Xcode with a physical iPhone with iOS 18. file info.plist: file App.entitlements: xcode with authorization in my profile: If you could let me know if I am doing something wrong, I would greatly appreciate it.

StoreKit 2: Handle unfinished consumables
I have non-consumable and consumable in-app purchases in my app. The tutorial I was following stated Transaction.currentEntitlements includes unfinished consumables, which is incorrect according to the documentation. Is the correct way to handle unfinished consumables (and non-consumables) to implement Transaction.updates and call finish() if it’s verified? The documentation says that listener will receive unfinished transactions once upon app launch, so with that, do I understand correctly you do not need to implement Transaction.unfinished unless you want to look for unfinished transactions manually later on? Otherwise what is the correct and most recommended way to handle unfinished consumables? Is there a way to test that scenario in Xcode?

Consolidate subscriptions between apps
Because of historical reasons we have the same app with different bundle identifiers in different App Stores, e. g. one in Germany and one in Poland and one in France. Every app offers a monthly and a yearly in app subscription. We want to consolidate our apps and user base and want to have only one app in the end. The question is now: Can Apple make the monthly/daily subscriptions from e. g. the app in the store in Poland available or migrate them to the german app in the german App Store when we make the "german" app available also in Poland? The final goal would be that a user who bought a subscription in the polish store would have the subscription also available on his Apple ID in the german store. Is this possible? Can Apple make this possible?

iOS misleading users with payment notification timing
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!

Issue that subscription products (monthly subscription and annual subscription) cannot be obtained from App Store Connect
Dear my friends, I have set up two subscriptions (monthly and annual) in App Store Connect. By configuring with StoreKit, I can import the configurations from App Store Connect into the local .storekit file, and the program can run normally. However, when the StoreKit configuration is set to NONE, I am unable to retrieve product information from App Store Connect. The code for fetching the product list is as follows. Could you please provide suggestions on how to proceed? Thank you very much! private let productIds: [String] = ["subscription.year", "subscription.monthly"] subscriptions = try await Product.products(for: productIds)

Server Not Receiving Apple App Store Server Notification
Hello, Our server isn't receiving Apple App Store Server Notification for in-app purchases. It works for Sandbox Server, even I sent a test notification which I received on the Production Server URL, but the real in-app payment notification isn't coming to the server. I checked this already: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreservernotifications/enabling-app-store-server-notifications and everything here has been reviewed. Transport Layer Security (TLS) version and others things mentioned have been checked, test notification was received. But the main in-app purchase notification for live transaction isn't coming. What's the issue precisely?

In-App Purchase products suddenly not returned by queryProductDetails
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!

IOS IAP initialization failed: NoProductsAvailable - No Product returned from store but this app works on Android and google play store
works perfectly on android but doesn't work at all on IOS and i have used the same bundle id and product ids on both stores. The error that i get on IOS is : "IAP initialization failed: NoProductsAvailable - No Product returned from store" Here are the things that i've done: Created an App ID on the apple developer portal with the correct capabilities I have enabled the correct capabilities on the xcode project Unity Framework is embed and signed, Storekit (do not embed) In singin and capabilities in-app purchases is there I am using testflight to submit the app with a distribution certificate that appears to be valid I've checked the the bundle identifier and it's the same everywhere (unity project, xcode project, App ID) All of the products are cleared for sale and are in the status "ready to submit" I always uninstall the old app version before testing the new one My banking updates are still processing does this effect TestFlight IAP Paid Apps Agreement is in Pending User Info state does this effect also I still haven't filled out the tax forms, so I'm wondering if I need to complete them before my app's in-app purchases (IAPs) work in TestFlight.

Transaction.updates sending me duplicated transactions after marking finished()
Hey y'all, I'm reaching out because of an observed issue that I am experience both in sandbox and in production environments. This issue does not occur when using the Local StoreKit configurations. For context, my app only implements auto-renewing subscriptions. I'm trying to track with my own analytics every time a successful purchase is made, whether in the app or externally through Subscription Settings. I'm seeming too many events for just one purchase. My app is observing Transaction.updates. When I make a purchase with Product.purchase(_:), I successfully handle the purchase result. After a few seconds, I receive 2-3 new transactions in my Transaction.updates, even though I already handled and finished the Purchase result. The transactions seem to have the same transactionId, and values such as revocationDate, expirationDate, and isUpgraded don't seem to change between any of them. For purchases made outside the app, I get the same issue. Transaction gets handled in updates several times. Note that this is not an issue if a subscription renews. I use `Transaction.reason

Hey y'all, I'm reaching out because of an observed issue that I am experience both in sandbox and in production environments. This issue does not occur when using the Local StoreKit configurations. For context, my app only implements auto-renewing subscriptions. I'm trying to track with my own analytics every time a successful purchase is made, whether in the app or externally through Subscription Settings. I'm seeming too many events for just one purchase. My app is observing Transaction.updates. When I make a purchase with Product.purchase(_:), I successfully handle the purchase result. After about 10-20 seconds, I receive 2-3 new transactions in my Transaction.updates, even though I already handled and finished the Purchase result. This happens on production, where renewals are one week. This also happens in Sandbox, where at minimum renewals are every 3 minutes. The transactions do not differ in transactionId, revocationDate, expirationDate, nor isUpgraded... so not sure why they're coming in through Transaction.updates if there are no "updates" to be processing. For purchases made outside the app, I get the same issue. Transaction gets handled in updates several times. Note that this is not an issue if a subscription renews. I use `Transaction.reason I want to assume that StoreKit is a perfect API and can do no wrong (I know, a poor assumption but hear me out)... so where am I going wrong? My current thought is a Swift concurrency issue. This is a contrived example: // Assume Task is on MainActor Task(priority: .background) { @MainActor in for await result in Transaction.updates in { // We suspend current process, // so will we go to next item in the `for-await-in` loop? // Because we didn't finish the first transaction, will we see it again in the updates queue? await self.handle(result) } } @MainActor func handle(result) async { ... await Analytics.sendEvent("purchase_success") transaction.finish() }

Sandbox users always are owning application
Hi! I'm trying to implement a two week free trial for my existing paid ipad app. Following the guidance from the wwdc2022/10007, I'm using AppTransaction.shared and checking the result. I'm getting a verified result, but the appTransaction.originalPurchaseDate is always the same date - 2013-08-01 07:00:00 +0000 / 397033200, even the particular sandbox account user never had a purchase. This makes testing the logical branch of "has this user never purchased this app before" if the app store is always telling us that it's been purchased. (I've been using new sandbox account, so there should be no history) Here's some code that includes hacking around always getting that original purchase date. We're in the final stretches, and wanting to test things that will be closer to actual store behavior (and I'm thinking that always returning a purchased date for an unpurchased app wouldn't be happening) Am I just holding things wrong? Sandbox bug/limitatiin I just have to live with? thanks! ++md class MJAppStore: NSObject { @objc static let shared = MJAppStore() @objc func verifyAppStoreStatus(_ completion: @escaping (MJAppStoreStatus, Error?) -> Void) { Task { do { let status = try await doVerificationThing() completion(status, nil) } catch { completion(.error, error) } } } func doVerificationThing() async throws -> MJAppStoreStatus { do { let result = try await AppTransaction.shared print("TRIAL: survived AppTransaction.shared") switch result { case .unverified(_, _): print("TRIAL: app transaction UNVERIFIED") return .free case .verified(_): let appTransaction = try result.payloadValue // hack around the app store sandbox accounts saying we're purchased even though // we're not really. 2013-08-01 07:00:00 +0000 print("TRIAL: app transaction VERIFIED \(appTransaction.originalPurchaseDate.timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate) -> \(appTransaction.originalPurchaseDate)") if appTransaction.originalPurchaseDate.timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate == 397033200 { return .free } else { return .purchased } } } catch { ...

Auto-renewable subscriptions does not work in production
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.

Notification Received on Consumable Purchase
Hello, I am encountering an issue where I receive an App Store Server Notification V2 upon the purchase of a consumable item. I have configured the App Store Server Notification V2 endpoint to handle notifications related to subscription products. However, I did not expect to receive notifications for consumable purchases. The notification includes the following signedPayload decoded into the ResponseBodyV2DecodedPayload object with the following values: notificationUUID: 3cd6410b-0c89-4247-aba5-20710e79895e notificationType: null subtype: null The transaction information decoded from the ResponseBodyV2DecodedPayload object is as follows: transactionId: 2000000633622618 webOrderLineItemId: null productId: heart_2 To debug, I called the Get Notification History API of the App Store Server API, and the mentioned notification for the consumable product purchase is not included in the history. Only notifications related to subscription product purchases are retrieved. According to the notification type documentation, there is no explanation for cases where both notificationType and subtype are null, nor is there any mention of receiving notifications for consumable purchases. Therefore, I am uncertain how to interpret and handle this notification. Could you please provide an explanation or guidance on this issue? Thank you.

StoreKit.product.purchase returns success, but subscription does not appear in Settings
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+

Where can I check Non-Renewing Subscription purchase history in Sandbox?
Hello, I am currently testing In-App Purchases for my app in the Sandbox environment. Our app has two types of products: Auto-renewable subscriptions Non-renewing subscriptions When testing auto-renewable subscriptions, I can see the subscription in the Sandbox account management screen, and I can perform actions such as: Viewing the active subscription Cancelling the subscription Upgrading or downgrading the subscription However, when testing non-renewing subscriptions, I cannot find the purchase history anywhere in the Sandbox account management screen. Because of this, I cannot verify whether the non-renewing subscription purchase was recorded correctly. My question is: Where can I check the purchase history for Non-Renewing Subscriptions in the Sandbox environment? Is there a specific place in: App Store Connect Sandbox account settings Or somewhere else where these purchases can be reviewed? Thank you in advance for your help.

App crashes on launch due to missing Swift Concurrency symbol

Production review failed because IAP products cannot be loaded
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) } }

The currency information obtained from [priceLocale] differs between the TestFlight version and the official release version.
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?

The transactions seem to have the same transactionId, and values such as revocationDate, expirationDate, and isUpgraded don't seem to change between any of them. For purchases made outside the app, I get the same issue. Transaction gets handled in updates several times. Note that this is not an issue if a subscription renews. I use `Transaction.reason

Transaction.updates sending me duplicated transactions after marking finished()
Hey y'all, I'm reaching out because of an observed issue that I am experience both in sandbox and in production environments. This issue does not occur when using the Local StoreKit configurations. For context, my app only implements auto-renewing subscriptions. I'm trying to track with my own analytics every time a successful purchase is made, whether in the app or externally through Subscription Settings. I'm seeming too many events for just one purchase. My app is observing Transaction.updates. When I make a purchase with Product.purchase(_:), I successfully handle the purchase result. After about 10-20 seconds, I receive 2-3 new transactions in my Transaction.updates, even though I already handled and finished the Purchase result. This happens on production, where renewals are one week. This also happens in Sandbox, where at minimum renewals are every 3 minutes. The transactions do not differ in transactionId, revocationDate, expirationDate, nor isUpgraded... so not sure why they're coming in through Transaction.updates if there are no "updates" to be processing. For purchases made outside the app, I get the same issue. Transaction gets handled in updates several times. Note that this is not an issue if a subscription renews. I use `Transaction.reason I want to assume that StoreKit is a perfect API and can do no wrong (I know, a poor assumption but hear me out)... so where am I going wrong? My current thought is a Swift concurrency issue. This is a contrived example: // Assume Task is on MainActor Task(priority: .background) { @MainActor in for await result in Transaction.updates in { // We suspend current process, // so will we go to next item in the `for-await-in` loop? // Because we didn't finish the first transaction, will we see it again in the updates queue? await self.handle(result) } } @MainActor func handle(result) async { ... await Analytics.sendEvent("purchase_success") transaction.finish() }

Sandbox users always are owning application
Hi! I'm trying to implement a two week free trial for my existing paid ipad app. Following the guidance from the wwdc2022/10007, I'm using AppTransaction.shared and checking the result. I'm getting a verified result, but the appTransaction.originalPurchaseDate is always the same date - 2013-08-01 07:00:00 +0000 / 397033200, even the particular sandbox account user never had a purchase. This makes testing the logical branch of "has this user never purchased this app before" if the app store is always telling us that it's been purchased. (I've been using new sandbox account, so there should be no history) Here's some code that includes hacking around always getting that original purchase date. We're in the final stretches, and wanting to test things that will be closer to actual store behavior (and I'm thinking that always returning a purchased date for an unpurchased app wouldn't be happening) Am I just holding things wrong? Sandbox bug/limitatiin I just have to live with? thanks! ++md class MJAppStore: NSObject { @objc static let shared = MJAppStore() @objc func verifyAppStoreStatus(_ completion: @escaping (MJAppStoreStatus, Error?) -> Void) { Task { do { let status = try await doVerificationThing() completion(status, nil) } catch { completion(.error, error) } } } func doVerificationThing() async throws -> MJAppStoreStatus { do { let result = try await AppTransaction.shared print("TRIAL: survived AppTransaction.shared") switch result { case .unverified(_, _): print("TRIAL: app transaction UNVERIFIED") return .free case .verified(_): let appTransaction = try result.payloadValue // hack around the app store sandbox accounts saying we're purchased even though // we're not really. 2013-08-01 07:00:00 +0000 print("TRIAL: app transaction VERIFIED \(appTransaction.originalPurchaseDate.timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate) -> \(appTransaction.originalPurchaseDate)") if appTransaction.originalPurchaseDate.timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate == 397033200 { return .free } else { return .purchased } } } catch { ...

Purchase Date and Original Purchase Date format
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.

Auto-renewable subscriptions does not work in production
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.

Subscribers of App1 have access to App2??
Hi there, I have a plan of creating another app in the same niche, but I would like the actual subscribers to have access to the new app. So the subscribers of App 1 don't need to subscribe to App 2. Is that possible? Thanks Pedro M.R. Gregorio

Notification Received on Consumable Purchase
Hello, I am encountering an issue where I receive an App Store Server Notification V2 upon the purchase of a consumable item. I have configured the App Store Server Notification V2 endpoint to handle notifications related to subscription products. However, I did not expect to receive notifications for consumable purchases. The notification includes the following signedPayload decoded into the ResponseBodyV2DecodedPayload object with the following values: notificationUUID: 3cd6410b-0c89-4247-aba5-20710e79895e notificationType: null subtype: null The transaction information decoded from the ResponseBodyV2DecodedPayload object is as follows: transactionId: 2000000633622618 webOrderLineItemId: null productId: heart_2 To debug, I called the Get Notification History API of the App Store Server API, and the mentioned notification for the consumable product purchase is not included in the history. Only notifications related to subscription product purchases are retrieved. According to the notification type documentation, there is no explanation for cases where both notificationType and subtype are null, nor is there any mention of receiving notifications for consumable purchases. Therefore, I am uncertain how to interpret and handle this notification. Could you please provide an explanation or guidance on this issue? Thank you.

StoreKit.product.purchase returns success, but subscription does not appear in Settings
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+

Where can I check Non-Renewing Subscription purchase history in Sandbox?
Hello, I am currently testing In-App Purchases for my app in the Sandbox environment. Our app has two types of products: Auto-renewable subscriptions Non-renewing subscriptions When testing auto-renewable subscriptions, I can see the subscription in the Sandbox account management screen, and I can perform actions such as: Viewing the active subscription Cancelling the subscription Upgrading or downgrading the subscription However, when testing non-renewing subscriptions, I cannot find the purchase history anywhere in the Sandbox account management screen. Because of this, I cannot verify whether the non-renewing subscription purchase was recorded correctly. My question is: Where can I check the purchase history for Non-Renewing Subscriptions in the Sandbox environment? Is there a specific place in: App Store Connect Sandbox account settings Or somewhere else where these purchases can be reviewed? Thank you in advance for your help.

App crashes on launch due to missing Swift Concurrency symbol

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.

Production review failed because IAP products cannot be loaded
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) } }

The currency information obtained from [priceLocale] differs between the TestFlight version and the official release version.
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?
