Reply to Pricing of individual non-consumables and packs of non-consumables.
Would this configuration of in app purchses pass review? Probably, though you would need to be very clear in your "review notes" about how to purchase them. I.e. in your review notes for the "pack of n", you would need to write "IMPORTANT: this IAP is only shown in the user interface to users who have already purchased particular combinations of other IAPs. So before you can purchase this, you must follow the following steps to purchase other IAPS: 1.... 2.... 3.... 4... 5.... 6... . Now, when you do XYZ, you will see a button "Buy Pack of N". Tap this to purchase this IAP. After completing the app store purchase process, If you now tap JKLMNOP you will see QWERTY, as shown in the attached screenshot, indicating that the purchase has completed." Suggestion: write out these instructions, then see if a random friend can follow them having never seen your app before.

I do not know whether you are from the technical support of Apple developers or not Not. Apple people have different icons next to their names. ... application that was rejected more than once by Apple and the reason was for a previous problem that was solved, and I write that the problem has been solved ... When you've solved the problem, you need to re-submit the app to App Review for them to consider again. You can't initiate this just by emailing someone.

Reply to QR Code Deep Links?
I cannot find a QR code generator that will allow us to enter an Apple Universal Link. "Universal Links" are regular HTTPS URLs, so every QR code generator should be able to create them. (I use a trivial command-line utility called qrencode; its probably on homebrew.) Having said that, I don't know for sure that if e.g. the camera app views a QR code for a universal link, it will actually invoke the associated app. If I recall correctly, typing a universal link URL into the Safari address bar does not launch the associated app.

Reply to Swift Regex too slow als grep replacement?
You need a Swift expert to understand that. You need, somehow, to avoid allocating memory for and copying strings for every line. Or alternatively, create a regex you can apply to the entire input, which matches just the bits you want but captures the entire line. Then you wouldn't need to split.

Reply to In App Purchase product details from backend server.
product amount What exactly do you mean by "product amount"? the above link you share that will I am aware but it is for fetching product details from iOS application. No it isn't. It's part of the App Store Connect API, which you can call from your server etc.

Reply to Struct with an 'expiry date' - how to create elegantly?
I still need a timer somewhere to trigger the 'is_new' getter (do you mean the didSet?). No, I mean getter. Don't store the isNew boolean. Compute it in the getter by comparing the expiry time in the struct with the current time. No timer required.

Reply to How to reconcile Apple finance reports with App Store Service state
Our finance team is trying to reconcile the financial reports we receive from Apple and the IAP subscription state (App Store service state). Why? I humbly suggest that you tell them not to bother. Just accept the numbers in the financial report as your income. I mean, what would you do if you found a discrepancy?

Presumably they believe that the problem is not resolved. Just telling them that it is resolved is not sufficient, they need to actually see that it is resolved when they use the app.

Reply to How is receipt validation supposed to work for a new Mac version of an old iOS app?
I know of one user where the receipt obtained in the macOS version makes no mention of the past iOS purchase. It seems that you know the answer! (I guess it would be more definitive if you had feedback from two users....)
