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.

Hello, We have been approved for the Advanced commerce API and we are trying to implement dynamically created subscriptions via the SubscriptionCreateRequest. We followed the Sending Advanced Commerce API requests from your app (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/sending-advanced-commerce-api-requests-from-your-app) documentation but we are not able to make it work correctly. We created a generic subscription in the Appstore connect, product ID: com.example.subscription Then in the app we load the subscription: try await Product.products(for: ["com.example.subscription"]) We do the JWS serialization on our backend and then we wrap the jwt and convert it to Data in the app as this: let request = """ { "signatureInfo": { "token": "\(result.signedPayload)" } } """ let advancedCommerceRequestData = Data(request.utf8) Lastly, we apply the purchase options on the generic product as this: try await product.purchase( options: [ Product.PurchaseOption.custom( key: "advancedCommerceData", value: advancedCommerceRequestData ) ] ) It doesn't show any error, but on the payment sheet it shows the data from the generic subscription and not the data that was in the SubscriptionCreateRequest. Here is an example of the generated jwt: eyJraWQiOiI4V0tNQjhLWTI0IiwidHlwIjoiSldUIiwiYWxnIjoiRVMyNTYifQ.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.kJ0f_q2A11Mn9OBmvX6SRmtW5P--volFTVcq_Gohs3N51ECfZqS3WHOxOZc7aojq_qiUHGFp_evmHP51f3LzSw

Hi, I'm new to AppStore Connect, and I'm learning how subscriptions work. I'm finalizing my first app, but on my TF, I'm having some issues with the price: it's always displayed in US dollars on my paywall. When I tap "subscribe," the Apple sheet correctly offers the price in euros. I'm using Product.displayPrice to display the price in my paywall. The documentation did mention it is The localized string representation of the product price, suitable for display. So, is it normal in my case for the price in dollars to be displayed and not the price in euros like the Apple sheet? Thank you in advance for your help.

Please allow me to confirm the Server Notifications V2 specification. I am aware that if withdrawal an Apple account that has a subscription, the subscription will eventually be cancelled. Regarding Server Notifications V2 notifications with a notificationType of EXPIRED, am I correct in thinking that they will be sent when the subscription expires even if the Apple account is withdrawal?

Hi everyone, I've been going back and forth with Apple’s review team for over 10 days now, and I'm still unable to get my first In-App Purchase (IAP) working correctly. Here's what’s happening: ✅ The IAP works perfectly when I build and run directly from Xcode. ❌ However, when I test the app via TestFlight, tapping the purchase buttons does nothing—the IAP sheet doesn't appear. Key issue (I think): I believe the IAP hasn't been submitted properly for review. On App Store Connect, I cannot select the IAP under the “In-App Purchases” section of the version submission page. It's grayed out or not listed at all. As a result, Apple keeps rejecting my binary due to the IAP not being included in the review. What I’ve already done: Created the IAP (non-consumable) Set pricing and cleared all errors Checked Bundle ID, Product ID, and entitlements Added In-App Purchase capability to the app target Uploaded the binary via Xcode Waited multiple times for status updates My questions: What’s the correct process to link the IAP to a specific app version if it doesn't show up in the version page? Could this be an issue with App Store Connect metadata or approval timing, or am I missing something in Xcode/build settings? Is there any way to force re-sync the IAP so it appears when submitting the build? Has anyone resolved a similar issue recently? This process has been incredibly frustrating, and the feedback from the review team so far has been very vague. I would really appreciate any detailed insight or steps to ensure the IAP is submitted correctly and works on TestFlight. Thank you in advance!

I try to access the AppDistributor.current (using try await) and the property never seem to return nor throw. The code I'm using looks like this: do { print("accessing current") let current = try await AppDistributor.current print("current obtained") switch(current) { case .appStore: return "AppStore" default: return "Unknown" } } catch { return "Exception: \(error)" } But the log only shows the accessing current and never the current obtained. Trying to step in the property starts with some assembly, but at some point, the debugger just never returned. I join a full Swift file of a sample test I'm using: SwiftMarketplaceTests.swift

How can I get the region region currently used in the macOS App Store? Preferably via Swift libraries, but any command / function will suffice. The following StoreKit property seems to always return the region for the Apple Account associated with my macOS user. await Storefront.current?.countryCode See the Apple docs. My macOS Apple Account region is US; in the App Store, when I sign into a different Apple Account whose region is GB (UK), Storefront.current?.countryCode continues to return US, not GB (or UK). I correctly see prices in pounds instead of in dollars, British spelling instead of American spelling, apps listed in my purchased tab for the UK (not the US) Apple Account, and, in the Account Settings dialog, the UK Apple Account email address, billing address & Country/Region set to United Kingdom. I didn't get any relevant results from the following command lines: defaults find GB defaults find UK defaults find uk-apple-id@example.com defaults find uk-apple-id The following didn't change after I signed into the UK Apple Account in the App Store: $ defaults read com.apple.AppStoreComponents { ASCLocaleID = "en-US@calendar=gregorian"; } Maybe Storefront.current?.countryCode only specifies the country code for the Storefront that will be used for in-app purchases, instead of for purchasing new apps from the App Store; maybe the former is tied to the Apple Account for the macOS user, instead of to the Apple Account for the App Store. If that's the case, what other mechanism can I use to obtain the country code for the App Store storefront?

Hey guys, I am developing a habit tracker app right now. I know it's basic but it's my first app and I wanted an easy start but this is more of a struggle than I thought. So I am trying to publish my app fully on the App Store however everytime I do there is some kind of bug with it. But when I test it, it works perfect for me. Anyways, in this case the reviewer said when they go to the pro page of my app to purchase a pro subscription and try to press upgrade to pro nothing pops up. It pops up normally for me on my iPhone but not other devices. I wanted to make sure if this was normal or if there is something I am supposed to fix. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, I am trying to obtain the subscription expiry date or purchase date from server using Storekit2 for my project. I have an account which is already having an active subscription but it still says no purchase found. Thanks

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?

I have a renewing monthly subscription in my app and recently added upgrade possibilities to yearly and 6 month subscriptions. Those new subscriptions were reviewed, approved and published to App Store. I'm showing a modal for users in the app from where they can upgrade their subscription. Upgrading was tested with real devices on Sandbox and TestFlight. There has been successful purchases through the in app modal in production app, and directly upgrading from App Store. However, for some users there seems to happen a failed transaction with paymentCancelled error code during the upgrade. The IAP is still successful, their subscription is upgraded and they haven't voluntarily canceled the IAP. The localized description of the error is "Toimintoa ei voitu suorittaa. (Virhe 2 kohteessa SKErrorDomain.)" which translates to "The operation could not be completed. (Error 2 in SKErrorDomain.)" These users have various iPhones (iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 16 Pro) with up to date iOS versions (>= 18.3.1). I'm receiving DID_CHANGE_RENEWAL_PREF (UPGRADE) server notification of these purchases on my server. I haven't been able to reproduce this error myself. Any ideas why StoreKit might fail the transaction with paymentCancelled error but still successfully upgrade the subscription?

Hi everyone, I am working on a Unity iOS app. I am adding in-app purchasing in my app. I have added Unity IAP to the Unity project, as well as the code for initialising and purchasing a subscription with the product ID. I have also added my certificates and provisioning profile in Xcode with in-app purchasing capabilities. Also, I have set up an App Store Connect page with a non-renewing subscription with a unique product ID and all required information. The subscription status is ready to submit. I have added a sandbox tester account in it. In unity editor, it is working fine with fake purchase receipt. While testing in an iOS device, apple ID is logged out. But there is an error occurs everytime : IAP not initialized. Also I have uploaded a newer version of app on app store connect, it is in waiting for review status. Is there any step or something I am missing that it is not working in iOS device? Please help

I cannot explain how frustrating this is. Not that I want to compare to Android, but in 3 years of QA Testing my app, Android works like a dream, while iOS fights with me EVERY SINGLE STEP OF THE WAY. Hopefully someone here can tell me what I am missing/doing wrong/which god I must appease to get this to work. I have 3 REAL iPhones of varying iOS versions and ages. But they are all proper actual iPhones. We use google accounts at this company, so my primary email is a gmail one. I have created MANY sandbox accounts inside App Store Connect. Currently I have 2, and 2 of my devices (both 14's one of which is a Pro) have my Primary account as the main account for the device. But they both also have a Sandbox account which is simply my main email with a +sandbox in it to make it a new unique email. Here is the problem, nothing works as expected ever. I can install my Staging and Production apps from TestFlight, then I can make a subscription purchase as a customer would and I SHOULD see that subscription in my Sandbox right? That's the point of a Sandbox and TestFlight is it not? But in ALL cases whenever I try to view my 'Sandbox Subscriptions' it tells me I don't have any. Now, sometimes, very occasionally, I get a specific error message inside my app when attempting to make a purchase, this one states something like 'You already have a subscription, please restore it instead...' which makes no sense. Since it clearly states that I have none. But this message has a 'Manage' button to manage my subscriptions, tapping it lads me to a windows which amazing DOES have a subscription in it. But attempting to 'Cancel' it does nothing, just refreshes the screen to be the same. Now I think that this subscription is actually attached to the primary account on the device and NOT the sandbox account. So when this happens I cannot subscribe, I cannot restore, and I cannot manually alter the subscription within iOS. So I am stuck at this point. What am I doing wrong, am I setting this all up in the wrong order? Do I need to install some kind of profile or security cert, do I need to give a pint of blood to Imhotep? What am I missing. I even once sat on the phone for 90 minutes with an Apple Support Rep who took me through it step by step, same result. Also I just noticed that inside 'App Store Connect' when you look at the list of 'Sandbox' accounts there is a column for 'Last Purchase' which is entirely blank, apparently after a year of use I have NEVER purchased on the Sandbox, which is another reason I think my subs are going to the main email, not the sandbox one. I tried using the sandbox email as the main account for the whole device, I can't recall the result but it was worse and didn't work at all. So that's not it. https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/test-in-app-purchases/create-a-sandbox-apple-account/ The instructions on this page are not detailed enough and were not helpful to me. All I really want to know is how to fully setup a real actual iPhone for TestFlight and Sandbox testing of a app. WHat order do I create accounts, validate emails, attach to devices, login with etc etc etc. Step by step, nothing no matter how mundane missed out. A true idiots guide to making this work for me. Testing this on Android always takes 5 mins. iPhone, I'm lucky if I am done in half a day. Please help and thanks for reading!

Hi everyone, I’m struggling to get StoreKit 2 to fetch products in my SwiftUI app while using a sandbox user. I think I’ve followed all necessary setup steps in Xcode, App Store Connect, and my physical test device, but Product.products(for:) always returns an empty array. I’d appreciate any insights! What I’ve Done Local App Setup (Xcode 16.2) Created a blank SwiftUI Xcode project. Enabled In-App Purchase capability under Signing & Capabilities. Implemented minimal StoreKit 2 code to fetch available products (see below). Using the correct bundle identifier, which matches App Store Connect. App Store Connect Configuration Registered the app with the same bundle identifier. Created an Auto-Renewable Subscription with: Product ID: v1 (matches my code). All fields filled (pricing, localization, etc.). Status: Ready for Review. Linked the subscription to the latest app version in App Store Connect. Sandbox User & Testing Setup Created a sandbox tester account. Logged in with the sandbox user under Settings → Developer → Sandbox Apple ID. This was on my physical device (iOS 18.2). Installed and ran the app directly from Xcode (⌘+R). Issue: StoreKit Returns No Products Product.products(for:) does not return any products. There are no errors thrown, just an empty array. I confirmed that StoreKit Configuration is set to None in Xcode. No StoreKit-related logs appear in the Console. Code Snippets //StoreKitManager.swift import StoreKit import SwiftUI @MainActor class StoreKitManager: ObservableObject { @Published var products: [Product] = [] @Published var errorMessage: String? func fetchProducts() async { do { let productIDs: Set<String> = ["v1"] // Matches App Store Connect let fetchedProducts = try await Product.products(for: productIDs) print(fetchedProducts) // Debug output DispatchQueue.main.async { self.products = fetchedProducts } } catch { DispatchQueue.main.async { self.errorMessage = "Failed to fetch products: \(error.localizedDescription)" } } } } //ContentView.swift import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @StateObject private var storeKitManager = StoreKitManager() var body: some View { VStack { if let errorMessage = storeKitManager.errorMessage { Text(errorMessage).foregroundColor(.red) } else if storeKitManager.products.isEmpty { Text("No products available") } else { List(storeKitManager.products, id: \.id) { product in VStack(alignment: .leading) { Text(product.displayName).font(.headline) Text(product.description).font(.subheadline) Text("\(product.price.formatted(.currency(code: product.priceFormatStyle.currencyCode ??

Hello 👋! I'm trying to switch the business model in my app from premium to freemium, gracefully so that existing users aren't bothered. I'd like to provide newly-paywalled content for original paid users. For this to work, I need to use originalAppVersion in AppTransaction, and support iOS 16 at minimum. I've asked about originalAppVersion earlier here. I've upped to iOS 16 already, but I don't exactly know how to call AppTransaction.shared to get originalAppVersion. The issue lies in the fact that my app is based on SpriteKit, so the operative areas I have available to call AppTransaction are ostensibly limited to AppDelegate and GameViewController. I'm using the code from Supporting business model changes by using the app transaction, but if I place it in either GameViewController or AppDelegate, for example in application(_:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:) or viewDidLoad(), I get an error concerning async/await. Now, I understand the gist of it: these are not asynchronous methods. So I'm trying to understand how to do it perhaps outside of these methods. How do I call AppTransaction.shared (and fetch originalAppVersion) in a SpriteKit based app?

I have been receiving beta software from the iPad App Store, despite not being enrolled in a beta program. Additionally, I do not have TestFlight or the Feedback app installed on my device. There are no certificates or profiles displayed either. I am using the App Store app that comes preinstalled on my device (note that I am not located in Europe). My iPad has been experiencing significant bugs, including numerous screen glitches and periods of sluggishness. Furthermore, numerous applications have crashed frequently. I was able to confirm that I was receiving beta software because the crash reports include beta identifier numbers. According to Apple documentation regarding analytic reports, a beta identifier will only be visible for beta applications. anyone know what could be going on or how to fix this?

After the user initiates the subscription payment, the SDK returns an error type: user cancels. When the user initiates the payment again, Apple will deduct the payment twice and successfully deduct the previously cancelled SKU. This is a recent occurrence with a large amount of data, and the app has not been upgraded in any way. We need to seek help. Thank you

Hello, I'm encountering an issue when trying to use the subscriptionGroupLookups endpoint in the App Store Connect API. Despite having the correct setup, I continue to receive a 404 NOT FOUND error when making requests to: GET https://api.appstoreconnect.apple.com/v1/subscriptionGroupLookups Here is the current state of my environment: I am the Account Holder of the App Store Connect account The App Store Connect API key has been successfully created I have the correct Key ID, Issuer ID, and .p8 private key I can authenticate and access the apps and subscriptionGroups endpoints However, the subscriptionGroupLookups endpoint always returns: { "errors": [ { "status": "404", "code": "NOT_FOUND", "title": "The specified resource does not exist" } ] } I suspect that LookUp Keys (UUIDs) have not been assigned to our subscription groups, even though they were created and are active in App Store Connect. There is no “Request Access” button visible under the Integrations tab (as mentioned in Apple support instructions), and my keys appear under “App Store Connect API” > “Keys” as active. Questions: How can I ensure that LookUp Keys are assigned to my subscription groups? Is there a way to trigger this manually or via support? Has anyone successfully resolved this? Any advice or experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I have an auto-renewable subscription. I have two methods helping me keep track of when they are expired @MainActor public func isPurchased(product: Product) async -> Bool { guard let state = await product.currentEntitlement else { return false } switch state { case .unverified(_, _): return false case .verified(let transaction): await transaction.finish() return isTransactionRelevant(transaction) } } private func isTransactionRelevant(_ transaction: Transaction) -> Bool { if let revocationDate = transaction.revocationDate { logger.error("Transaction verification failed: Transaction was revoked on \(revocationDate)") return false } if let expirationDate = transaction.expirationDate, expirationDate < Date() { logger.error("Transaction verification failed: Transaction expired on \(expirationDate)") return false } if transaction.isUpgraded { logger.error("Transaction verification failed: Transaction was upgraded") return false } logger.info("Transaction verification succeeded") return true } I also have this that I can call to get the latest state of purchases @MainActor public func updateStoreKitSubscriptionStatus() async { var currentProductsPurchased: [Product] = [] for await result in Transaction.currentEntitlements { if case .verified(let transaction) = result { if isTransactionRelevant(transaction) { if let product = products.first( where: { $0.id == transaction.productID }) { currentProductsPurchased.append(product) } } await transaction.finish() } } self.purchasedProducts = currentProductsPurchased } Right now when a subscription expires the user needs to manually do some action that triggers updateStoreKitSubscriptionStatus() as it appears that expirations do not come through in Transaction.updates. I am surprised there does not seem to be a better way. Does StoreKit not notify you somewhere that an auto-renewable subscription has expired? Can you observe it in an ObservableObject? Or do I need to just frequently poll Transaction.currentEntitlements even if I dont expect frequent updates?

We’ve recently observed an escalating number of complaints from AlipayHK users regarding duplicate charges when completing transactions via Apple Pay. While no similar issues have been reported by users of other credit card providers integrated with Apple Pay, the problem appears isolated to AlipayHK transactions. Key Details: Multiple users confirm being charged twice for single transactions. Complaints are increasing in frequency, indicating a potential systemic issue. No overlapping reports from non-AlipayHK payment methods at this time. To safeguard customer trust and ensure seamless payment experiences, we kindly request Apple’s support in: Investigating whether the root cause stems from Apple Pay’s transaction handling. Collaborating with AlipayHK (if necessary) to resolve the issue promptly. Providing guidance on interim measures to prevent further duplicate charges. Could Apple confirm if this is a known issue and share a timeline for resolution? We’re eager to assist in any way possible to mitigate impact on users. Thank you for your urgent attention to this matter.
