sandbox account isn't logging in on purchase window
I don't know if I am posting this in the right place. I am using xcode's phone simulator and I have setup my sandbox account on appstoreconnect under users and access/sandbox/test accounts then in my app on the simulator when I tap the subscribe button to purchase my product the a window pops up for in app purchases and I get a login prompt for my sandbox credentials, but no matter how many times I enter them after tapping ok all I get is a blank login prompt. also not this a brand new sandbox account and I've only changed the password 3 times, that seems to be important because its inconsistent with some of the errors I am getting on the error log here is error log. Purchase did not return a transaction: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=530 "(null)" UserInfo={NSUnderlyingError=0x600000d09080 {Error Domain=AMSErrorDomain Code=100 "Authentication Failed The authentication failed."

Non-consumable IAP for free trial
Hello. My newly released app includes a 1 day free trial. I've done this by creating a non-consumable in-app purchase priced at 0. I consider the free trial active if there's a transaction (from Transaction.currentEntitlements) for that product such that transaction.originalPurchaseDate is less than 24 hours ago. This works fine locally in the simulator and also in TestFlight, however it does not seem to work in the actual app from the App Store. The user can "purchase" it fine; they see the purchase sheet with the product name and the $0.00 price, and when they double press the side button it all seems to work. However, the app then behaves as if it didn't work. The free trial product is no longer available though. One thing is that I didn't follow the naming convention “XX-day Trial”. Could that be the problem? If so, is that meant to be for the product reference name?

Official document for CONSUMPTION_REQUEST - What kind of data we are receiving?
This documentation describes what kind of data we should be sending to Apple server, once we are receiving CONSUMPTION_REQUEST https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreserverapi/consumptionrequest But, it doesn't describe what kind of data we are receiving, when we are receiving CONSUMPTION_REQUEST? May I know, is such a document available? Thank you.

[In-App Purchase] first trial but "is_trial_period" false
This question is about In-App Purchase. This is an inquiry from one of our customers. We have set up a free trial. This is your first time using the service, but you have stated that you have been charged. Document. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstorereceipts/is_trial_period 「You can use this value to determine whether the specific record is in a subscription trial period. If a previous subscription period in the receipt has the value "true" for either the is_trial_period or is_in_intro_offer_period keys, the user is not eligible for a free trial or introductory price within that subscription group.」 Our expectation is that is_trial_period is true. Receipt is not contain is_trial_period : true or is_in_intro_offer_period : true. Only one case has occurred. Other customers are no problem.

Error setting install attribution pingback
Hi there, We have an app targeted for children and we want to use the SkAdNetwork to track installs for campaigns. We don't want to track further in-app events (purchase etc.), just the install event. We added the SDK to our Unity app, listed the network identifiers in the plist file, configured the external campaign according to their instructions, but struggle to see any events for several weeks now. We see the following logs in the app: Registering install attribution pingback. Failed to migrate Install Attribution database schema from 17001 => 17400. SkAdNetwork: No pingbacks found while attempting to register/update. Error setting install attribution pingback registered for app: 1509727806, error: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain code=1208 How can we debug this further? What does the error mean? Thank you very much! (I hope I posted in the correct forum topic. Apologies if not)

My iOS application cannot connect to the Sandbox environment.
I am testing the subscription flow in my iOS app. Initially, everything was working fine when following the official StoreKit and sandbox testing documentation. After a successful subscription, the “You’re all set” popup always displayed the environment as “sandbox.” However, after some changes, possibly upgrading macOS to the latest version, upgrading Xcode, or regenerating certificates, I can no longer connect to the sandbox testing environment. The subscription success popup now always shows the environment as “xcode.” By default, the iOS app should run in the sandbox on macOS, so I didn’t set the “Enable App Sandbox” option to “Yes” in the Xcode build settings. When I try enabling it, Xcode throws the following error: “Failed to verify code signature of /var/installd/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installd.staging/temp.n3J0tr/extracted/Payload/XXXX.app : 0xe8008015 (A valid provisioning profile for this executable was not found.) Please ensure that your app is signed by a valid provisioning profile.” Additionally, if “Enable App Sandbox” is set to “No,” the app installs successfully on a real device, but there is no prompt to trust an untrusted developer certificate, which usually appears for such certificates. I’m not sure if this information will be useful to others, but I’ve been stuck on this issue for a while, and it’s preventing me from moving forward with my work. Any help to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Get the region currently used in the macOS App Store
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?

AppDistributor.current never returning
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

Why can't the app get the subscription status occasionally?
Hi, I have developed an app which has two in-app purchase subscriptions. During the test, the app can successfully get the status of the subscriptions. After it's released, I downloaded it from app store and subscribed it with my apple account. I found that in most cases, the app can identify that I have subscribed it and I can use its all functions. But yesterday, when I launched it again, it showed the warning that I haven't subscribed it. I checked my subscription in my account and the subscription status hasn't been changed, that is, I have subscribed it. And after one hour, I launched it again. This time the app identified that I have subscribed it. Why? The following is the code about listening to the subscription status. Is there any wrong about it? HomeView() .onAppear(){ Task { await getSubscriptionStatus() } } func getSubscriptionStatus() async { var storeProducts = [Product]() do { let productIds = ["6740017137","6740017138"] storeProducts = try await Product.products(for: productIds) } catch { print("Failed product request: \(error)") } guard let subscription1 = storeProducts.first?.subscription else { // Not a subscription return } do { let statuses = try await subscription1.status for status in statuses { let info = try checkVerified(status.renewalInfo) switch status.state { case .subscribed: if info.willAutoRenew { purchaseStatus1 = true debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription is active.") } else { purchaseStatus1 = false debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription is expiring.") } case .inBillingRetryPeriod: debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription is in billing retry period.") purchaseStatus1 = false case .inGracePeriod: debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription is in grace period.") purchaseStatus1 = false case .expired: debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription is expired.") purchaseStatus1 = false case .revoked: debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription was revoked.") purchaseStatus1 = false default: fatalError("getSubscriptionStatus WARNING STATE NOT CONSIDERED.") } } } catch { // do nothing } guard let subscription2 = storeProducts.last?.subscription else { // Not a subscription return } do { let statuses = try await subscription2.status for status in statuses { let info = try checkVerified(status.renewalInfo) switch status.state { case .subscribed: if info.willAutoRenew { purchaseStatus2 = true debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription is active.") } else { purchaseStatus2 = false debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription is expiring.") } case .inBillingRetryPeriod: debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription is in billing retry period.") purchaseStatus2 = false case .inGracePeriod: debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription is in grace period.") purchaseStatus2 = false case .expired: debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription is expired.") purchaseStatus2 = false case .revoked: debugPrint("getSubscriptionStatus user subscription was revoked.") purchaseStatus2 = false default: fatalError("getSubscriptionStatus WARNING STATE NOT CONSIDERED.") } } } catch { // do nothing } if purchaseStatus1 == true || purchaseStatus2 == true { purchaseStatus = true } else if purchaseStatus1 == false && purchaseStatus2 == false { purchaseStatus = false } return }

Invalid currency symbol
Strange issue with currency display in subscription products Hi everyone, I'm facing a strange issue in my app where I use a subscription-based in-app purchase model. The products I created in App Store Connect are all in "Approved" status. I've tested with both RevenueCat and StoreKit, but the result is the same. Here are the products being loaded: Product loaded: weekly_product_id Display name: Weekly Pro Description: Weekly Pro Subscription Price: ₺229,99 Product loaded: annual_product_id Display name: Annual Pro Description: Annual Pro Subscription Price: ₺1.799,99 Even though I can see the correct prices and currency (Turkish Lira) in the Xcode debug console, on my real device the currency appears as Philippine Peso, as shown in the attached screenshot. Interestingly, in the iOS simulator, it's displayed in USD. I've double-checked and my device's region settings are set to Turkey. Any ideas on what could be causing this? And more importantly, how can I fix it? Thanks in advance!

Transaction.id will be repeated in Apple in-app purchase
In the sandbox environment, when I quickly and repeatedly purchase an item, Transaction.id will be repeated. Will there be duplication in the production environment? func pay(productId: String, orderId: String) async { guard !productId.isEmpty, !orderId.isEmpty else { return } let orderObj = ApplePayOrderModel.init(orderId: orderId, productId: productId) do { let result = try await Product.products(for: [productId]) guard let product = result.first else { return } let purchaseResult = try await product.purchase() switch purchaseResult { case .success(let verification): switch verification { case .verified(let transaction): orderObj.transactionId = String(transaction.id) await transaction.finish() case .unverified(let transaction, let error): await transaction.finish() } case .userCancelled: break case .pending: break @unknown default: break } } catch { print("error \(error.localizedDescription)") } }

Help: IAP Works in Xcode but Not in TestFlight – Cannot Link IAP to Version for Review
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!

Trouble with testing new receipt loading in place of exit(173)
I have several ObjC based apps in the App Store and used to validate the receipt file inside the app in my code, and then reject it with exit(173) if it's invalid, which did trigger macOS to update the receipt if possible. This isn't working any more in recent macOS versions, where the user is instead just told that the app is damaged, and they need to re-install it manually. Which sucks. So I wanted to update my code. I read about SKReceiptRefreshRequest, which is supposed to re-download and install the receipt file, if I understand it correctly. I implemented the code but now have trouble verifying that it works as intended, and does this in a user friendly way. I found in my tests that macOS now caches the receipt in ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstoreagent/fsCachedData and then hardlinks the file into the app. BTW: Sadly, this also requires that the app is located on the startup volume or the system will refuse to install the receipt, which wasn't a requirement in past times. Now, if the receipt is already present in the cache folder, then my code works - the receipt gets re-linked. But what if the cached receipt isn't there, yet? Such as that the user had copied the app from another Mac over to a freshly installed Mac? In the past, when the user then launched the app on the new Mac, he'd be prompted to login to the MAS and if that worked, the receipt would get installed and the app launched. Basically, the question is: What if the receipt validation fails in my app and I request a new receipt, but the user has not yet logged into MAS (e.g. new computer)? To simulate this, I logging out of the MAS and TestFlight, deleting all copies of the app and then run the app that I had copied from another Mac where it was authorized with a valid receipt for that device. If I do this with the old version that uses exit(173), I get these two messages in macOS 15.2: The second one is especially terrible because it shows the translocated path, which the average user surely get quite confused, and then maybe even search in vain for the app in there and get frustrated. But that's out of my hands. Sigh. Now, that was proving that the old method with exit(173) isn't working any more and needs to be changed in my apps. Since I'm still developing (testing) this new behavior, the app is therefore not in the MAS yet - the only way for me to test this is to use TestFlight. However, running a Testflight app copied from another Mac leads to this error: That is not helpful in simulating what would happen if this app was released in the MAS. This won't let me find out what happens if my app is run on a Mac where the receipt fails and I ask it to load it via SKReceiptRefreshRequest and if the user is NOT yet logged into the MAS account for this purchased app of his/hers. That leaves only one option: Release the app with untested code and hope for the best. Contrary to this new behavior, the old method did let me test this easily because I would just use the special App Store tester account with the MAS app, i.e. the built MAS app would, when I launched it locally, request for a login and I'd provide my tester's account. But this isn't available any more, apparently. What a mess.

appTransactionID behavior on logout
The appTransactionID was recently introduced and is documented here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/apptransaction/apptransactionid From the documentation: "The App Store generates a single, globally unique appTransactionID for each Apple Account that downloads your app and for each family group member for apps that support Family Sharing." This seems like a really useful identifier, so I was wondering about some edge cases of when using it: What happens if a user logs out of his AppStore account and keeps using the app? Is it available when the app is installed from Xcode? is it possible to set it to some value using StoreKit testing? Thanks

Not receiving App Store Server Notifications for failed transactions
We are currently integrating In-App Purchases for our app and have configured App Store Server Notifications (v2) in the Sandbox environment. During testing, we observed the following issue: When a transaction is cancelled, declined, or pending (e.g., Ask to Buy flows or authorization pending), No App Store Server Notification is sent to our webhook endpoint. We only receive webhook events where the status is "purchased". This becomes a critical problem for us because our backend must accurately track transaction states including failed and pending purchases, especially for wallet top-up use cases. Additionally, we tried mocking failed transactions (via Xcode local environment and turning off In-App Purchases from Developer Settings) to simulate a technical failure scenario. Even in these cases, no webhook notification was received when the purchase failed server-side. Is it expected behavior in Sandbox that only successful transactions ("purchased") trigger webhooks? Are failed or pending transactions suppressed in Sandbox intentionally? Will webhook behavior be different in Production (i.e., will we receive webhook notifications for failures there)? Is there any extra configuration or entitlement needed to fully test failure scenarios via webhooks in Sandbox?
