"In iTunes IAP space" Give a monthly subscription with 7 days freeTrail, what would be sequence of iTunes V2 notification for the following behaviour? When an end user purchases a subscription that includes a free trial. When the user transitions from the free‑trial period to the paid subscription period.

I did an in app purchase in my development app and now I cannot get rid of it. It is a "monthly" subscription that seems to renew every 1 day. I can see the subscription when I go to settings then tap on Subscriptions. Then I tap the item and choose "Cancel Subscription", revealing a new modal sheet saying "Confirm Cancellation". When I "Confirm", I get the popup: "Your request is temporarily unable to be processed, please try again later". However, this is anything BUT temporary, has gone on for a couple weeks now. As such, I am unable to test subscriptions in my development app. I've tried logging out, restarting, different devices, etc. The phone is logged in under my primary user account, and I may not have been logged into sandbox email when I did the purchase. Can someone forcibly remove it for me?

I’m testing auto-renewable subscription purchases in the sandbox environment. When I buy a subscription package using a sandbox test user, I don’t receive any App Store Server Notifications from the sandbox. However, when I use the “Request Test Notification” option in App Store Connect, the notification is received successfully. My sandbox server notification URL is configured correctly and publicly accessible. I also call finishTransaction() after purchase, and the receipt is verified successfully with the sandbox verification endpoint. To further debug, I used the getNotificationHistory API to fetch notifications for yesterday and today (Nov 3–4, 2025). Apple’s API response does not include any notifications or transaction IDs for my today’s purchases (Nov 4, 2025) — even though I can confirm from logs that those transactions were completed and verified successfully. It looks like sandbox purchase notifications are not being sent or logged, even though test notifications work fine. Could someone from Apple please confirm if there’s currently an issue with sandbox server notifications for auto-renewable subscriptions?

A purchase can result in success with verificationResult .unverified. Is there a list of reasons for which the transaction might be unverified and how should i handle it in my app? From my understanding, a successful unverified transaction means the user has already paid for the purchase. So, do i just ignore the unverified transaction or do i provide content to the user anyways?

the email say this notification type will be available to you in production beginning May 27, 2025, and you can test it in sandbox now. but i didn't receice this notification yet

I've been struggling to work with the Storekit framework and specifically to find the current Storefront used by the user of the app. Context : My app needs to behave differently depending on the country of the user. For me relying on Locale.current.region?.identifier does not seem very reliable, the user can change it really easily. I'm trying to use the Storekit framework like so : if let storefront = await StoreKit.Storefront.current{ return storefront.countryCode } As per Apple's Storekit documentation : Use current to determine a customer's current storefront region and offer in-app products suitable for that region. You maintain your own list of product identifiers and the storefronts in which you make them available. But I just can't find out what I need to change in my current configuration to get another country. The code keeps returning my original storefront (which is France) I've tried login in with a sandbox user defined on another country. Changed all settings on my device to another country. Changed my Apple's account region as described here. Also tried to logout from everything. The only thing that works is setting a local .storekit file as described here and changing the default storefront. Is Xcode overriding the default storefront when building on debug or TestFlight? does anyone know how can I test different storefronts with sandbox users without the local storekit file ? Thank you in advance.

Dear Apple Technical Support Team, We have encountered a potential issue related to transaction handling while using StoreKit v2, and would greatly appreciate your assistance in confirming the behavior or providing any relevant guidance. Issue Description: When calling Transaction.unfinished and listening to Transaction.updates on the client side, we noticed that some transactions—despite having already been processed and successfully completed with finish()—are being returned again upon the next app launch, which results in duplicate receipt uploads. Current Handling Flow: 1. Upon app launch: • Iterate over Transaction.unfinished to retrieve unfinished transactions; • Simultaneously listen for transaction changes via Transaction.updates (e.g., renewals, refunds); 2. For each verified transaction, we immediately call await transaction.finish(); 3. We then construct a transaction model, store it locally, and report it to our backend for receipt verification; 4. After the server successfully verifies the receipt, the client deletes the corresponding local record; 5. On every app launch, the client checks for any locally stored receipts that haven’t been uploaded, and re-uploads them if necessary. Key Code Snippets: private static func verifyReceipt(receiptResult: VerificationResult) -> Transaction? { switch receiptResult { case .unverified(_, _): return nil case .verified(let signedType): return signedType } } public static func handleUnfinishedTransactions(payConfig: YCStoreKitPayConfig, complete: ((YCStoreKitReceiptModel?) -> Void)?) { Task.detached { for await unfinishedResult in Transaction.unfinished { let transaction = YCStoreKitV2Manager.verifyReceipt(receiptResult: unfinishedResult) if let transaction { await transaction.finish() if transaction.revocationDate == nil { let receipt = YCStoreKitV2Manager.createStoreKitReceiptModel( transation: transaction, jwsString: unfinishedResult.jwsRepresentation, payConfig: payConfig, isRenew: false ) complete?(receipt) } } } } } private func observeTransactionUpdates() -> Task<Void, Never> { return Task { for await updateResult in Transaction.updates { let transaction = YCStoreKitV2Manager.verifyReceipt(receiptResult: updateResult) if let transaction { await transaction.finish() if transaction.revocationDate == nil { let receipt = YCStoreKitV2Manager.createStoreKitReceiptModel( transation: transaction, jwsString: updateResult.jwsRepresentation, payConfig: self.payConfig, isRenew: false ) self.callProgressChanged(.receiptPrepared, receiptModel: receipt, errorType: .none, error: nil) } } } } } Our Questions: 1. Is it possible for Transaction.unfinished or Transaction.updates to return transactions that have already been finished? Specifically, if a transaction was successfully finished in a previous app launch, could it still be returned again during the next launch? 2. Are there any flaws in our current handling process? Our current sequence is: finish() → construct model → local save → report to server → delete after verification. Could this order lead to timing issues where StoreKit considers a transaction unfinished? 3. If we need your assistance in investigating specific user transaction records or logs, what key information should we provide? We greatly appreciate your support and look forward to your response to help us further optimize our transaction processing logic.

We’re testing SKAN postbacks via AdAttributionKit but aren’t receiving any requests on our server even after generating development impressions and triggering a postback. Setup: Domain: https://linkrunner-skan.com Configured in Info.plist as: <key>NSAdvertisingAttributionReportEndpoint</key> <string>https://linkrunner-skan.com</string> <key>AttributionCopyEndpoint</key> <string>https://linkrunner-skan.com</string> Apple automatically appends the .well-known paths: /.well-known/private-click-measurement/report-attribution/ /.well-known/skadnetwork/report-attribution/ ATS diagnostics for the domain: PASS for all tests (TLS 1.0–1.3, PFS disabled, arbitrary loads allowed, etc.) Both .well-known paths are publicly accessible and return 200 OK Testing Flow: Enabled Developer → AdAttributionKit Developer Mode on iOS (15+) Followed Apple’s official guide: Testing AdAttributionKit with Developer Mode Generated test impression using: createAdAttributionKitDevelopmentImpression implemented in SKANManager.swift Called Postback.updateConversionValue with lockPostback: true Created Development Postback from Developer Settings Waited 30+ minutes while intercepting server requests (proxy + backend logs) What We’ve Tried So Far: Confirmed ATS compliance with nscurl --ats-diagnostics (all PASS) Verified .well-known paths are accessible publicly without redirects Tested endpoints manually with a POST request – server responds 200 OK Confirmed Info.plist entries exactly match Apple’s required keys Double-checked iOS device is running iOS 15+ with Developer Mode enabled Repeated test flow multiple times with fresh impressions and postbacks Waited up to 1 hour for postback (in case of delays) Issue: No POST requests are being received from Apple to either .well-known endpoint, even though the setup appears correct and ATS tests pass. References Used: Configuring an Advertised App Generating JWS Impressions Question: Has anyone faced a similar issue where AdAttributionKit Development Postbacks are not firing despite correct Info.plist setup, ATS compliance, and reachable .well-known endpoints? Any insight into possible missing configuration steps or testing nuances would be greatly appreciated.

Hi. If the app is in landscape only and when the SKStoreProductViewController is presented, the safeArea changes to what looks like a portrait mode safe area. When the SKStoreProductViewController is dismissed, the safeArea does NOT revert back to the original values. Is there a way to force the safeArea to "reset"? I've submitted some bug tickets through Apple Feedback but I haven't received any response about it. The below code will pop up the SKStoreProductViewController and if you have a UIView that is constrained to the safe area, then you can visibly notice that the safe area is changed and doesn't go back. I have tested this on iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 15, and iPhone 16 Pro and in the Simulators. The incorrect behavior happens on those and probably more. Thanks. #import "ViewController.h" #import &amp;lt;StoreKit/StoreKit.h&amp;gt; @interface ViewController () @property (nonatomic, strong) SKStoreProductViewController *productViewController; @end @implementation ViewController - (IBAction)buttonTapped:(id)sender { self.productViewController = [[SKStoreProductViewController alloc] init]; NSDictionary *parameters = @{ @"id" : @"6443575749" }; [self.productViewController loadProductWithParameters:parameters completionBlock:^(BOOL result, NSError * _Nullable error) { [self presentViewController:self.productViewController animated:YES completion:^{ // presented // The panel that is constraint to the safe area visibly shows that the safe area is no longer correct. }]; }]; } @end

Yesterday I noticed that if I purchase a free trial subscription in my app using a sandbox account, when the subscription expires I see a “Billing Problem” message every time I open the app. ”allow purchases &amp; renewals“ setting is ON so this shouldn’t happen. has anyone else seen this or knows how to resolve? observed on iOS 18.3.2 &amp; 16.7.10 thanks

We're experiencing an issue with in-app purchases in our React Native iOS app where RNIap.getProducts() is consistently returning an empty array, preventing users from making purchases. Technical Details: Using react-native-iap library Product ID: '[REDACTED]' Platform: iOS Product Type: Consumable (one-time payment, NOT subscription) Error in logs: "No products returned from App Store. Check App Store Connect." Debugging shows: Products Fetched: [] Steps to Reproduce: Open app and navigate to the quiz feature Attempt to purchase additional quiz attempts Modal opens but fails to load product information What We've Confirmed: IAP Connection initializes successfully No error is thrown during product fetch, just an empty array returned App is configured with correct Bundle ID Using Apple Sandbox test account We are implementing consumable purchases (one-time payments) Potential Issues to Investigate: Product configuration in App Store Connect Ensure product is set as "Consumable" type in App Store Connect Sandbox tester account permissions/activation Bundle ID matching between app and App Store Connect Product ID case sensitivity or typos

I am testing sandbox subscribe but I always recieve DID_FAIL_TO_RENEW I try to create new sandbox account and clear purchase history but not work can anyone help?

I'm working on a watchOS app that has an iOS counterpart. There will be a subscription required to unlock functionality and I would like the user to be able to make the purchase on either the iPhone or the watch and have both apps unlock. The first link below says that StoreKit 2's Transaction.currentEntitlements will not work in this case like it does with extensions. The second link says it might work but doesn't in the sandbox. What is the best way to make this work? Will it just work in the App Store? Should I use WCSession to send the purchase information from one platform to the other and store it in the keychain? Something else? Via https://www.revenuecat.com/blog/engineering/ios-in-app-subscription-tutorial-with-storekit-2-and-swift/ "Transaction.currentEntitlements can be used in extensions the same way it was used in the previous steps. This works for extensions like Widgets and Intents. However, an iOS app with a companion watchOS app will not work even though Transaction.currentEntitlements can be executed in it. A companion watch app does not stay updated with the same transaction history as its iOS app because they are separate platforms." Via https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/739963 "In TestFlight I was able to confirm that the Watch app and IOS app share in-app purchases. It seems the problems confirming this with Storekit and Sandbox are limits of the testing environments."

Testing recurring subscriptions in a new release in both development environment and in Test Flight, we see an increased percentage of failed calls returning from Apple server. The return failure message is that an unknown error occurred. The behavior is not consistent and most often we get a failure and another attempt succeeds. We do get around 50% failures which is alarming and cannot be explained to the end user. We have also experimented with previous test versions that are in production currently and we see the same behavior, so this is not isolated to the most recent release we plan nor to a specific application we have. Past testing in previous releases did not return such high percentage of failures from Apple server. Have you encountered such an issue? We have no idea what may cause Apple server to return with this "Unknown error" and there is no log we can consume from Apple subscription service. Appreciate your help on this.

New subscriptions have been failing to renew in the sandbox for 3 days. I am seeing multiple posts and comments from people that appear to be experiencing the same issue. But I haven't seen any feedback from Apple representatives. I really do not want to launch a new app without seeing functioning renewals in the sandbox. Is there somewhere else we are intended to seek assistance?

The majority of our sandbox calls to verifyReceipt end in an ETIMEDOUT error. This is making it very difficult to verify our purchase flow for our pending release. We have not yet migrated to StoreKit 2 and still rely on this API endpoint. The Apple API status page reports no issues. Is anyone else encountering this?

Since January 28, 2026, we’ve noticed an increase in StoreKit-related errors during purchase flows. Specifically, we’re seeing a spike in errors reported as “Unable to Complete Request”, categorized as unknown StoreKit errors. This correlates with a noticeable drop in the overall purchase success rate. A few observations: The issue is not limited to the latest app version, it also affects older versions. It appears to occur only on iOS 17+. The impact seems country-specific: some regions are affected more heavily, while others show no significant change compared to previous days. At the moment, there are no related incidents reported on Apple’s System Status page. Given these symptoms, this looks like a potential StoreKit / Apple API issue, but we haven’t found any official confirmation yet. Has anyone else observed similar StoreKit behavior recently on iOS 17+? Any insights or known issues would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, Currently, instead of using a real device and test account for in-app purchase testing, we are using Products.storekit with the Simulator. Our app offers a subscription plan with a 3-day free trial. We would like to simulate the following test scenarios: User cancels the subscription within the 3-day free trial period. User cancels the subscription after the 3-day free trial period. However, in Xcode, under Debug > StoreKit > Manage Transactions..., we couldn’t find an option to simulate a subscription cancellation. There is an option to refund the purchase, but we believe this is not the same as a cancellation. Do you have any idea how we can simulate these two cases using Products.storekit and the Simulator? Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone, I really need help. My app versions keep getting approved for distribution and my subscriptions and business agreements are all approved. Yet, when the paywall in my app appears, and someone clicks the subscribe button to pay, the IAP isn't appearing. It just loads forever. When I tested in Xcode it just kept saying products not found. Id's are the same, bundle id is the same, ive done everything. Can someone help pls.

We’ve recently encountered an increased rate of purchase errors StoreKit.InvalidRequestError error 1 (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/invalidrequesterror) specifically on iOS 18.4. We suspect this might be related to the new Advanced Commerce API introduced by Apple, although we haven’t made any changes related to this API in our app. Have you experienced similar issues since the release of iOS 18.4 or when integrating the Advanced Commerce API? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
