I tried to get this post into the StoreKit forum because this issue is relative to In-App Purchases. My App has In-App Purchases, which work, no issues here. My App has been on the App Store for a number of years, with changes along the way. Recently, I uploaded V5.1 (Lottery Snitch) for review and the reviewer found something that had eluded everyone, until now. Since my App has In-App Purchases, of course I have Restore In-App Purchases as a User selectable function, on the menu at the top. The reviewer reported my App as crashing when this option was selected, which was a new thing since my App has been functioning for years. Skipping the next several communications and moving on to the most current findings.. If my App is put onto a Mac, iMac.. Where the User has never used my app before (this eliminates leftover data files), if the User then logs out of their Apple ID prior to running my app, starts my app, selects Restore In-App Purchases the User is then presented with Apple's Request to Log-In (this has nothing to do with me..not my code..it is all 100% Apple Login request). Now, completely ignore the request for login, allow my App to complete its wait period, the User can execute any task they wish. The App runs just fine. As soon as the User selects 'Cancel' on the Apple ID login pop-up screen, my App crashes. The Apple Login request is triggered by the restoreCompletedtransactions function for the StoreKit. The crash report indicates the DispatchQueue was the code running at the time. Thing is, my code has no DispatchQueue running. When the wait-timer completes (obvious on-screen loop) my code has zero Dispatch's running. When my code called the restoreCompletedTransactions it was not inside a Dispatch of my creation. Anyone see this before? Anyone have a suggestion how to make this stop? FYI, go ahead and login to your Apple ID when prompted and everything completes just fine. Yes, this problem exists in the current version(V5.0) available for download on the AppStore. It would take another post just as long to explain how this slid by on Development machines, just as weird. What to do? (JSYK:The App does not crash during development when running inside Xcode)

Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1005 "The network connection was lost Getting this error with: SKPaymentQueue.default().restoreCompletedTransactions() Implemented: func paymentQueue(_ queue: SKPaymentQueue, restoreCompletedTransactionsFailedWithError error: any Error) { <#code#> } Error returned is the 1005 error I listed above. The laptop works fine, it is connected to the internet just fine. The problem is connecting to the AppStore Simulator when the project target is intended for the Mac. I have an iOS project for this product and I do NOT get this problem with the transaction observer when the project target is iOS (iPhone, iPad). This problem only occurs on the M1 Laptop and the target is MacOS.

Hi. I would like my App to be notified when the phone rings. No, not CallKit-CallKit is for VoIP and does not cover Cellular connections (as of 2/26/24) but, thanks. To continue.. I understand ages-ago there was a Telephony Kit or Framework but, has been discontinued. Has it been replaced with something else? I would like something that seems very simple:a) when the phone rings my App is notified, b) when it stops ringing (combine all possibilities; sent to voicemail, user cancels, user answers) my App is notified. Yes, I understand UserNotifications can make things run but, as I understand it this feature is for the App to schedule notifications, not receive them? If you know of something in UserNotifications that I can leverage I would appreciate your input. Lacking other possibilities I find myself wondering about Siri integration. Siri is notified about system events and generates notifications based upon these events. Is there some way to place my App downstream from Siri and receive system notifications? Thanks everyone.
