Hi! I’m new in programming apps for Apple Store and I’m creating my first app. I already send my for review but I get an answer of problems with the subs flow. If there’s anyone who can help me fix this problem and implement my subscriptions in my app and test it out I would be thankful, I want the flow work like in the image!

In Xcode's StoreKit transaction manager (Debug > StoreKit > Manage Transactions), how can I delete old apps that I do not need anymore from the list of apps?

We’re encountering a problem with StoreKit in the sandbox environment. During an SKProductsRequest, some or all of the product identifiers provided are being returned in the invalidProductIdentifiers array of the SKProductsResponse, despite being valid and already approved. This behavior began occurring since last 2 days only and appears to be intermittent—in some cases, a product identifier that initially fails will succeed after one or two retries, without any changes on our end. What we've verified: All product identifiers are correctly configured and approved in App Store Connect. No recent changes have been made to our product configuration. The same product identifiers have previously worked without issue. We would appreciate any assistance in identifying the root cause of this behavior. Please also let us know if there is a known issue currently affecting StoreKit sandbox services. Thank you for your support.

Looking for assistance in managing subscription upgrades for TestFlight users. I have a few monthly subscriptions, 30days, each with a different set of available features, 1 with all, and 1 with fewer. (All are in proper order and grouped in App Store connection subscriptions) subscribing seems to be working fine, and purchasing an upgrade is going ok. what is not: reflecting the upgraded plan in app (currently reflects it will start in 30days when current subscription expires) I’m lead to believe this will be resolved with a live app in App Store, that will then handle prorating, terminate the old plan and immediately start the new one. looking for help getting TestFlight to show immediate upgrades.

I'm trying to test my IAP in sandbox to ensure that it's functioning, but a few hours ago, I started getting the message, "Unable to process your request. Please try again later" in sandbox. Is anyone else getting this error? Below is the error in the console: Purchase did not return a transaction: Error Domain=SKServerErrorDomain Code=0 "(null)" UserInfo={developerErrorMessage=An unknown error occurred., developerErrorCode=5000000} Note: My App ID and Product ID are correct, the IAP is live on the App Store, and the product is recognized in sandbox. I'm trying to push an update tonight, but won't be able to unless this is resolved.

We are experiencing a critical issue where StoreKit 2 is returning empty products when using Product.products(for:), specifically on devices running iOS 18.4.

 This issue does not occur on iOS 18.3 or earlier.

 Steps:

 Created a subscription product (e.g. "upm1") in App Store Connect
 Confirmed the product is active, localised, and part of a valid subscription group
 Call the following Swift code using StoreKit 2:
 Task { do { let products = try await Product.products(for: ["upm1"]) print(products) } catch { print("Error: (error)") } } 4. Result: products is an empty list.

 This regression is blocking subscription testing on iOS 18.4. 

 Kindly someone please advise on a potential fix or workaround.

Hi, thanks for reading my question. I need help with some odd behaviour with product.purchase() not triggering a confirmation dialog after a subscription has expired and trying to purchase it again. Seeing this in iOS 16.2 and 15.7.2 (haven't tried any other versions) on actual devices, not in simulator. I'm using a sandbox user on the sandbox environment (not using the local store kit config file testing option). Using a newly created sandbox user, first subscription purchase goes through just fine, dialog box pops up, login with sandbox user, get confirmation of purchase and then Transaction.currentEntitlements has one item as expected. It auto renews for 12 times (each time Transaction.currentEntitlements contains the correct results) and then expires, as expected for sandbox. Transaction.currentEntitlements is then also empty, as expected. All good so far. Now I want to test purchasing it again...Call product.purchase() again to renew/start a new subscription and nothing happens, no confirm purchase dialog box pops up at all. The purchase function simply exits BUT returns success (as in the following gets called) but in self.updatePurchasedProducts(), Transaction.currentEntitlements is empty. case let .success(.verified(transaction)):      // Successful purchase       await transaction.finish()      await self.updatePurchasedProducts() if I instead go to Settings->App Store->Sandbox User-> Manage Subscriptions and renew the subscription there, instead of in my app, then Transaction.currentEntitlements has a new entry and all is good again. Alternatively, if I create yet another new sandbox user and logout of the old one I was using, I am once again able to purchase from within the app, so .purchase() once again works as normal. Is there something I am missing about expired subscriptions and trying to purchase them again in the app? Is this a sandbox issue and in production I'll have no problem? The sandbox user has purchasing enabled in Settings->App Store. I've also tried calling AppStore.sync() (which is in my "Restore Purchase" button) before calling product.purchase() after the subscription stops renewing, expires and this issue comes up, doesn't resolve it. Also have a less important question, the initial call to product.purchase(), the one that works as expected, has a bit of a delay before the confirmation dialog pops up, a few seconds, which will probably result in the user clicking the buy button again thinking it didn't work. Is a bit of a delay normal for sandbox? Will it be ok in production? When it fails, and I have to renew in Settings->AppStore->Sandbox user, there's also a bit of a delay after I return to my app, 5-15 or so seconds, before the transaction observer fires and currentEntitlements is checked again, is there a way to reduce this delay? Thank you! Colin @MainActor class IAPManager: NSObject, ObservableObject {  // removed other functions.....   func purchase(_ product: Product) async throws {    let result = try await product.purchase()     switch result {    case let .success(.verified(transaction)):      // Successful purchase       await transaction.finish()      await self.updatePurchasedProducts()    case let .success(.unverified(_, error)):       break     case .pending:       break     case .userCancelled:       break     @unknown default:       break   } }  func updatePurchasedProducts() async {     for await result in Transaction.currentEntitlements {       guard case .verified(let transaction) = result else {         continue       }       if transaction.revocationDate == nil {         self.purchasedProductIDs.insert(transaction.productID)       } else {         self.purchasedProductIDs.remove(transaction.productID)       }     }   } }

Hi everyone, I’m using StoreKit 2 with .storeButton(.visible, for: .policies) inside my SubscriptionStoreView. The buttons appear correctly, but when tapped, a sheet opens that says “Terms of Service Unavailable” or “Something went wrong. Try again.” I’ve already added the required URLs (Privacy Policy and Terms of Use) in App Store Connect under App Information, but they still don’t show in the sheet. Does anyone know how this is supposed to work? • Are the URLs pulled directly from App Store Connect? • Do they only appear correctly in production? • Or do we need to manually set them in code for testing/TestFlight? Any insight would be greatly appreciated — just want to make sure everything is in place before submitting for review. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I’m facing a recurring issue with my macOS app being rejected during App Store review, and I’d really appreciate any guidance. The subscription flow in my app is implemented using StoreKit, and everything works perfectly in our development environment using a StoreKit configuration file. It also behaves as expected in Sandbox testing and TestFlight — I even had few beta testers confirm that the subscription information is displayed correctly and the purchase flow completes without issues. All required subscription details are configured in App Store Connect: • Subscription duration and the description of the services offered • Price and price per unit where applicable • Paid apps agreement and related forms are correctly filled However, when the app is submitted for review, the subscription screen fails to display the expected information. From what I can tell, the product information fails to load from the App Store in the review environment — even though everything is working fine on our side. We’ve already submitted a video to Apple showing the subscription UI working in the Sandbox environment, but the app continues to be rejected under guideline 3.1.2 due to missing subscription info in the binary. Is anyone else experiencing similar behavior during review? Could there be a caching issue or delay in StoreKit syncing for newly configured products? Any help or suggestions are very welcome. Thanks in advance!

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!

Hi everyone, I’ve been struggling for days to get my in-app subscriptions approved, and I could really use some clarity or guidance from other developers or Apple engineers. Everything works fine in development (debug builds with sandbox). The issue starts when testing via TestFlight or during App Store Review. When Apple reviewers attempt to subscribe, my backend returns: "transaction id not found" As a result, I keep getting rejected under Guideline 2.1 (App Completeness) with this note: “When tapped to make the purchase, an error still appeared... your server needs to handle a production-signed app getting receipts from Apple’s test environment...”

Three main questions: How do I know I'm using my sandbox account in my app because when signing in, it only shows my normal apple account? How do I make sure I configured my subscriptions correctly in app store connect? How do I test without local storekit configs? Some context: I created a paywall (using a 3rd party service, superwall) for my app and everything seems to work when using local storekit configs. I submitted for review and the reviewer is having problems with purchasing because my paywall can't find the product I set up in app store connect. I have been trying to debug. I set up a sandbox tester account and can confirm that I am logged in my phone's developer settings. But when I log in my app, the sign in with apple pop up only gives the choice to sign in with my apple ID. Is this normal? Does apple just treat these accounts the same? Also, I can't seem to pull subscription info from app store connect when creating a synced storekit config. I created a new subscription in app store connect, so now I have two, a test and a weekly one. When I create a local storekit config and sync from the appstore, only my test one shows. For context, the weekly subscription shows up as "waiting for review" while test shows up as "ready to submit". Idk if that makes a difference. I highly suspect I misconfigured something with my in app subscriptions. I'm trying to replace superwall with my own built in paywall. But I can't seem to pull any product from the app store unless I use a storekit config, but even then, my weekly one doesn't show up. Plz help.

I have an app that unlocks content based on in-app purchases, both one-time payments and subscriptions. Recently, I added new subscription products, both for distribution in App Store Connect and in the configuration file in XCode to be able to test it, declaring it in the scheme. Since the beginning of development, I have had issues with subscriptions. Every time I close the app and reopen it, in order for the app to recover which subscription is active, I have to run the purchase function. This doesn’t happen with purchases or in the production environment, where it works fine. I’ve now implemented SubscriptionStoreView, so I don’t depend on my business logic, in case I’m doing something wrong in the code. This view never remembers which product I’ve already purchased. Currently, in a version deployed to my phone from XCode, it doesn't even process the payment. On macOS, the experience is even worse. On iPad, through TestFlight, I haven’t even been able to test payments at all.

I have an app which is already on App Store with In-app purchase. Now I want to integrate In-app purchase in my another app for the same products as in the existing app. Both the apps are using same Apple Account. Can I reuse those Product Ids from the first app in the second one. If yes, what is the ways to use them. Thank you in advance.

Upon updating to Xcode 16.3, my StoreKit2 unit testing suite encountered a malfunction. let result = await product.purchase() The code snippet above simply halts execution, preventing the task from progressing. In a regular environment, everything appear to function correctly.

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.

We are experiencing an Unknown Error (error code 0) when testing purchases in the Apple Sandbox environment. The error does not occur every time, but it fails with an Unknown Error in approximately 8 out of 20 attempts. Due to this issue, our app is failing to pass Apple’s review. Issue Details This issue only occurs in the Apple Sandbox environment. After attempting a purchase, the Apple payment API returns SKPaymentTransaction Unknown Error. Returned error code: SKErrorUnknown (error.code 0). This problem is preventing us from conducting proper payment tests and getting approval from Apple. Would it be possible to receive support or any solutions for this issue?

This is a copy of a reply to this post. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/722222?page=1 I'm posting as new in the hope someone might have more up-to-date information, as I'm pulling out what little hair I have left. I'm using Storekit 2, testing in Xcode with a local Storekit config file. I have created a very minimal system to investigate this issue. I have a SwiftUI-based window using SubscriptionStoreView, and my app set up with the usual listener. I have four types of auto renewing subscription, configured in the local Storekit config file. With my app running, I subscribe to the lowest-level subscription I offer, via the SubscriptionStoreView. Notification of the inital purchase arrives, but subsequent auto-renewals do not trigger any action in my listener for Transaction.updates. They arrive as expected in the Transaction Manager. Radio silence in my listener. If I upgrade one subscription (via my SubscriptionStoreView) I see this reflected in the UI immediately, and also in the Transaction Manager, but the update that arrives in Transaction.updates refers to the old subscription, and has the isUpgraded flag set to false. Also, can anyone remind me what the grey warning triangle next to entries in the Transaction Manager means. I'm assuming it means unfinished, as that's what the sidebar indicates. Can the testing system really be this broken, or am I wildly off the mark? Unless I'm doing something fundamentally wrong this all seems extremely flakey, but happy to be proved wrong. I find this all rather unsettling if I can't test reliably, and am concerned that I my app may end up in this situation if I use storekit 2: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73530849/storekit-renewal-transactions-missing-in-transaction-all-or-transaction-updates

Hi, I have a problem with StoreKit regarding in-app subscription purchases. When I upload the app to TestFlight and during the review process, it doesn’t work on a real device. However, it works fine on the simulator. I get the error: "Subscription unavailable" (see image). Does anyone know what might be causing this and how to fix it? Please help!

We are in the process of implementing promotional offers for auto-renewable subscriptions in our app using StoreKit 2. For testing, we use a sandbox user alongside a new user on our platform. I can successfully purchase an Introductory Offer through the app. Once the user is eligible for a Promotional Offer (based on a previous purchase), we retrieve the Promotional Offer identifier and signature from our backend and display the offer. After initiating the purchase and having the user enter their Sandbox password, the transaction is added to the Payment Queue. However, it fails with the following error: Purchase failed error: invalidOfferSignature Additionally, the error returned is: "Purchase did not return a transaction: Error Domain=ASDServerErrorDomain Code=3903 "Unable to Purchase" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Unable to Purchase, client-environment-type=Sandbox, AMSServerErrorCode=3903, storefront-country-code=IND}" We are using StoreKit 2 APIs for this process. Has anyone encountered this issue when working with StoreKit 2, or found a solution to resolve it?
