In App Store Connect, I can't change "Subscription Group Display Name" . I get the error message "There was an error editing your App Store localization. Please try again later." It doesn't change even after waiting a while. Why does this error occur? I would appreciate it if you could tell me what to do.

Our in-app purchase’s 'App Store Localization' status shows as rejected, but no specific reason was provided. Could anyone advise on how to resolve this or where to find detailed rejection feedback?

So I just managed to build one app for personal use that I want to use daily in my iphone. However, once installed in my device through XCode, after one week the application is no longer available. I'm aware about the one week trial for free users and one year for a paid account, but... for real? Isn't there an alternative? And if not... does it means that in order to use my app for let's say 5 years I will have to pay 500$? Is just a bit crazy to think about it but I did look on the internet and did not found a clear information about how this works. Thank you in advance :)

my app state is pending developer release. but my ipa is waiting for review. will be great if any one coluld help me in this issue. my app name : QaffPlus app id : 6748287808

I’m implementing App Store subscriptions using StoreKit 2 and testing in the Sandbox environment. Until about a week ago everything worked fine, but recently the Settings > Subscriptions screen shows this message for my test account: “Your current payment method is not available.” The behavior: • Using a Sandbox tester account (not a production Apple ID) • Purchase flow works successfully — the transaction completes, and I receive server notifications • However, the system Settings app still displays that message under the subscription entry • No code changes were made since it last worked Questions: 1. What exactly does this message mean in the Sandbox environment? 2. Could this be related to any Apple system issue or recent backend update? 3. Has anyone else seen the same behavior in recent days? Environment: • Xcode 15.4 • iOS 17.5 (physical device) • StoreKit 2 / Swift 5.10 • Sandbox tester (Japan region) Thanks in advance for any insights or confirmations from others who are testing subscriptions in Sandbox!

Hi everyone, I’m facing an issue where StoreKit is returning 0 products from the App Store, even though my auto-renewable subscriptions are approved in App Store Connect. When calling queryProductDetails using Flutter’s in_app_purchase package (which uses StoreKit under the hood), StoreKit reports success but returns an empty list. The logs show the following error: IAPError(code: storekit_no_response, source: app_store, message: "StoreKit: Failed to get response from platform.") InAppPurchase.isAvailable() returns true, but no product details are received. Already verified: • Subscriptions are approved in App Store Connect • Product identifiers in the app match those in App Store Connect exactly • In-App Purchase capability is enabled in Xcode • Paid Applications Agreement, banking, and tax details are active and complete • Using the latest version of the Flutter in_app_purchase package StoreKit should normally return the list of available products in the production environment, but it consistently returns an empty array along with the “storekit_no_response” error. Has anyone else encountered this issue or found any potential causes for StoreKit failing to return products in the production environment? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hey! We're implementing In-App Purchase Subscriptions and we were able to receive "App Store Server Notifications" on our "Sandbox Server URL". But the last event we received 22 hours ago. We are able to verify transactions and finish them, but receive no webhooks. We changed nothing on our server or its configurations but the notifications stoped to come. We consulted the API (https://api.storekit-sandbox.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v1/notifications/history) and it says the same as we see - the last event was 22hrs ago. I checked all the advices from here as well (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/805806?answerId=864483022#864483022). Is there any Status page for the Store Kit Sandbox services? Was there any outage? Sincerely, Konstantin

have successfully created subscription with all metaData: Localization(inside subscription and also for subscription group), logo, description and also screenshots but subscription shows missing metadata instead of ready to submit causing flutter app package inAppPurchase to not found the subscription id or product it. Flutter code level : Future<void> _loadSubscriptions() async { Set<String> kSubscriptionIds = {'monthly_689'}; ProductDetailsResponse response = await _inAppPurchase.queryProductDetails(kSubscriptionIds); if (response.notFoundIDs.isNotEmpty) { kLog("Subscription IDs not found: ${response.notFoundIDs}"); } print("God it works seriously"); print(response.notFoundIDs); print(response.productDetails); print(response.error); subscriptions.value = response.productDetails; } Says: Subscription IDs not found is been logged I try with storekit it works!!! but as apple asking me we test on sandbox environment and it's not working I also created sandbox account login with same credentials and test it not works. Point is package I used in flutter not finding the above product_id I successfully added subscription group, localization, image and all still why my subscription not found ?

Hey, is it possible to test with an Xcode test build if the subscription notifications are correctly being sent to the backend? Currently nothing appears on my backend after subscribing. For some reason i can also subscribe multiple times to the same product. It looks like nothing is being saved anywhere which is why I also can't cancel a test subscription. All of this was fairly easy and possible when setting up the google play version of our app.

Hi everyone, I’m currently stuck in a review loop related to in-app subscriptions and would really appreciate some advice. Here’s what’s happening: My app uses Apple’s in-app subscription system (auto-renewable). When I submit the app, it gets rejected because there are no active/approved subscription plans available for purchase. But the subscription plans themselves are also rejected or kept under review because the app isn’t approved yet. So I’m in a loop where: The app approval depends on the subscription approval, and the subscription approval depends on the app approval. I’ve been stuck in this situation for about a month now, and I can’t move forward. Here’s what I’ve tried so far: Displayed a message on the subscriptions screen saying that “No plans are available right now.” Displayed the plans as UI only, and when users try to subscribe, it shows a message like “Plans are currently under review, please try again later.” Despite these attempts, the app still gets rejected with the same reason — that the in-app purchases are not available or not functioning properly. My question is: How can I break out of this loop? 1-Hide all subscription plans until approval? 2-Allow users to access a plan for free (without using Apple’s in-app purchases)? 3-Or take some other action? Thanks in advance!

We got Advanced Commerce API and the generic product identifiers approved. When I was try to migrate a sandbox subscription to ACA enabled subscription I hit an error Request payload (Hid some info but the requestReferenceId is the real) { "descriptors": { "description": "Migrated", "displayName": "Migration" }, "items": [ { "sku": "product_1mo_999", "description": "description", "displayName": "Product" } ], "requestInfo": { "requestReferenceId": "3b0b8e67-d8a0-45f4-8f6d-06bffa9a2c08" }, "storefront": "USA", "targetProductId": "com.company.generic.subscription", "taxCode": "C003-00-1" } Response { "errorCode": 5000000, "errorMessage": "An unknown error occurred." }

Hi, Our organization is planning to build an MDM tool and for that we are in need of an MDM vendor certificate for ourselves. We have already enrolled in Apple Developer Program but still didn't see the MDM CSR option in apple developer portal. Did anyone get the CSR option in your developer portal after enrolling in Apple Developer Program? Please share the steps to enable that option in my developer portal. Or Do we need any other license for availing MDM CSR option ? Any insights on this is much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, I can't get into "manage" sandbox account. I either get to a screen to put my password in. Here there is no way to click "next" or "login". (I have tried pressing "enter" on my keyboard to no effect). Or I get directly into "Cannot Connect" page. I have tried this two days in a row. I have tried turning it off and on again. I have tried logging out and in. Device: iPhone 13 pro max, iOS: 16.0.3 (also tried the version before this)

I’m reaching out regarding our existing in-app subscription implementation that currently uses App Store Server Notifications version 1 (v1). Our live application has a significant number of active recurring subscriptions that are being managed through the v1 webhook integration. We have now developed a revamped version of our application, which uses the same Apple Developer Account and App Store Connect setup, but in this new app version, we’ve implemented App Store Server Notifications version 2 (v2). Before moving forward with the migration, I would like to clarify the following points to ensure a smooth transition and avoid any disruptions to ongoing subscriptions: Backward Compatibility: Will existing active subscriptions (originally created and managed via v1 notifications) continue to work seamlessly once we switch to v2, or do we need to maintain both v1 and v2 endpoints during the transition? Notification Delivery: If both webhook versions are configured simultaneously, will Apple send notifications to both endpoints, or only the one currently configured in App Store Connect? Migration Strategy: What is Apple’s recommended best practice for migrating from v1 to v2 in a scenario where the live app still has active subscriptions tied to the v1 webhook? Potential Risks or Considerations: Are there any known limitations, delays, or issues that we should prepare for during this migration (for example, differences in payload structure or event types between v1 and v2 that could affect subscription lifecycle management)? I would greatly appreciate your guidance or documentation links that outline the correct migration steps and recommended approach for ensuring continuity of service for all existing subscribers.

Hi, I just having an issue with Revenue Cat paywall and react native purchases library when app is downloaded from TestFlight. All my subscriptions are in ready for submit state and most likely should be available in sandbox TestFlight but in fact revenue cat sends error about no products are available in App Store Connect (Revenue Cat configured properly, and i event imported froducts from App Store) Also, locally, with StoreKit product sync everything working properly Tried different accounts like sandbox and live - still the same error Can anyone help with this?

Apple review says , my app displayed an error when we attempted to purchase subscriptions. Please review the details and resources below and complete the next steps. Device type: iPad Air (5th generation) OS version: iPadOS 26.0.1 Next Steps When validating receipts on your server, your server needs to be able to handle a production-signed app getting its receipts from Apple’s test environment. The recommended approach is for your production server to always validate receipts against the production App Store first. If validation fails with the error code "Sandbox receipt used in production," you should validate against the test environment instead. Question: Is it due to Device being used by reviewer or is it really from my code. As my code relies on Apple infrastructure for purchases and all things. Initially i did had subscription reporting api for receipt handling and all.When i went through with ChatGPT it did say that issue is due to half baked subscription module on my server. So i decided not to send any Subscription related things to backend, now it's Apple only and on App side. Is it correct fix ? Or do i need to fix backend even though i have no use for it ? My team did test in sandbox env via internal testing that time we had no issues. And all was tested using Mobile devices, that's why i still have question just to be sure these errors are due to devices or not? Screenshot shared by Apple team did show they got a error popup saying Something went wrong : Unable to complete request. I am trying to reproduce in development but can't. Anyone had got same issue before and has information on how to resolve and test for it will be helpful. Thanks Shikhar Sahu

Hello everyone, I want to remove subscriptions from review to publish my app without any subscriptions. But I'm unable to do so - they are stuck in "in review" status and I can't change it. What should I do?

You can still renew your membership within the next 8 days and your apps will remain available on the App Store during this time. Open the Apple Developer app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Sign in to your account, tap/click Renew, and follow the prompts. I'm getting this message but renew button is not visible in Developer App or on website. How to to renew?

Hello everyone, There's an issue that has been driving me and my team mad for almost a month. Our subscriptions work properly in a sandbox mode, when we're testing on our own devices. However, every time we send them to review, we receive a rejection - apparently, the subscriptions don't work at all for the reviewers. I'm pretty confident that we set up everything properly in App Store Connect as it's not our first time. We sent the subscriptions to review as well and they're now stuck in the "in review" state, even though the app submission itself gets rejected over and over. I'm unsure what to do here because we've been going back and forth with this for several weeks, and I don't know how to debug it given that everything works properly on our side. We had a call with an Apple representative and he advised to create a topic here. I'm attaching two screenshots - one from our sandbox testing, the other from the App Reviewers team rejection. I'm hoping that your answers can shed a light on what's going on here and how we can fix it. Thanks!
