For years I've been using Receigen for receipt verification for the Mac App Store build of my application. However, with the deprecation of exit code 173, I am moving to StoreKit-based verification and have a couple of questions.
I have followed the instructions from https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/apptransaction/shared and have something like this (simplified):
Swift:
@objc class ValidateReceipt: NSObject {
@objc func validate() async -> Bool {
do {
let verificationResult = try await AppTransaction.shared
switch verificationResult {
case .verified(_ /*let appTransaction*/):
// StoreKit verified that the user purchased this app and
// the properties in the AppTransaction instance
return true;
default:
// The app transaction didn't pass StoreKit's verification
return false;
}
}
catch {
// Handle errors
return false;
}
}
}
Objective-C:
ValidateReceipt *validateReceipt = [[ValidateReceipt alloc] init];
[validateReceipt validateWithCompletionHandler:^(BOOL result) {
if (result)
{
// Successful app purchase validation
}
else
{
// App purchase validation failure
}
}];
Thing is, I always get a valid result, i.e., in ValidReceipt.validate(), the case .verified block always runs. Even when exporting a new release build of my app and running it (without any _MASReceipt).
When using exit code 173, an .app without a _MASReceipt would prompt for app store login. Nothing of the sort happens now.
Am I misunderstanding the documentation / doing something wrong / missing something obvious?
