SKAdNetwork 3.0 postbacks are not being delivered.
Hi To test SkAdNetwork, I installed the profile from the documentation (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/testing-ad-attributions-with-a-downloaded-profile) on my ios device. and turned off and on Allow Apps to Request to Track to change the idfa value. In this state, I installed the app (bundle id: id436731843) using SKAdNetwork with the following values at April 8th AM 01 (UTC) SkAdnetwork version: 3.0 fidelity fidelity=0, nonce=b3346a51-f7b5-42a2-a508-775a62317c83, timestamp=1744076349671, signature=... fidelity=1, nonce=b3346a51-f7b5-42a2-a508-775a62317c83, timestamp=1744076349672, signature=... itunesitem=436731843 network=87u5trcl3r.skadnetwork sourceapp=1220307907 I was hoping to get a postback after , but after a day, the postback is still not delivered. Any idea why the postback is not delivered? Thank you

Can I ask user to share his/her email id while doing
We sell magazines through a third party app platform called Pocketmags and our website. The magazines have Print, Digital and Combo options available for purchase. Also, this third party app provides the platform to read the digital version of the magazines. Once a user buys a subscription on the website, he/she receives the email with the login information on PocketMags, where he registers his login details and can start reading his subscription. With us, the customer shares his billing/shipping address along with their email id while they make payment. Now we have our own app where through which we want to sell these magazines and have to integrate In-App purchase for selling these digital subscriptions. How do we send the 3rd party subscription access details on email to the user if they do in app purchase?

It is always false. Does anyone knows why or how to get an SKStoreProductViewController to return shouldAutorotate YES?

StoreKit 2 AppTransaction failing
We have had a small number of users of our mac app complaining that the app suddenly can't detect their subscription or previous purchase history. These users are not new, and have been using the app successfully for some time. In the app we do this using the following (very standard) code at app startup: let result: VerificationResult<AppTransaction> = try await AppTransaction.shared For those users experiencing the failure, the result is coming back as unverified. So far we've been unable to find the cause or a solution, but it seems to have become worse with the release of macOS 15.4. We've tried resetting, rebooting and reinstalling the app. It's worth adding the (probably obvious) that it's impossible to test or fault-find with this, because we can't replicate the issue in a development environment. Any suggestions gratefully received.

The Apple Pay interface is not responding
My server's access to Apple's payment interface (buy. itunes. apple. com/verifiyReceipt) has been unresponsive since the end of March, and I have been searching for a long time without finding any issues. Normally, even if the data is incorrect, there is still a {"status": 21000} response. We are using Alibaba Cloud's virtual servers here. I don't know if Apple has made any adjustments to the interface. If anyone has encountered this problem, please kindly help to answer it. Thank you all.

How to Simulate Subscription Cancellation with Products.storekit in Simulator?
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!

Reporting to External Purchase Server API when using alternative PSP in the EU
Dear community, Context My company operates in the European Union, where not so long ago there appeared the possibility to accept an ["Alternative Terms Addendum for Apps in the EU"] (https://developer.apple.com/contact/request/download/alternate_eu_terms_addendum.pdf), which, among others, gives us the possibility to use an alternative payment provider, other than Apple's In App Purchase PSP system (ref: Apple docs). My company did accept it and was granted the StoreKit External Purchase Entitlement (com.apple.developer.storekit.external-purchase) entitlement, with which we integrated a different PSP, so now we want to incorporate the reporting to Apple's External Purchase Server API. We are currently integrating with the External Purchase Server API and have encountered a couple of issues I would appreciate clarification on: Question 1 Is there a way to retrieve an overview or summary of the current subscription states on Apple’s servers as a result of the submitted reports to External Purchase Server API? Specifically, I would like to verify the expected outcomes before the monthly invoice is issued by Apple and to understand the subscription states for the test users I used during this process and for future reference as well. Question 2 In one scenario, I initiated a one-year subscription, and in the middle of its period, I submitted a RENEWAL for one month with a higher price. I expected the request to fail due to overlapping periods and/or pricing conflicts, but both submissions were accepted without error. Do you have an idea about: What happens at the end of the renewed month? Will the subscription continue with the renewed (higher) amount, revert to the original (lower) annual rate, or be canceled? Where can I view the final state and billing plan for that subscription? Thank you for your assistance, we are looking forward for any kind of help or information regarding this topic.

InvalidRequestError on iOS 18.4
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!

Invalid currency symbol
Strange issue with currency display in subscription products Hi everyone, I'm facing a strange issue in my app where I use a subscription-based in-app purchase model. The products I created in App Store Connect are all in "Approved" status. I've tested with both RevenueCat and StoreKit, but the result is the same. Here are the products being loaded: Product loaded: weekly_product_id Display name: Weekly Pro Description: Weekly Pro Subscription Price: ₺229,99 Product loaded: annual_product_id Display name: Annual Pro Description: Annual Pro Subscription Price: ₺1.799,99 Even though I can see the correct prices and currency (Turkish Lira) in the Xcode debug console, on my real device the currency appears as Philippine Peso, as shown in the attached screenshot. Interestingly, in the iOS simulator, it's displayed in USD. I've double-checked and my device's region settings are set to Turkey. Any ideas on what could be causing this? And more importantly, how can I fix it? Thanks in advance!

StoreKit Subscription Fails to Load During App Review, Works in Sandbox/TestFlight
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!

Wrong Product.displayPrice?
I am using StoreKit 2 for my products and noticed that users from Ukraine (for example) receive a wrong Product.displayPrice. The App Store works with USD but shows the local currency UAH. Any chance to display the correct currency (USD)?

Error setting install attribution pingback
Hi there, We have an app targeted for children and we want to use the SkAdNetwork to track installs for campaigns. We don't want to track further in-app events (purchase etc.), just the install event. We added the SDK to our Unity app, listed the network identifiers in the plist file, configured the external campaign according to their instructions, but struggle to see any events for several weeks now. We see the following logs in the app: Registering install attribution pingback. Failed to migrate Install Attribution database schema from 17001 => 17400. SkAdNetwork: No pingbacks found while attempting to register/update. Error setting install attribution pingback registered for app: 1509727806, error: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain code=1208 How can we debug this further? What does the error mean? Thank you very much! (I hope I posted in the correct forum topic. Apologies if not)

Transaction.currentEntitlements failing every time
I am shown as being subscribed to our service in the Subscriptions list in settings yet when going to the Storekit2 page in my app it shows me as NOT being subscribed and is unresponsive. I select Restore Subscription, that grays briefly, asks for a password, then returns to blue and nothing else happens. Bouncing back and forth between monthly and yearly likewise gives no response. The Transaction.currentEntitlements seems to be empty so it thinks the user is not subscribed. I have unsubscribed, and resubscribed via the Settings page to no avail.

Adding In-App Purchase to app + review required?
I'm trying to understand the IAP development process. I created my first Product on App Store Connect and am trying to build my app to use it. However it keeps failing with "Invalid product ID.". From what I've read, this is because the product has not yet gone through review. But what I don't understand is, of course it hasn't gone through review yet, because trying to use it in any capacity fails, even though I'm using a real physical device and using a Sandbox User. Is this the correct workflow? It seems very backwards that I have to submit the product for review, even before I know how it's going to be used. I'm still building the screen for the product page, and haven't even started touching any backend APIs, yet it's asking for screenshots. Am I misunderstanding something here?

Hi all, I’m testing Subscription in my Flutter app on a real iOS device (iPhone 16 Pro with iOS 18) via TestFlight. I’ve set everything up as required, but I still get this error: flutter: Found products: [] If everything works perfectly when StoreKit configuration is used in Xcode, but not via TestFlight. All my Subscriptions are approved with the same ID.

StoreKit 2 Fails to Load Subscription Products
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.

App Store Server API JWT Authentication Issue
Issue Description I am experiencing persistent 401 Unauthorized errors when attempting to access the App Store Server API using JWT authentication. Despite following Apple's documentation and regenerating keys, I am unable to successfully authenticate. Implementation Details I'm implementing JWT authentication for the App Store Server API to retrieve transaction information from the following endpoint: https://api.storekit.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v1/transactions/{transactionID} My JWT generation code (in PHP/Laravel) follows Apple's documentation: php$kid = '6W6H649LJ4'; $header = [ "alg" => "ES256", "kid" => $kid, "typ" => "JWT" ]; $iss = 'b8d99de7-b43b-4cbb-aada-546ec784e249'; // App Store Connect API Key Issuer ID $bid = 'com.gitiho.learnCourse'; // Bundle ID $payload = [ "iss" => $iss, "iat" => time(), "exp" => time() + 3600, "aud" => "appstoreconnect-v1", "bid" => $bid ]; $pathFileAuthKeyP8 = "AuthKey_6W6H649LJ4.p8"; $contentFileAuthKey = \File::get(base_path($pathFileAuthKeyP8)); $alg = "ES256"; $jwt = \Firebase\JWT\JWT::encode($payload, $contentFileAuthKey, $alg, null, $header); Steps Taken to Troubleshoot Verified that the Issuer ID is correct and in UUID format Confirmed that the Key ID matches the private key filename Regenerated the key with proper App Store Server API permissions Ensured the private key file is properly formatted with correct headers and footers Verified that the JWT is being properly encoded using the ES256 algorithm Confirmed the bundle ID is correct for our application Checked that the API endpoint URL is correct Additional Information This implementation previously worked correctly We started experiencing 401 errors recently without changing our implementation We are using the Firebase JWT library for PHP to encode the JWT Request Could you please help identify what might be causing these authentication failures? Is there any recent change in the authentication requirements or endpoint URLs that might be affecting our integration? Thanks for support me.

Clarification on Offer-Code Redemption When Streamlined Purchasing Is Turned Off
Background We sell a suite of iPadOS/macOS apps that share a single auto-renewable subscription using this architecture. Per “Offering a Subscription Across Multiple Apps” we require users to sign in before purchasing so we can propagate the entitlement and avoid duplicate subscriptions across apps. To enforce that sign-in step we plan to turn off Streamlined Purchasing in App Store Connect. Question We also want to distribute subscription offer codes (for promotion, retention, appeasing dissatisfied customers, etc.). After Streamlined Purchasing is turned off, will customers still be able to redeem offer codes outside the app (App Store “Redeem Code” UI or redemption URL)? If outside-app redemption remains possible, it bypasses our sign-in gate and could let the same customer buy the suite twice (once via each app). Is there an approved method to limit offer-code redemption to the in-app flow only, or otherwise prevent such duplicate subscriptions? If no such limitation exists, what best-practice workaround does Apple recommend for multi-app suites that must turn off Streamlined Purchasing yet still wish to use offer codes without duplication risk? Environment StoreKit 2; server-side receipt validation & cross-app entitlement propagation. Apps support the in-app presentCodeRedemptionSheet flow. We expect to use both one-time-use and custom offer codes.
