FB: https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/feedback/22556883 We're seeing a small number of production users where both Transaction.currentEntitlements and Transaction.all return zero transactions for a valid, active, non-refunded non-consumable IAP. This makes it impossible to restore the purchase via any StoreKit 2 API. Environment: Xcode 26.4 (Build 17E192) iOS 26.4.1 Direct call to SK2 Transactions.all & Flutter in_app_purchase package v3.2.3 (uses SK2 on iOS 15+) Non-consumable IAP (one-time purchase) What we observe: AppStore.sync() triggers but the purchase stream returns 0 transactions Transaction.all returns empty Transaction.currentEntitlements also returns empty User is confirmed on the correct Apple ID Issue reproduces on both iPhone and Mac for the same Apple ID Issue appears to have started recently for users who previously had no problems Debug log from affected production user: [2026-04-20T08:50:10.744115Z] init: iapAvailable=true [2026-04-20T08:50:10.744566Z] init: isPremium=false [2026-04-20T08:50:10.744567Z] init: triggering silent restorePurchases [2026-04-20T08:50:45.974566Z] restore: started [2026-04-20T08:50:45.986848Z] restore: sk2Transactions count=0 [2026-04-20T08:50:45.993004Z] restore: sk2Direct isVerified=false active=null [2026-04-20T08:50:45.993011Z] restore: sk2Direct inconclusive — falling back to standard restore [2026-04-20T08:51:16.000851Z] restore: timed out after 30s — fallback isPremium=false [2026-04-20T08:51:16.000910Z] restore: completed — succeeded=false foundPurchase=false Unable to reproduce in sandbox — Transaction.all works correctly there. Appears specific to production for a small subset of users. Has anyone else seen this?

你好： 以下是我的问题： 问题类型：苹果内功IAP相关问题 问题详情：我的应用是免费下载，内购一次性解锁。对于没有下载过应用的人使用我创建的优惠码，会直接显示花钱付费下载。这里是我设置的问题么?

Hi! I’m facing some difficulties while integrating with Apple external purchase API. I would like to clarify a few points in the documentation. Subscription Events Documentation mentions four subscription events: SUBSCRIPTION_START, SUBSCRIPTION_CHANGE, SUBSCRIPTION_PAYMENT, and RENEWAL. Could you clarify what SUBSCRIPTION_PAYMENT is used for? The examples indicate that we should send the tax and payment amounts in the SUBSCRIPTION_START and RENEWAL events. Should we also send them for SUBSCRIPTION_PAYMENT? 2. Unused Tokens Customers generate ACQUISITION and SERVICE tokens and send them to us. According to the documentation, we must report every token received. If we process balance transactions linked to an ACQUISITION token, should we send the SERVICE token with NO LINE ITEM? Should we continue sending the SERVICE token with NO LINE ITEM status in the following months? 3. Should we send reports only once a month? What should we do if, at the time a transaction is received, the token was active, but by the time the report is due, it has already expired? Do we still need to report it in that case? 4. What should we do if we receive a notification about an unreported token in the middle of the month? Should we send the report immediately, or should we take note of the token and include it in the report at the scheduled time at the beginning of the month? 5. Am I correct in understanding that if a user purchases a monthly subscription and cancels the renewals within the same month, the reports will contain only one event — SUBSCRIPTION_START with subscriptionDaysOfPaidService = 0? If a renewal for a monthly subscription fails and the payment is completed after a 7-day grace period, should we report 37 days or 30 days in subscriptionDaysOfPaidService in the RENEWAL event? Thank you in advance for your guidance!

Hello, I have a perplexing issue with apple reviewers not having the same experience as myself regarding the paywall. This is an Expo app and uses RevenueCat and SuperWall integrations. This app is going through its first review - it is not published yet. So the app and its subscriptions are being reviewed for the first time. I should also mention that this is my first time as an app developer, so please pardon my ignorance. When I install the app from TestFlight and launch it, I see the paywall with the product prices shown and I can complete a test purchase. Same for my friends who I've asked to test for me. But the apple reviewer does not see the product prices when the paywall is shown to them. Without being able to replicate the problem I am flying blind. I don't want to re-submit the app for review only to find the same problem exists. I also need to understand what is different between my testing environment and the apple testers. If anyone can point me in the right direction here I would really appreciate the help!

Hello, I need guidance on App Store Connect product state vs StoreKit behavior during App Review. Stack: iOS app (Expo / React Native), subscriptions via RevenueCat + StoreKit. Bundle ID matches App Store Connect. RevenueCat API keys — what I’ve verified locally: With the production RevenueCat API key (iOS appl_..., same as the submitted build), everything works on local device but not when I download it from TestFlight. I have also tested with RevenueCat’s sandbox / test API key (the separate key intended for sandbox/testing). That setup works as well — I can load offerings and complete test purchases the same way What RevenueCat (SDK / dashboard health) reports: Product monthly is configured in RevenueCat. Warnings that products aren’t approved in App Store Connect yet and that the default offering has configuration issues. Apple’s product state: WAITING_FOR_REVIEW. The SDK still states that test purchases are possible. What App Review reports: After onboarding a new business account, “Activate subscription” leads to an error (plans don’t load / purchase path fails). Review suggested an app code issue. Why this is confusing: Locally, both RevenueCat key modes I tried (production and sandbox/test) work with Apple Sandbox on the device. The submitted build uses the production RevenueCat key. Review still sees a failure. Questions: For IAP in WAITING_FOR_REVIEW, should App Review always use an Apple Sandbox account to test subscriptions until the product is fully approved? Is it documented that StoreKit may not return products during review without Sandbox while the product remains WAITING_FOR_REVIEW? Has anyone else seen “works locally (prod + sandbox RevenueCat keys + Apple Sandbox) but Review fails” with the same WAITING_FOR_REVIEW state? Thanks for any official documentation or similar threads.

Hello, I have an issue with In-App Purchases during App Review. In TestFlight and Sandbox, everything works correctly: Products are loaded Subscriptions are visible Purchase completes successfully However, Apple reports that the purchase fails during review. My subscriptions are: Created and active in App Store Connect Attached to the app version Paid Apps Agreement accepted I also added all required information (price, duration, EULA, privacy policy). Why would purchases work in TestFlight but fail during App Review? Thank you for your help.

Hello, We are a Russian developer attempting to enable the StoreKit External Purchase Link Entitlement for our app. According to Apple’s documentation, this entitlement is required to provide external purchase links in Russia. However, the official request page consistently returns a 500 Internal Server Error: https://developer.apple.com/contact/request/storekit-external-entitlement-ru Steps we tried: Different browsers (Safari, Chrome, Edge) Different networks and VPNs Multiple developer accounts The error persists in all cases. We have already opened a support case (Case #102864703080), but Developer Support advised us to post here for technical guidance. Questions: Is there an alternative way to submit the entitlement request while the page is unavailable? Can Apple confirm whether this is a known issue and if a fix is in progress? Are manual submissions via the general Contact Us form accepted for this entitlement? Screenshots of the error are attached. Thank you in advance for any guidance.

We have a user from Asia whose subscription failed to be detected by our app. On 26.4. They also tried revoking the yearly subscription and activating a monthly. Payment ok and the device reported that the subscription is active. Our code relies on Transaction.currentEntitlements in StoreKit, which seems to be broken, at least for this user. None of these worked: Installing iOS 26.4.1 Reinstalling our app Logging out and in from iCloud. Hard device reset Full iOS reinstall. User finally gave up and got a refund. I am reporting here in case other apps experienced similar problems. This discussion mentions that a regression in 26.4 might have contributed to the issue which is supposed to be fixed in 26.4.1. ( https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/820562?answerId=883682022#883682022 ) The issue may have persisted or left the entitlements corrupt for this particular user. Hoping that the issue is resolved so we do not have more problems in the future.

I submitted my last macOS application with IAP on Oct. 23rd, 2025. I was able to test-purchase a non-consumable product with the StoreKit configuration file at that time. These days, every time I test a new macOS application with the configuration file, a purchase process fails. The thing is they all now fail if I test the store with existing applications that were once working. Xcode shows the following debugging error. Purchase failed with error: systemError(Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service created from an endpoint was invalidated from this process." UserInfo={AMSDescription=An unknown error occurred. Please try again., AMSURL=http://localhost:53272/WebObjects/MZBuy.woa/wa/inAppBuy, NSDebugDescription=The connection to service created from an endpoint was invalidated from this process., AMSStatusCode=200, AMSServerPayload={ All my iOS apps don't exhibit the same problem. This StoreKit fiasco only happens for macOS applications. And I'm thinking that it all started to occur after I began using Xcode 26. Not a single line of code has changed. But the applications that were once able to process IAP all now fail. And I'm suspecting that it's Xcode 26 that is responsible for this failure. My Xcode version is 26.2, by the way. Any macOS application developer experiencing the same problem?

I am having constant issues with the IAP on my app. I have now, after several review rejections, created a brand new non-consumable in-app purchase product and updated the submitted build to use the new product identifier. We also updated the paywall so it no longer loops and instead shows fallback messaging plus manual retry/restore options when pricing is unavailable. However, in TestFlight and sandbox testing, StoreKit is still not returning the product details, so no localized price is available to display. This suggests the in-app purchase is not being returned by Apple’s review/sandbox environment rather than a client-side UI issue. Has anyone else had this issue and of so how did they resolve this?

Based on https://developer.apple.com/help/app-store-connect/configure-in-app-purchase-settings/enter-server-urls-for-app-store-server-notifications It seems like we can choose between version 1 or version 2 notification Choose either Version 1 (deprecated) or Version 2 notifications. Learn about versions of App Store Server Notifications. However, I do not find a way to make such a choice. Does anyone know, how I can choose between v1 or v2 notification? We currently provide a self-hosted server endpoint built on the v1 specification. While the existing server is perfectly stable, we are evaluating a migration to v2. Thanks.

The product ID entered has already been used by other in-app purchases associated with this team. I previously used fortune_pay_1, but not apple_pay_1 or apple_pays_1 How can this be solved

Hello everyone I'm implementing age verification in my app to comply with upcoming age assurance laws (Utah, etc.), and I'm using AppStore.ageRatingCode from StoreKit to retrieve my app's current age rating. According to the documentation: extension AppStore { @available(iOS 26.2, macOS 26.2, tvOS 26.2, watchOS 26.2, *) public static var ageRatingCode: Int? { get async } } "Use this property to fetch the age rating for your app and compare it with the last known age rating to check if it has changed." However, calling this always returns 0 in my environment. Environment: Device: Real physical device (not simulator) iOS version: 26.4 Sandbox Apple Account: signed in via Settings → Developer → Sandbox Apple Account App Store Connect: app is registered and age rating is configured Xcode Scheme → Run → Options → StoreKit Configuration: None Code: func getAgeRatingCode() async -> Int? { guard let ageRatingCode = await AppStore.ageRatingCode else { print("Age rating code unavailable") return nil } print("ageRatingCode: \(ageRatingCode)") // always prints 0 return ageRatingCode } Questions: What integer values does ageRatingCode map to? (e.g., does 4+ = 4, 9+ = 9, 13+ = 13, etc.? Or is it a different internal code?) This mapping is not documented anywhere I can find. Is 0 a valid return value, and if so, what does it represent? Is there a known issue with this API returning 0 even when all conditions appear to be correctly configured? Any guidance from Apple engineers or developers who have successfully used this API would be greatly appreciated.

[SKStoreReviewController requestReviewInScene:] no longer displays the review prompt in debug/development builds on iOS 26.5 beta (23F5043k and 23F5043g). According to Apple's documentation, the review prompt should always appear in debug builds to facilitate testing. This was working in previous iOS versions (iOS 26.4 and older). Steps to reproduce: Run app from Xcode in debug configuration on a device running iOS 26.5 beta (23F5043k or 23F5043g) Call [SKStoreReviewController requestReviewInScene:windowScene] with a valid, foreground-active UIWindowScene Observe that the method executes without error (scene is valid per NSLog) but no review prompt appears Expected: Review prompt should display in debug builds Actual: No prompt appears, despite the scene being valid and foreground-active This worked correctly on previous iOS versions (26.4) so looks like this bug was introduced in 26.5 Beta versions. I have already filed a bug report in Feedback Assistant with number: FB22445620

I am testing auto renewing subscriptions for a macOS program in Xcode with a local Storekit file. I have renewals set to occur every minute for testing. I quit the app, and watch renewals appear in the Debug transaction manager window. Each is marked unfinished. When I start the app, I call a function that is supposed to get unfinished transactions and finish them. In one of those "I swore it worked the other day", I am now finding it isn't working. The unfinished transaction remain marked as unfinished. func getUnfinished() async { for await verificationResult in Transaction.unfinished { guard case .verified(let transaction) = verificationResult else { continue } await transaction.finish() } } If I add an AppStore.sync() right before looping on Transaction.unfinished, it works (i.e., cleans up unfinished transactions), but I get an alert I have to click through. do { try await AppStore.sync() } catch { print("DEBUG UNFINISHED: AppStore.sync() failed: \(error)") } Any idea why Transaction.unfinished isn't fetching unfinished transactions for me (without the AppStore.sync)?

StoreKit2 Repro Notes: the latest renewal appears in Transaction.unfinished after restore (2026-04-05) 1. Issue Summary In the current project, during a normal cold launch: Transaction.latest(for:) returns a value for the weekly subscription Transaction.all returns the full subscription history chain Transaction.unfinished is empty However, after tapping Restore Purchases and calling AppStore.sync(), one "latest renewal" transaction appears in Transaction.unfinished. This behavior looks more like a system-side replay triggered by AppStore.sync() than a consistently unfinished transaction during a normal launch. 2. Affected Product Product: do.i.iapc.vip.week Transaction chain characteristics: All transactions belong to the same auto-renewable subscription chain originalTransactionID = 2000001143446796 The transaction that appears in unfinished is usually the latest or last renewal in the chain 3. Current Code Path During app startup: loadProducts() Debug snapshot for Transaction.latest(for:) Debug snapshot for Transaction.all Scan Transaction.unfinished refreshEntitlements() During restore purchases: Call AppStore.sync() Scan Transaction.unfinished refreshEntitlements() 4. Preconditions A Sandbox test account is used The weekly subscription do.i.iapc.vip.week already has multiple historical renewal transactions The subscription is already expired, so entitlements = 0 during a normal launch The issue is easier to reproduce on an iOS 26.4 device The issue was not consistently reproduced on another iOS 18.2 device 5. Reproduction Steps Path A: Normal cold launch Launch the app Observe the logs: LatestTransaction snapshot AllTransaction snapshot summary unfinished processing result Observed result: latest has a value all contains the full history chain unfinishedHandledCount = 0 Path B: Tap Restore Purchases Launch the app Tap Restore Purchases Trigger AppStore.sync() Observe the logs: restore started unfinished processing started unfinished transaction received Observed result: After restore, one "latest renewal" transaction appears in unfinished That same transaction does not necessarily appear during a normal cold launch 6. Expected Result If a transaction has already been successfully finished in the past, it should not appear again as unfinished after Restore Purchases. A stricter expectation is: During a normal cold launch, unfinished = 0 After tapping Restore Purchases, unfinished should still remain 0 7. Actual Result Actual behavior: Normal cold launch: unfinished = 0 After Restore Purchases: one "latest renewal" transaction appears again in unfinished This suggests that AppStore.sync() may replay the most recent historical subscription transaction. 8. Current Assessment Based on the current logs, the issue is more likely to be: Related to AppStore.sync() / StoreKit / Sandbox replay behavior on the system side Easier to reproduce on iOS 26.4 Less likely to be caused by a persistent app-side bug where finish() is missed during a normal startup flow Reasons: During a normal launch, unfinished = 0 The behavior is inconsistent across devices and OS versions, even with the same Sandbox account latest, all, and unfinished can be clearly separated during a normal cold launch 9. Suggested Engineering Position Suggested wording for internal or external communication: In the iOS 26.4 + Sandbox environment, calling AppStore.sync() may cause StoreKit to replay the latest historical subscription transaction into Transaction.unfinished. Since the same transaction does not necessarily appear during a normal cold launch, the issue currently looks more like a system/environment-specific behavior difference than an app-side bug where finish() is consistently missed during the regular startup path. 10. Additional Evidence That Can Be Collected If this needs to be escalated to the team or to Apple, the following would strengthen the report: Full log comparison before and after tapping Restore Purchases The same transactionId compared between normal launch and post-restore behavior Cross-device comparison on different iOS versions A minimal reproducible sample project and Sandbox test record

After a user successfully completes a purchase and later requests a refund, how long does it typically take for the refund to be processed and take effect? How does Apple notify developers when a refund has been issued for an in-app purchase? Are there specific mechanisms or recommended approaches to reliably receive such notifications? In cases where users may abuse the refund system (e.g., frequent or malicious refund requests), is there any way for developers to prevent or intervene in the refund process?

I’m trying to submit the first release of my iOS app together with the app’s first consumable in-app purchases, and I’m stuck in what looks like an App Store Connect state issue. My app was already rejected by App Review because the in-app purchases did not appear inside the app when the reviewer opened the paywall. Current setup: First app release Current app version page: iOS App Version 1.0.2 Current attached build: 5 App has never been released before 4 consumable IAPs: com.glowup.credits.100 com.glowup.credits.500 com.glowup.credits.1000 com.glowup.credits.2500 What I see in App Store Connect: All 4 IAPs show Waiting for Review On the iOS App Version 1.0.2 page, the In-App Purchases and Subscriptions section does not appear at all Because of that, I cannot explicitly select or attach the IAPs from the version page What I’ve already done: Uploaded a new build and attached build 5 to version 1.0.2 Removed my local StoreKit configuration file so the app now uses live App Store / StoreKit only Confirmed RevenueCat is configured correctly and sees the offering/packages RevenueCat logs show the products exist remotely, but StoreKit cannot fetch any live products and returns an “offerings empty / none of the products could be fetched” type error RevenueCat also reports the products are still in WAITING_FOR_REVIEW My questions: If the IAPs already show Waiting for Review, are they automatically linked to the current app submission? Is it expected that the In-App Purchases and Subscriptions section can disappear from the app version page in this state? For a first-release app that was already rejected, is attaching a new build and clicking Update Review enough, or is there another step required to associate the IAPs with the resubmission? Has anyone seen App Review reject an app for missing IAPs while the IAPs were still pending review and not yet fetchable from StoreKit? Any guidance from someone who has dealt with this exact first-release + first-IAP submission flow would help a lot.

Hi everyone, I’m currently developing an iOS app using React Native and implementing consumable In-App Purchases (IAP). I'm facing an issue where getProducts returns an empty array without any error messages when testing on a TestFlight build. I have already completed the following setup: Agreements, Tax, and Banking: All forms are signed and the status is "Active" in App Store Connect. Product Configuration: The Consumable product is created in App Store Connect with the status "Ready to Submit". App Store Connect Integration: The product is correctly linked under the "In-App Purchases and Subscriptions" section of the App version. Xcode Capability: The "In-App Purchase" capability has been added to the project. Implementation: The Product ID in my React Native code (using react-native-iap) matches the ID in App Store Connect exactly. Despite these steps, the product list remains empty. Are there any hidden requirements or specific configurations for TestFlight that I might have missed? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello Apple Developer Support / StoreKit Team, We recently observed a behavior regarding the appAccountToken in App Store Server Notifications v2 that seems to completely contradict the official documentation. According to the Set App Account Token documentation: The same appAccountToken continues to apply to renewal transactions if the customer upgrades, downgrades, or cross-grades the subscription. However, we encountered a scenario where an active in-app crossgrade resulted in an updated/overwritten appAccountToken inside the subsequent JWSRenewalInfoDecodedPayload, despite our backend never calling the Set App Account Token REST API. Our Observation: A user subscribes to our 1-month plan (Product A). Apple generates an originalTransactionId bound to their initial appAccountToken (Token A). Later, a crossgrade to a 1-year plan (Product B) is initiated from within the app while the user is logged into a different account in our system (Token B), but using the same underlying Apple ID on the device. When the crossgrade takes effect at the next renewal date, we receive a DID_RENEW webhook. The Anomaly (See Attached Screenshots): Upon decoding the JWSRenewalInfoDecodedPayload from the webhook, we noticed that the appAccountToken had unexpectedly changed to the new token (Token B). As shown in the attached redacted screenshots: Screenshot 1 (Before/Original): JWSRenewalInfoDecodedPayload for Product 00001 shows the appAccountToken ending in ...e9a. Screenshot 2 (After Crossgrade): JWSRenewalInfoDecodedPayload for Product yearly_saver shows the appAccountToken has mutated to ending in ...507, even though the originalTransactionId remains exactly the same. To reiterate, our server did not call the POST /inApps/v1/subscriptions/appAccountToken/{originalTransactionId} endpoint to manually overwrite this token at any point. Our Questions: Is this the intended StoreKit 2 behavior? Does Apple automatically overwrite the base appAccountToken in the RenewalInfo if a new token is somehow associated during an active in-app crossgrade transaction? If this is intended, could the documentation be clarified? The current phrasing strongly suggests the token is permanently locked to the initial purchase and will never change during crossgrades unless the REST API is explicitly called. While this behavior is actually quite helpful for our backend to track multi-account users, we want to ensure we aren't relying on an undocumented bug that might be patched unexpectedly. Any insights from the StoreKit engineering team would be highly appreciated. Thank you!
