App Store StoreKit web hooks doesn't work o=in the Sandbox env.
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

StoreKit returning 0 products (IAPError: storekit_no_response)
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.

Receiving 404 Error for APNs Server Notifications When Validating signedPayload
Hi everyone, I'm experiencing an issue with APNs server notifications where I receive a 404 error when trying to validate the signedPayload from Apple's notification. Below is a sanitized version of my code: class ServerNotificationAppleController extends Controller { // URL for StoreKit keys (Sandbox environment) private $storeKitKeysUrl = 'https://api.storekit-sandbox.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v1/keys'; public function handleNotification(Request $request) { \Log::info($request); $signedPayload = $request->input('signedPayload'); if (!$signedPayload) { return response()->json(['error' => 'signedPayload not provided'], 400); } // Step 1: Create your JWT token (token creation logic can be in a separate service) $jwtToken = $this->generateAppleJWT(); // Step 2: Send a request to the StoreKit keys endpoint $response = Http::withHeaders([ 'Authorization' => 'Bearer ' . $jwtToken, ])->get($this->storeKitKeysUrl); Log::info('Apple Keys Status:', ['status' => $response->status()]); Log::info('Apple Keys Body:', ['body' => $response->body()]); if ($response->status() !== 200) { return response()->json(['error' => "Apple public keys couldn't be retrieved"], 401); } $keysData = $response->json(); // Step 3: Validate the signedPayload $validatedPayload = $this->validateSignedPayload($signedPayload, $keysData); if (!$validatedPayload) { return response()->json(['error' => 'Invalid signedPayload'], 400); } // Process the validated data as needed Log::info("Apple Purchase Data:", (array)$validatedPayload); return response()->json(['message' => 'Notification processed successfully'], 200); } private function generateAppleJWT() { // API key details (replace placeholders with actual values) $keyId = config('services.apple.key_id'); // e.g., <YOUR_KEY_ID> $issuerId = config('services.apple.issuer_id'); // e.g., <YOUR_ISSUER_ID> $privateKey = file_get_contents(storage_path(config('services.apple.private_key'))); // Set current UTC time and expiration time (20 minutes later) $nowUtc = Carbon::now('UTC'); $expirationUtc = $nowUtc->copy()->addMinutes(20); // Create the payload with UTC timestamps $payload = [ 'iss' => $issuerId, 'iat' => $nowUtc->timestamp, 'exp' => $expirationUtc->timestamp, 'aud' => 'appstoreconnect-v1', 'bid' => 'com.example.app', // Replace with your Bundle ID if necessary ]; // Generate the JWT token return JWT::encode($payload, $privateKey, 'ES256', $keyId); } private function validateSignedPayload($signedPayload, $keysData) { try { $jwkKeys = JWK::parseKeySet($keysData); return JWT::decode($signedPayload, $jwkKeys, ['RS256']); } catch (\Exception $e) { Log::error("Apple Purchase Validation Error: " . $e->getMessage()); return null; } } } I’m particularly puzzled by the fact that I receive a 404 error when trying to retrieve the public keys from the StoreKit keys endpoint. Has anyone encountered this issue or can provide insight into what might be causing the error? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Advanced commerce API - dynamic subscriptions
Hello, We have been approved for the Advanced commerce API and we are trying to implement dynamically created subscriptions via the SubscriptionCreateRequest. We followed the Sending Advanced Commerce API requests from your app (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/sending-advanced-commerce-api-requests-from-your-app) documentation but we are not able to make it work correctly. We created a generic subscription in the Appstore connect, product ID: com.example.subscription Then in the app we load the subscription: try await Product.products(for: ["com.example.subscription"]) We do the JWS serialization on our backend and then we wrap the jwt and convert it to Data in the app as this: let request = """ { "signatureInfo": { "token": "\(result.signedPayload)" } } """ let advancedCommerceRequestData = Data(request.utf8) Lastly, we apply the purchase options on the generic product as this: try await product.purchase( options: [ Product.PurchaseOption.custom( key: "advancedCommerceData", value: advancedCommerceRequestData ) ] ) It doesn't show any error, but on the payment sheet it shows the data from the generic subscription and not the data that was in the SubscriptionCreateRequest. Here is an example of the generated jwt: eyJraWQiOiI4V0tNQjhLWTI0IiwidHlwIjoiSldUIiwiYWxnIjoiRVMyNTYifQ.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.kJ0f_q2A11Mn9OBmvX6SRmtW5P--volFTVcq_Gohs3N51ECfZqS3WHOxOZc7aojq_qiUHGFp_evmHP51f3LzSw

Unexpected 401 Unauthorized response from production endpoint when using sandbox transactionId with Get Transaction Info API
We have encountered an issue when verifying transactions using the Get Transaction Info API. We tested the behavior in both the sandbox and production environments and observed the following results. When calling the production endpoint: https://api.storekit.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v1/transactions/{transactionId} with a transactionId generated in the sandbox environment, the API returns HTTP 401 Unauthorized. However, based on the documentation and common understanding, we expected HTTP 404 Not Found in this case. Using the same JWT token, if we call the sandbox endpoint: https://api.storekit-sandbox.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v1/transactions/{transactionId}, we receive HTTP 200 OK with the expected response body. We have also confirmed that the same behavior occurs when using the Get Transaction History API — it works correctly in the sandbox environment but returns 401 in production. Could you please confirm whether this behavior (receiving 401 instead of 404) is expected by design, or if it indicates a potential issue? If this is not the intended behavior, we would appreciate any guidance or instructions to resolve it. Thank you very much for your technical support. 「Get Transaction Info」APIを用いてトランザクションの検証を行ったところ、以下の問題が発生しました。 サンドボックス環境および本番環境の両方で検証を行い、次の結果を確認しています。 本番環境エンドポイント https://api.storekit.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v1/transactions/{transactionId} に対して サンドボックス環境で生成された transactionId を使用すると、HTTP 401 Unauthorized が返却されます。 (一般的には、この場合 404 Not Found が返る想定であると理解しています。) 同一のJWTトークン を用いて サンドボックス環境のエンドポイント https://api.storekit-sandbox.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v1/transactions/{transactionId} を呼び出した場合は、HTTP 200 OK が返り、期待通りのレスポンスボディを受け取ることができています。 また、同様の挙動が Get Transaction History を使用した場合にも発生することを確認しています。 サンドボックス環境では正常に動作しますが、本番環境では401が返却されます。 この挙動(401が返却されること)は仕様上想定されたものか、または何らかの問題によるものかご確認をお願いいたします。 もし想定外の挙動である場合は、解決に向けたご案内をいただけますと幸いです。 本件について、技術的なサポートをお願いいたします。 よろしくお願いいたします。

Sandbox user can't see StoreKit subscriptions
Hi everyone, I’m struggling to get StoreKit 2 to fetch products in my SwiftUI app while using a sandbox user. I think I’ve followed all necessary setup steps in Xcode, App Store Connect, and my physical test device, but Product.products(for:) always returns an empty array. I’d appreciate any insights! What I’ve Done Local App Setup (Xcode 16.2) Created a blank SwiftUI Xcode project. Enabled In-App Purchase capability under Signing & Capabilities. Implemented minimal StoreKit 2 code to fetch available products (see below). Using the correct bundle identifier, which matches App Store Connect. App Store Connect Configuration Registered the app with the same bundle identifier. Created an Auto-Renewable Subscription with: Product ID: v1 (matches my code). All fields filled (pricing, localization, etc.). Status: Ready for Review. Linked the subscription to the latest app version in App Store Connect. Sandbox User & Testing Setup Created a sandbox tester account. Logged in with the sandbox user under Settings → Developer → Sandbox Apple ID. This was on my physical device (iOS 18.2). Installed and ran the app directly from Xcode (⌘+R). Issue: StoreKit Returns No Products Product.products(for:) does not return any products. There are no errors thrown, just an empty array. I confirmed that StoreKit Configuration is set to None in Xcode. No StoreKit-related logs appear in the Console. Code Snippets //StoreKitManager.swift import StoreKit import SwiftUI @MainActor class StoreKitManager: ObservableObject { @Published var products: [Product] = [] @Published var errorMessage: String? func fetchProducts() async { do { let productIDs: Set<String> = ["v1"] // Matches App Store Connect let fetchedProducts = try await Product.products(for: productIDs) print(fetchedProducts) // Debug output DispatchQueue.main.async { self.products = fetchedProducts } } catch { DispatchQueue.main.async { self.errorMessage = "Failed to fetch products: \(error.localizedDescription)" } } } } //ContentView.swift import SwiftUI struct ContentView: View { @StateObject private var storeKitManager = StoreKitManager() var body: some View { VStack { if let errorMessage = storeKitManager.errorMessage { Text(errorMessage).foregroundColor(.red) } else if storeKitManager.products.isEmpty { Text("No products available") } else { List(storeKitManager.products, id: \.id) { product in VStack(alignment: .leading) { Text(product.displayName).font(.headline) Text(product.description).font(.subheadline) Text("\(product.price.formatted(.currency(code: product.priceFormatStyle.currencyCode ?? "USD")))") .bold() } } } Button("Fetch Products") { Task { await storeKitManager.fetchProducts() } } } .padding() .onAppear { Task { await storeKitManager.fetchProducts() } } } } #Preview { ContentView() } Additional Information iOS Version: 18.2 Xcode Version: 16.2 macOS Version: 15.3.1 Device: Physical iPhone (not simulator) TestFlight Build: Not used (app is run directly from Xcode) StoreKit Configuration: Set to None

Why does AppStore.requestReview(in:) require NSViewController Parameter?
Looking to update one of my apps that uses SKStoreReviewController +requestReview (deprecated) to AppStore.requestReview(in:) umm...I have a few of questions... Why is an NSViewController parameter required? It's really not so uncommon for an AppKit app to just use NSWindowController with a window that does not use NSViewController... It should be possible to present the review request in a standalone alert (attached to a window is preferred IMO but it still should be possible to ask in separate window). 3)...why Swift..(err nevermind) Ideally: AppStore requestReview should take a NSWindow parameter but that parameter should be optional. If nil the request should be presented in a standalone window (like an alert). If non nil..present as a sheet on the window. Why a view controller? Maybe I'm missing something.

Transitioning a freemium app to StoreKit 2
I'm currently working on transitioning to StoreKit 2. In order to see if my users are legacy users who purchased the app before I implemented an in-app purchase, I am trying to use the original purchase date for the app. Unfortunately, it's returning 0 seconds since 1970. func updateOriginalPurchaseStatus() async throws { let transaction = try await checkVerified(AppTransaction.shared) self.originalPurchaseVersion = transaction.originalAppVersion self.originalPurchaseDate = transaction.originalPurchaseDate } This is from the transaction: [3] = { key = "originalPurchaseDate" value = number (number = 0) } Currently trying to figure out when I actually purchased the app, but it might be as early as 2012. And I likely used a download code.

Non-consumable IAP for free trial
Hello. My newly released app includes a 1 day free trial. I've done this by creating a non-consumable in-app purchase priced at 0. I consider the free trial active if there's a transaction (from Transaction.currentEntitlements) for that product such that transaction.originalPurchaseDate is less than 24 hours ago. This works fine locally in the simulator and also in TestFlight, however it does not seem to work in the actual app from the App Store. The user can "purchase" it fine; they see the purchase sheet with the product name and the $0.00 price, and when they double press the side button it all seems to work. However, the app then behaves as if it didn't work. The free trial product is no longer available though. One thing is that I didn't follow the naming convention “XX-day Trial”. Could that be the problem? If so, is that meant to be for the product reference name?

Issues with Testing Promotional Offers for Auto-Renewable Subscriptions (StoreKit 2)
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?

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 Notifications and API Client - Toggling Sandbox vs Production Environment
The documentation mentions the following: Verify your receipt first with the production URL; then verify with the sandbox URL if you receive a 21007 status code. This approach ensures you don’t have to switch between URLs while your app is in testing, in review by App Review, or live in the App Store. This way, you can use one server environment to handle both Sandbox and Production environments. It is necessary to pass App Review. However, I'm not manually hitting these URLs - I'm using Apple's libraries. Specifically, the environment is used in SignedDataVerifier and AppStoreServerAPIClient. (I can't link to these because, for some reason, the domain apple.github.io is not allowed. The documentation for these is only found there. You can find it quickly by searching these terms and the domain.) Here is how SignedDataVerifier is being used: const verifier = new SignedDataVerifier( appleRootCertificates, APPLE_ENABLE_ONLINE_CHECKS, APPLE_ENVIRONMENT, APPLE_BUNDLE_ID, APPLE_APP_ID ) const verifiedNotification: ResponseBodyV2DecodedPayload = await verifier.verifyAndDecodeNotification(signedPayload) if (!verifiedNotification) { // Failure return } Here is how AppStoreServerAPIClient is being used: const appStoreServerAPIClient = new AppStoreServerAPIClient( SIGNING_KEY, APPLE_IAP_KEY_ID, APPLE_IAP_ISSUER_ID, APPLE_BUNDLE_ID, APPLE_ENVIRONMENT ) const statusResponse: StatusResponse = await appStoreServerAPIClient.getAllSubscriptionStatuses(originalTransactionId, [Status.ACTIVE]) In the source code for SignedDataVerifier.verifyAndDecodeNotification, I can see that it throws a VerificationException(VerificationStatus.INVALID_ENVIRONMENT) error . So for SignedDataVerifier is it as simple as wrapping my code in a try/catch and checking that the error's status code is 21007? I'm unsure about this because if you scroll to the bottom of the linked source code file, you can see the enumeration VerificationStatus, but it's unclear if this member has a value of 21007. The source code for AppStoreServerAPIClient only says that it throws an APIException if a response could not be processed, so I'm not too sure about how to handle this one.

restoreCompletedTransactions not working on iOS 26
I use [[SKPaymentQueue defaultQueue] restoreCompletedTransactions]. Works on my App which is in the store (compiled pre-iOS 26). If I compile the same App now, same codebase with Xcode Version 26.0, restore does not work. Nothing happens. Tested on real device (iOS 26). Documentation says its deprecated, but my deployment target is iOS 12. Anyone has similar issues? Any recommendations?

No subscriptions showed to buy in release phase
I have auto-renewable subscriptions, and in Xcode everything works fine. It shows a list of subscriptions where I can make a test purchase. But when I send it for review, the review team, as well as TestFlight, simply do not have subscriptions. If the problem was in the code, it would not work in the sandbox as I think. But I think that I configured everything correctly in the subscription settings. The only thing: it shows there for the subscription in appstoreconnect that it is preparing for review, but nothing can be done about it, because it will be solved with the first release of the application. But I do not know where else to look and what to do. The problem is probably not in the code, but I also redirected the subscription config in appstoreconnect a bunch of times. I asked help on review team, no way. Tried to google and chat GPT, no ideas where to find a solution.

iOS 26 Beta 9 Purchase Issues
Hello all, Posting here before I put in a support ticket to see if there are any ideas. The previous beta issues seem to have been resolved, but now we are having intermittent problems with sandbox purchases. We do not know if this will affect real purchases. This is happening on beta 9 in both public and dev channels for us, most often on iPad Pro 4th. gen (Though idk if that is relevant). Sometimes running TestFlight builds on iOS 26 beta 9 devices we will have attempts to make sandbox purchases just go into a black hole. We do not get a "Do you want to buy this" popup, or the credentials screen. It just pauses for a bit in the section of our code that would be akin to: let result = try await product.purchase( options: [.appAccountToken(accountUUID) ] ) Then wait a couple seconds, and then nothing. The game returns to normal flow as if it was a pending purchase, but nothing more ever happens. We have not been able to get a local debug build to do this, so it's hard for us to tell if it is going into the pending bucket, the userCancelled bucket, or the unverified bucket, etc. If we take a device in this state and remove the app and reinstall from TestFlight we will get a credentials popup on the first attempt after install to buy, and after putting in our info we will get the " "You've already purchased this In-App Purchase...", but nothing ever his our listener and we return to the broken state. Has anyone else seen issues like this? P.S. Our StoreKit logic code is currently widely distributed, so if it was reproducible in the live version on iOS 18 we would know about it. Thanks, Chris
