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.

Behavior of the "get all subscription statuses" API.
We are running auto-renewing subscriptions with StoreKit2 and the “get all subscription statuses” API is behaving unexpectedly. record the originalTransactionId from the iPhone to the server side when purchasing a subscription with Storekit2. query the get all subscription statuses API from the server side with the originalTransactionId recorded. get all subscription statuses returns a response, but there is no data in the response that matches the originalTransactionId. I have an error on my system because I have built my system on the assumption that all subscriptions including originalTransactionId will be returned.

Recurring subscriptions return with an "Unknown Error" fail message
Testing recurring subscriptions in a new release in both development environment and in Test Flight, we see an increased percentage of failed calls returning from Apple server. The return failure message is that an unknown error occurred. The behavior is not consistent and most often we get a failure and another attempt succeeds. We do get around 50% failures which is alarming and cannot be explained to the end user. We have also experimented with previous test versions that are in production currently and we see the same behavior, so this is not isolated to the most recent release we plan nor to a specific application we have. Past testing in previous releases did not return such high percentage of failures from Apple server. Have you encountered such an issue? We have no idea what may cause Apple server to return with this "Unknown error" and there is no log we can consume from Apple subscription service. Appreciate your help on this.

Reuse a product id from app A in app B for In-app purchase in my iOS app
I have an app which is already on App Store with In-app purchase. Now I want to integrate In-app purchase in my another app for the same products as in the existing app. Both the apps are using same Apple Account. Can I reuse those Product Ids from the first app in the second one. If yes, what is the ways to use them. Thank you in advance.

IAPs after rejection
Hi everyone, After my app was initially rejected, all my IAPs now show the status “Developer Action Needed.” There’s nothing I need to change on them — they were just returned because it was the first submission and the app itself was rejected. Do I need to do anything with the IAPs before I resubmit, or will they still be attached and reviewed automatically with the next binary? I’ve seen conflicting answers, so I’d like to confirm the correct process. Thanks, Cris

subscriptions before submitting a review
We distribute apps that offer auto-renewing subscriptions. In order to test a new service, we would like to create a new subscription group and subscription product (hereinafter referred to as “test subscription”) for this app. If the “In-app purchase statuses” of the test subscription is “Ready to Submit” is the following behavior correct? ・General end users cannot purchase the test subscription. ・Users with SANDBOX Apple accounts can purchase the test subscription.

Converting Payed App to Freemium
I just converted my App to Freemium, but the method is used to give user, that bought the App before it was free, access to the paid futures seems not to be working. I am getting the original Purchase Date from the AppTransaction (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/apptransaction/originalpurchasedate) and comparing that to a set date where the App Model changed. In Test Flight this is working without any Problems but on the Live System, users that have purchased the App do not get access! let shared = try await AppTransaction.refresh() if case .verified(let appTransaction) = shared { result(appTransaction.originalPurchaseDate.ISO8601Format()). } I am using flutter to develop the App and the result()... send the string back to the flutter side. Here is the code of the Flutter side: Future<void> restorePurchases() async { SubscriptionProvider().updatePayment(PurchaseStatus.pending); await InAppPurchase.instance.restorePurchases(); if (Platform.isIOS) { DateTime changedToFreemium = DateTime.utc(2025, 4, 7, 11, 0, 0); String? purchaseDateRaw = await IosFlutterChannel().getOriginalPurchaseDate(); if (kDebugMode) { print("Purchase Date Raw: $purchaseDateRaw"); } if (purchaseDateRaw != null) { DateTime purchaseDate = DateTime.parse(purchaseDateRaw); if (purchaseDate.isBefore(changedToFreemium)) { if (kDebugMode) { print("Restoring legacy purchases"); } SubscriptionProvider().update(true, SubscriptionStatus.active, SubscriptionType.fs_lifetime); } else { if (kDebugMode) { print("Not restoring legacy purchases"); } } } } SubscriptionProvider().updatePayment(PurchaseStatus.purchased); } Console Log when running in Test Environment: flutter: Purchase Date Raw: 2013-08-01T07:00:00Z flutter: Restoring legacy purchases Thanks!

Renewal Info never contains offerType
Signed renewal info from 'Get Subscription Statuses' or in server notifications never has the offerType or offerDiscountType even when the corresponding transaction does have those values set. Our offer is a free trial. Do these properties refer to something different in JWSRenewalInfoDecodedPayload than they do in transactions? I'm trying to determine whether a subscription (identified by originalTransactionId) is currently in a free trial based on server notifications. The status doesn't tell us if the subscription is currently in free trial and the signedTransactionInfo may be for an older transaction.

Validating receipt for iOS in-app purchase always returns error 21002
I'm receiving the following error when attempting to validate an in‑app purchase receipt: Certificate verification failed at depth 0 : forge.pki.UnknownCertificateAuthority Certificate chain validation failed: Certificate is not trusted. This error occurs during the certificate chain validation process of the receipt's PKCS#7 container. My implementation uses node‑forge to decode the receipt, extract the embedded certificate chain, and verify that the chain properly links from the leaf certificate (which directly signed the receipt) through the intermediate certificate to the trusted Apple Inc. Root certificate. What the Error Indicates: "UnknownCertificateAuthority" at depth 0: This suggests that the leaf certificate in the receipt is not being recognized as part of a valid chain because it cannot be linked back to a trusted root in my CA store. "Certificate chain validation failed: Certificate is not trusted": This means that the entire certificate chain does not chain up to a trusted certificate authority (in this case, the Apple Inc. Root certificate) as expected. Steps Taken: I verified that the receipt is a valid PKCS#7 container. I extracted the certificate chain from the receipt. However, the receipt only provided the leaf certificate. I manually added the intermediate certificate (AppleWWDRCAG5.pem) to complete the chain. I loaded the official Apple Inc. Root certificate (AppleIncRootCertificate.pem) into my CA store. Despite these steps, the validation still fails at depth 0, indicating that the leaf certificate is not recognized as being issued by a trusted authority. Request for Assistance: Could you please help clarify the following points: Is the certificate chain for receipts (leaf → intermediate → Apple Inc. Root) as expected, or has there been any change in the chain that I should account for? Is there a recommended or updated intermediate certificate I should be using for receipt validation? Are there known issues or recent changes on Apple's side that might cause the leaf certificate to not be recognized as part of a valid chain? Any guidance to resolve this certificate chain validation error would be greatly appreciated.

StoreKit 2 Sandbox Testing - Product not found
Hi, I've been unable to successfully test in the sandbox environment for a StoreKit 2 subscription group and can't seem to find the missing piece. I am calling the following line of code: let products = try await Product.products(for: [subscriptionID]) Expected behavior: The product is returned in the products array. Actual result: The array is empty I have done the following: Successfully tested our logic using a storekit configuration file locally in Xcode. Created the Subscription group in App Store Connect. The subscription product is currently "Waiting for Review", but it is our first so will not be approved without being attached to a distribution build review. Created a Sandbox user account in App Store Connect -> Users -> Sandbox Signed into the sandbox user account in Settings -> Developer -> Sandbox Apple Account Signed the Paid Apps Agreement for our organization A few debugging notes: I deleted all apps before installing from Xcode I've tried both locally and in TestFlight builds Restarted my device Verified productID matches the productID in App Store Connect I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks

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!
