I am currently testing my in app subscription via sandbox. I am able to make the purchase and verify it, but it will not auto renew. The sandbox account is flagged as being subscribed, so it can't be purchased again, but I don't actually get the auto renewal.
I did notice that randomly on app boot up, I'll get a bunch of the backlogged auto renewals come in, but they are never actually sent to me when the 3 minute expiration is finished.
This is on macOS, so I am not able to actually look at and manage the sandbox subscriptions. It seems like that's only a thing for iOS. Is this just a behavior with the sandbox environment or will this behavior also happen with legitimate App Store?
The code I use is below:
@MainActor
func updateCustomerProductStatus() async {
var purchasedSubscriptions: [Product] = []
for await result in Transaction.currentEntitlements {
do {
let transaction = try checkVerified(result)
switch transaction.productType {
case .autoRenewable:
if let subscription = subscriptions.first(where: { $0.id == transaction.productID}) {
purchasedSubscriptions.append(subscription)
}
default:
break
}
} catch {
print("catching \(error)")
}
}
init() {
subscriptions = []
updateListenerTask = listenForTransactions()
Task {
await requestProducts()
await updateCustomerProductStatus()
}
}
deinit {
updateListenerTask?.cancel()
}
func listenForTransactions() -> Task<Void, Error> {
return Task.detached {
// Iterate through any transactions that don't come from a direct call to `purchase()`.
for await result in Transaction.updates {
do {
let transaction = try self.checkVerified(result)
// Deliver products to the user.
await self.updateCustomerProductStatus()
// Always finish a transaction.
await transaction.finish()
} catch {
// StoreKit has a transaction that fails verification. Don't deliver content to the user.
print("Transaction failed verification.")
}
}
}
}
