I’m testing subscriptions with RevenueCat. I want to simulate a user canceling their subscription and verify that RevenueCat updates the entitlement correctly. I’m using TestFlight. I can’t find the subscription under Settings → Subscriptions or the Sandbox account settings to cancel it manually.
Is there currently a supported way to cancel a sandbox subscription, or is waiting for it to expire the only option
Hey
If you’re testing with a Sandbox Apple Account, you can manually disable auto renewal for a subscription by going to:
Settings → Developer → Sandbox Apple Account → Manage → Subscriptions
From there, select the subscription and tap Cancel Subscription. Apple documents this testing flow here:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/testing-disabling-auto-renew
If you’re testing through TestFlight without a Sandbox Apple Account (for example, using your regular Apple ID), there isn’t a supported way to manually cancel the sandbox subscription. In that case, you’ll need to wait for the accelerated TestFlight sandbox subscription to expire automatically after its test renewals.
RevenueCat also has documentation on Apple sandbox testing here:
