iOS 'Receipt is invalid' Megathread

If you’re here, it’s probably because you’ve encountered an active issue related to Apple’s receipt verification.RevenueCat relies upon Apple’s `verifyReceipt` endpoint which is currently facing an outage: https://developer.apple.com/system-status/This seems to be affecting sandbox and TestFlight purchases only at this time, although Apple’s status page doesn’t mention it explicitly.Encountering this issue? Post below ⬇️ RevenueCat isn’t able to resolve this at this time from our end, but it may help bring awareness and ease to other developers facing the same issue.Update 2/8/23 19:20 UTC:Customers (and me 😃) reporting things are working as expected again - post below if you’re still having trouble, seems like a slow rollout of a fix from Apple.Update 2/8/23 17:40 UTC:Apple’s reporting the issue is fixed, but we’re still encountering errors. Will provide another update as soon as possible.

React-Native / Expo Go: How to solve `TypeError: null is not an object (evaluating 'RNPurchases.setupPurchases')`

Expo Go doesn’t build native modules, so you may run into this error while trying to run your app with react-native-purchases in Expo Go. In order to use RevenueCat with Expo, you will have to create Development Builds, which can be done either by using EAS, or by making builds that are compatible with Xcode and Android Studio. There are detailed instructions for doing either one in this page:https://docs.expo.dev/development/build/ Easiest way to be able to debug is to just run either of the following:npx expo run:android -dnpx expo run:ios -d We also have a blog post that goes step-by-step into how to make an app with Expo and RevenueCat using EAS: https://www.revenuecat.com/blog/in-app-puchase-expo-managed-workflow/ Let us know if you run into any issues!

Help wanted: StoreKit 2 beta testing

Hi! 👋🏻 We’re in the final stages of our testing of some StoreKit 2 features before fully calling it ready for production, and we’d love your help! Context: Starting with v4.0.0, our SDK already uses StoreKit 2 by default on compatible devices for some features where the StoreKit 1 functionality was problematic, buggy or unreliable, and StoreKit 2 is essentially guaranteed to be an improvement (like checkTrialOrIntroDiscountEligibility). For devices that aren’t compatible with StoreKit 2, it defaults to a StoreKit 1 implementation. However, we haven’t enabled StoreKit 2 by default for making actual purchases. We’ve tested it extensively in Sandbox and StoreKit Test (see our blog post on how we test our SDKs) but we need to see how well StoreKit2 behaves in production before calling it ready. How to help: Our SDK includes an optional flag in the configure method, called useStoreKit2IfAvailable. In order to help, all you need to do is to set that flag to true! With this flag set,

Expo Go & RevenueCat: the very basics

I’m new to React Native, Expo, and RevenueCat so this is likely very basic but can’t find an answer to this anywhere. I’m following this guide.I’m not familiar with the lingo yet but I’m pretty sure I’m using the “managed workflow” version of Expo. In terms of development and testing, the only setup I’m currently familiar with is Expo Go -- in other words, running “npm start” on my dev machine, opening Expo Go on my device and connecting, then updating/editing code. This is the only way I know how to write code for my app. Then when I’m ready for full testing on a device, I run an EAS build and download it to my device, but at this point I have absolutely no more visibility into the code, it’s a complete black box -- it’s just a standalone running app on my phone.My understanding is that the RevenueCat modules do not work with Expo Go. If I try to include them I get a “Invariant Violation: Your JavaScript code tried to access a native module that doesn't exist” error. First question is

SDK 4.17.8: Correct way to @Publish up-to-date subscription status in SwiftUI using Swift concurrency

I have an existing RevenueCat implementation in SwiftUI using the Purchases SDK 3.14.1 in production.I am currently in the process of upgrading to the latest RevenueCat SDK 4.17.8 and am therefore reconsidering my design choices and looking for best practices / guidance on how to implement an ObservableObject for SwiftUI with Swift concurrency (async/await) using the latest RevenueCat SDK.I have a single entitlement (“premium”) in my app for which I want to broadcast its subscription status through a @Published boolean variable in the ObservableObject, similar to the ‘MagicWeatherSwiftUI’ example provided by RevenueCat:@MainActorclass PurchasesManager: NSObject, ObservableObject { static let shared = PurchasesManager() @Published var customerInfo: CustomerInfo? { didSet { subscriptionActive = customerInfo?.entitlements[Constants.RevenueCat.premiumEntitlement]?.isActive == true } } @Published var subscriptionActive = false private override init()

Offerings are empty in developer build, but all new identifiers match up

This seems to be a common ask for help, but Purchases.getOfferings() is not working for me with the error `None of the products registered in the RevenueCat dashboard could be fetched from App Store Connect`. It’s a situation like this other thread (among others), but I think I’ve double-checked all the things to watch out for.Specifically, I had RevenueCat working with my app, which right now is in beta so at most some folks are testing it via Testflight - RevenueCat could retrieve the products then. I then decided to create a dev version of my app using a different bundle ID so that I could simultaneously have the Testflight version and the Expo development build on my phone.Now, Purchases.getOfferings() is working fine on the Testflight version (which has my original bundle ID) but not on my development version (with the new bundle ID). Things I’ve checked:The development build of my app has the new bundle ID I have created a new app in App Store Connect using that new bundle ID I h

Testflight clicking subscriptions or IAPs has long delay

Why is clicking a subscription or IAP so slow on iOS. When I click on a subscription, it can take up to 20 seconds to even show the pop up modal to purchase the subscription. I am testing this on testflight and am wondering if there is a way to make this delay quick? The IAPs and subscription purchases eventually go through, just unacceptably slow. Is this due to Apples test flight servers being slow or something else? Will we see increased performance when we deploy a production build? For context, I am using `purchaseProduct` to buy both IAPs and subs.Thanks

Incorrect Documentation on iOS Subscription Offers

I just wanted to report an incorrect code snippet in the iOS subscription offers documentation. I spent several hours trying to debug why it wasn’t working for me in React Native, so it would be helpful if this could be fixed so it can benefit others in the future. Here is the documentation page in question The error is only present in the React Native code snippet provided:This function is undefined because it does not exist in any version of react-native-purchases. I uncovered this issue when I checked the other tabs of the code-snippet and searched inside the /src/purchases.ts file of the react-native-purchases package, and found that there is no method called “getPaymentDiscount”. This line is supposed to be:const paymentDiscount = await Purchases.getPromotionalOffer(product, product.discounts[0]);Note: getPaymentDiscount is replaced by getPromotionalOffer. I have tested this code and after providing the product and discount from the package, I was successfully able to call:Purchas

Does RevenueCat on iOS cache between app starts?

Does the RevenueCat SDK cache products between app starts? I can’t find anything in the documentation about this. Use case: user opens app while device is offline and hits a paywall. While they won’t be able to proceed with the purchase, it would still be great to display prices.

Sandbox/Testflight do not show eligible introdutory offer

Hi, My app update was recently rejected in the iOS app store due to a mismatch in the introductory offer. Our paywall and product shows a 7 day free trial, however, when the Apple Store confirmation sheet is shown, no introductory trial period is shown. App reviewers are testing the paywall in Sandbox mode. In our live app, which uses the same product and introductory offer, the introductory offer does show the free trial period correctly. What gives? I tried everything from upgrading the SDK, trying other products with introductory offers, new sandbox users, etc. with no success. Is this a bug on Apple’s sandbox system? Testflight with new sandbox user shows no introductory offerProduction shows confirmation screen with free trial

Empty product fetching

Hello everyone!I’m facing an issue that everyone has faced, I can’t fetch any of products(subscription) that is registered on app store connect and even in revenue cat. I had checked all my code, no errors, I even read this article but anything has solved my issue.I’m using React native to code the app, and I don’t know if Purchases.configure is working correctly.I want to know where can I read logs to debug, I set this method : “setLogLevel(Purchases.LOG_LEVEL.DEBUG)” because another method(“setLogenabled” something like this) was deprecated but I don’t know where do I could check for every logs with revenuecat and debug the code.Kinds regards.

Prorationmode IMMEDIATE_AND_CHARGE_FULL_PRICE missing from Flutter SDK

I am not finding the “IMMEDIATE_AND_CHARGE_FULL_PRICE” Proraion-mode option on the Flutter SDK. Is this available on the latest package? We are using the version ^3.10.0 now. We need this Prorationmode but the SDK enum does not have this method. Anyone found a work around?

Problem fetching StoreKit Configuration file offerings on physical device

I’ve set up a synced StoreKit Configuration file for my app. On simulators it fetches all the offerings without a hitch, but when running on device it doesn’t. Is this a known limitation or is there something I’ve missed?

RevenueCat doesn't display subscription while it appears in Google Play

Hello! I have published my subscriptions in Google Play store recently.During the testing - the subscriptions appear correctly in RevenueCat sandbox. The subscription also appears in RevenueCat when I use release version of the application that’s downloaded from the Play Store with my test account.On the 31th of Oct there was a first subscription purchase by a real user and the purchase appears in Google Play. But there is no sign of this purchase in RevenueCat and also no sign of this purchase in my analytics where I log the purchase when it is received from RevenueCat callback in Android. I’m afraid that the user has paid for the subscription and didn’t receive its value due to RevenueCat not receiving the info about the purchase.I’d value some suggestions for investigating the issue and understanding what exactly is happening. Thanks in advance.

Ionic/cordova - There is no singleton instance. Make sure you configure Purchases before trying to get the default instance.

Hello,I am using the ionic sdks. However for some reason i get the error“There is no singleton instance. Make sure you configure Purchases before trying to get the default instance.”I am using the code below and as you can see I am calling Purchases.configureWith before Purchases.getCustomerInfo().

iOS SDK Bug: RCPurchases purchasePackage crash

Hi! We noticed a somewhat rare crash that we’ve only recently been able to reproduce. This affects all iOS SDK version up to 4.17.5 (the latest at the time of writing). Basically we get a hard crash on[[RCPurchases sharedPurchases] purchasePackage...];The call stack simply points to libobjc.A.dylib at objc_msgSend within our method that calls purchasePackage.We haven’t noticed this crash with the restorePurchasesWithCompletion call. The crash doesn’t happen with getOfferingsWithCompletion either. We were finally able to reproduce this crash in the past few days with our TestFlight builds (and ONLY with TestFlight builds). We are calling all 3 methods from a thread that is not the main thread. Since only purchasePackage crashes (and on Android there are no crashes at all on any of the methods when not called from the UI thread), we never considered this to be an issue. However, then we queued the call the the main thread in iOS like this:dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^(void)

iOS RevenueCat SDK returns Anonymous ID after successful purchase and login(Sandbox)

RevenueCat returns an AnonymousID for originalAppUserId instead of the UUID I send it. After the purchase I login to RC with the UUID(RC returns an anonymous ID). Also, at startup after logging in with the UUID in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions, RC returns the same anon ID in the purchases(_ purchases: Purchases, receivedUpdated customerInfo: CustomerInfo) callback.This has a material impact on the use of my multi-user app since I depend on the uuid userId to determine many aspects of the app state.How can I ensure that RC returns the user ID that I gave it?Here’s how I initialize RC at startup in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: let configuration = Configuration.Builder(withAPIKey: "asdf") .with(appUserID: currentClientUser.id) .with(usesStoreKit2IfAvailable: false) .build()Purchases.configure(with: configuration)Purchases.shared.logIn(currentClientUser.id) { (customerInfo, created, error) in os_log("Purchases.shared.logIn customerInfo: %@", log:

Apple rejects subscription because it is not visible

Hi there,we have an one-time IAP in our app. Additionally we want to experiment with short-time (weekly) subscriptions. We thought that would make sense in our case, since some of our users are using the app just 1-2 weeks in a year.So we created and submitted a subsription on the store, but it got rejected, because it is not visible in the app. To attach it to an entitlement it has to be published in the store, which again not possible, because it is not visible. How do we solve this chicken-egg-situation? We have begun the review of your in-app purchases but aren't able to continue because your submitted in-app purchases indicate a change of business model for your app. Specifically, your existing Non-Consumable business model has changed to include a auto-renewable subscription in-app purchase business model type.Therefore, we need to verify the implementation of your submitted in-app purchases in the app to ensure your app, and its in-app purchases, are in compliance with the App S

Android AppInBackground is always true even when app is at foreground

Hi, I’m using the latest version of RevenueCat SDK on Android 5.7.1. I’ve noticed in debug logs that `AppInBackground` is always `true` even through the app is at foreground.This has caused some issues, such as cache not being updated in time. IIUC if app is in background, the SDK only updates cache once a day instead of the default 5 mins. Also, I realise that offerings are not being cached at app launch. When I start the activity with paywall, there’s always a noticeably delay of 2-3s to fetch the offerings. I’m not sure if this is related to `AppInBackground` always being `true`. Here’s a complete list of debug logs when I open the app```2023-02-14 01:15:11.298 30603-30603 [Purchases] - DEBUG com.yygg.note.app D ℹ️ Debug logging enabled2023-02-14 01:15:11.298 30603-30603 [Purchases] - DEBUG com.yygg.note.app D ℹ️ SDK Version - 5.7.12023-02-14 01:15:11.298 30603-30603 [Purchases] - DEBUG com.yygg.note.app D ℹ️ Pa

Unwanted behavior on Android when allowing purchase transfer

Platform: AndroidStore: Google PlayProduct Type: Monthly SubscriptionRevenueCat Purchases Version: com.revenuecat.purchases:purchases:5.1.0 Hi,I am facing a situation that I'm not sure how to properly handle, related to restore behavior. Up until now, our project had the "Restore behavior" option to "Block restores". Now, we want to start allowing users to restore their subscriptions. The problem is that the Android app has unwanted behavior if we turn that "Restore behavior" option to "Transfer purchases" - to quote the documentation, "Due to platform limitations, purchases will be transferred as soon as you call `configure` if a user's purchases are already associated with another app user ID.This may cause unexpected transfers of purchases between app user IDs, especially for apps with optional logins or users with multiple devices. To prevent this behavior, you should wait to call `configure` until you have the appropriate app user ID for your customer." The app has optional login

Cardinal SDK usage in RevenueCat

I have integrated Revenue cat SDK in my android app but when I upload app bundle on Playstore it rejects by saying that you’re using Cardinal Commerce SDK. Does Revenue cat uses Cardinal Commerce SDK?
