Could not validate subscriptions API permissions error. I think I need to publish my application in closed beta in the play store to solve this problem. Can I publish it in internal beta or does it have to be closed beta?

I see this error for our production app for iOS,we are using 4.25.6 version of RevenueCat.Error message is: “The device or user is not allowed to make purchase”Does this occur because of parental controls?Our app is +17

I’m trying to follow this documentation https://www.revenuecat.com/docs/apple-app-storeBut it’s not clear to me what I can do in the simulator. To my surprise when I run my code in the simulator, it is able to retrieve all the products from appstore connect. So is the simulator considered the sandbox? I have not install StoreKit Configuration File why does it work? What exactly does StoreKit Configuration File do for the simulator? Do I need a sandbox tester account for the simulator?

Hello fellow developers,If you're like me, you've embraced RevenueCat as a silver bullet for your in-app purchase needs. The proposition is compelling: let RevenueCat handle the complex, ever-changing landscape of app monetization so you can focus on what you do best — building an amazing app. In theory, this should make our lives easier. However, a pattern has emerged that challenges this notion: the API keeps changing, and it's forcing us to constantly revisit and update our integrations.Now, I'm all for improvements and new features. Progress is essential. But let's not lose sight of why we signed up for RevenueCat in the first place. The whole appeal of a wrapper like this is to abstract away complexity, not to introduce a new layer of maintenance.What's the Point of a Wrapper If It Unwraps Itself?The idea behind using a wrapper around Google Play Billing Library (or Apple's equivalent) is that we should be shielded from direct ch

Hello, I use Flutter.I get that there is a CustomerInfo to get the purchase dates of the user.My question is that, How can i retrieved list of all automatic subscription renewal dates of the user ? Thank you.

Hello World! I’m a developer on a React Native mobile app that uses Revenue Cat (v. 5.14.0) to paywall our upgraded features behind a subscription. We have received a report of a user being unable to purchase our subscription from Apple. This user has submitted a video recording of the issue and the purchase process begins as expected and then ends un-expectedly. The app does not crash but premium was not purchased.Our onPurchase implementation looks like this:  (sorry for formatting)```const onPurchase = useCallback(async (subscription: PurchasesPackage | null) => {try {setLoading(true);if (subscription) {const { customerInfo } = await Purchases.purchasePackage(subscription);if (typeof customerInfo.entitlements.active[REV_CAT_ENTITELEMENTS.PREMIUM_PRO] !== "undefined") {Sentry.Native.captureMessage("Premium Pro Purchased");setLoading(false);checkPremium

Is there a method to refund the saved money on each subscription as a percentage? (without having to use metadata, which would entail recalculating everything, for instance, when changing the subscription price from the Play Console).As in the following image from the doc 

We have an app in production using RevenueCat for iOS and Android using the Cordova SDK"cordova-plugin-purchases": "^3.12.0" One of our users is reporting that they’re not able to subscribe. Looking in Sentry, they’re the only one receiving this error. The error is below:  Uncaught (in promise): Object: {"code":3,"message":"The device or user is not allowed to make the purchase.","readableErrorCode":"PurchaseNotAllowedError","readable_error_code":"PurchaseNotAllowedError","underlyingErrorMessage":"Billing is not available in this device. DebugMessage: Google Play In-app Billing API version is less than 3. ErrorCode: BILLING_UNAVAILABLE."}  The problem is, they’re saying that they’re able to subscribe to other apps with that same device, and have tried another subscription since they’ve received this error from our app. Device: SM-G998U (S21 Ultra 5G)Android

Our team is currently integrating the option to cross-grade between monthly ↔ yearly subsctiptions.Most of our Android users are on old Google legacy subcription plans. A few months ago, we updated to RevenueCat Purchases v6 and also created a new “unified” subscription with 2 base plans, one for monthly and one for yearly.So the subcriptions we have look like this:Legacy Subscriptions:app_regular_subscription (for monthly) app_regular_subscription_yearlyNew Subscription (used since we upgraded to RevenueCat v6 a month ago)app_subscription_unified (with 2 base plans: app-subscription-monthly and app-subscription-yearly) While testing different scenarios in Sandbox mode, I found out that there are some unexpected behaviors when crossgrading from app_regular_subscription (legacy - monthly) to

Howdy!My iOS app previously had a single “Unlock Pro” non-consumable iap (not using RevenueCat), and now I’ve setup and implemented subscription plans using RevenueCat.It works great, except migrating the old legacy non-consumable purchase is not working. On the latest version of the iOS SDK, I hit this line when I call syncPurchases.Is it a bug that that code ignores non-consumable purchases? It was introduced by this PR, in December. I downgraded to iOS SDK 4.15.5 (before the release with that code) and syncing the legacy non-consumable purchase seems to have worked as expected

IGNORE: Was issue with simulator needing to be restarted.Im using flutter and just upgrade from flutter_purchase 4.11.1 → 5.5.0 and I’m getting aPlatformException(2, There was a problem with the store., {code: 2, message: There was a problem with the store., readableErrorCode: StoreProblemError, readable_error_code: StoreProblemError, underlyingErrorMessage: Error when fetching products. DebugMessage: An internal error occurred.. ErrorCode: SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE.}, null)When I call:await Purchases.getOfferings()Was working perfectly fine until I upgraded. I only have 1 time purchases configured no subscriptions so as I understand it the google migration stuff doesn’t apply to me. Do I need to add some new config setting in in androidmanifest.xml or build.gradle need something new to support billiing 5.0?Currently in my AndroidManifest.xml I have this:<

Hi!I’m trying to test restoring Purchases in sandbox mode. My app does not identify users, and, by not having a login screen, every one of them has an anonymous App User ID.I purchased a consumable item inside the app, and, as this grants a “benefactor” entitlement, tried to restore the entitlement after uninstalling the app. This did not work.How can I ensure that an anonymous user can restore entitlements that are granted via consumable products? Thanks !Renato

Hello all, I am struggling with the edge cases related to user identification.  I am using unique ID created for every user of our app as an identifier. This works for most use cases but there is situations where this is not enough: User deletes his/her-account and creates new account later:→ The original unique identifier connected to revenuecat is lost since the account creation always creates a new item into the Database.→ We can not login to revenuecat since the original ID is lost Why this is problematic→ We offer introductory offer to our users, and we need to determine if user has previously had subscription (so is still eligible for introductory offer or no). This way we can determine if we should show the discounted price UI or normal price UI. On Android only way to determine this is to see if user had subscriptions before and that can be done querying the purchaserInfo.entitlements.all from reven

Hello,I came back to a Flutter project that was working fine few months ago. I’ve updated the purchases_flutter package and now I can’t fetch the offerings on iOS but works fine on Android.After reading the Why are offerings or products empty? post I’ve noticed that I had a new Paid Applications Agreement so I’ve accepted but after 2 I still getting the error.I’ve checked all the possibles causes mentioned in the post but I don’t understand what the solution 3 means:  If you're trying to fetch products from the App Store, ensure you're not using a StoreKit Configuration file  I don’t know where is the problem. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance! These are the errors I’m receiving:ER

Using Flutter SDK in an app.  SDK is operating and can pull getCustomerInfo() and getOfferings() on an IOS app.From getCustomerInfo(), the managementUrl is null.  Why is this?  How can I get a valid managementUrl?In yesterday’s testing, the managementUrl was valid.      

I have very strange build errors when trying to build android with revenue cat + unity iAP. Please, help, it’s urgent. Exception 1: Warning: Mapping new ns http://schemas.android.com/repository/android/common/02 - Pastebin.com Exception 2: CommandInvokationFailure: Gradle build failed.

I have a non-consumable in app purchase that I no longer offer in the app, so it would be great if I could remove it from the store listing, but I don’t want to remove anything for the users that have already purchased this iAP.Can I safe uncheck “Cleared for Sale” in AppStore Connect? Is it still included in the AppReceipts? If I have the legacy purchase in my entitlements, will the features still be unlocked for these users? Can they still restore purchases?

I’m using the iOS SDK 4.25.2, for some reason when I ran the code today the localizedPriceString returned from the package object has the dollar currency symbol after the price instead of before like it has always been, so my UI is showing “4.99 $” instead of “$4.99” Anybody else having this issue or know what might be causing it, maybe a phone setting? ThanksMark.

On Android, I’m getting the following error when trying to load the subscription products:“There's a problem with your configuration. None of the products registered in the RevenueCat dashboard could be fetched from the Play Store.”I have followed the instructions here.RevenueCat React Native version: 6.6.0 Android Studio targeting SDK 33 All the products are in an “active” status in the Google Play Console. Testing on a real Android device, with a local build. (release builds also seem to have the same issue) The product were imported from Android using the Revenue Cat importer (I did not change the product IDs) The Android package ID is correct.I’m migrating off of react-native-iap, and can confirm that it is able to load the product details without any issue.

I am using RevenueCat for inline purchase and I would like to be able to show the data in the attached image. In particular, I need to show following subscription data:subscription name: Was able to get entitlementInfo.identifier but I need entitlementInfo.description. I could not get that.purchase value: Can't get that from entitlementInfo.subscription period: Can't get that from entitlement info.expirationDate: was able to get it from entitlementInfo.expirationDateIn the entitlementInfo there is a property called productIdentifier which can help me get some of the data I want. But I will need to map productIdentifier to the correct package. Does anyone knows how to do that? 

Hey, I'm using RevenueCat’s SDK on my Flutter app. I want to enable purchases in my app for a physical service. The user can order service, but I want to charge only after an employee of my company accepts the order. If my employee rejects the order, then I don't want to charge the user. Otherwise, I can charge the user upon ordering, but then if my employee rejects it, I'll cancel the purchase and give the user his money back.Are any of the options available? I cannot find it in the docs. I want to charge the user using the App Store and Google Play. 

RevenueCat is pitched as being a good solution for kid-focused apps on the App Store.In my experience, when submitting an app to the App Store Kids category, App Review seems to immediately reject the app ask the following questions about third party analytics and advertising.• Does your app include third-party analytics? If so, please provide details about what data is collected for this purpose.• Does your app include third-party advertising?

If so, for what purposes and where will this information be stored?• Is your app collecting any user or device data for purposes beyond third-party analytics or third-party advertising?

I'm operating an app that provides annual subscription products developed using Flutter. I'm currently working on addressing the Google Play Billing Library 4 version deprecation in this app. As a result, I have upgraded the version of the `purchases_flutter` library from 4.10.2 to 5.6.0. I haven't made any changes to the subscription product settings on Google Play.The issue I'm encountering is that the information for the free trial period of the product (introductoryPrice) is being received as null.The `storeProduct` information received for each version is as follows:Version 4.10.2:```storeProduct => StoreProduct(identifier: us.beentogether.ad.premium, description: , title: Subscription for premium features. (Been Together (Ad)), price: 19000.0, priceString: ₩19,000, currencyCode: KRW, introductoryPrice: IntroductoryPrice(price: 0.0, priceString: ₩0, period: P1W, cycles: 1, periodUnit: PeriodUnit.day, periodNumberOfUnits: 7), discounts: null,

Why the localizedPriceString shows “$9.99” in development, but shows “US$9.99” in production? Is there any way to remove the currency symbols?
