Why is MissingReceiptFileError thrown as an exception?

Not having receipts is a valid situation (If I use a blank account / device)
To me it seems like this situation should not throw an exception.

 

The fact that RC throws this error caught me a little off guard because

  • the getting started code samples do not handle this error
  • as I was testing on a physical device that had previously been used for testing (and thus did not throw this error) and did not see this error until later.

Hi Guido,

Apple and Google both required to be signed up before making a purchase. MissingReceiptFileError should be an error, not an exception that crashes your app: https://www.revenuecat.com/docs/errors#-missing_receipt_file

The wrapper that I'm using exposes purchase errors as exceptions.
This is not your doing :).
