Test Your In-App Purchases (Lesson 6)

In this lesson, we are going to create a sandbox environment where a test user will be used to "pretend" (no real money involved!) to purchase our in-app purchase.

Thank you so much chris!! this is awesome! I spent 5 days trying to implement my own solution... this had me up and running in 2 hours 🤗

[wmblemania]

Thanks for this Chris. It's a very helpful series.

Can this testing be done on virtual environment like AWS device farm for automation testing?

[mEtAlMaNiAc]

Im stuck I logged out my Apple ID on phone and signed in with sandbox but when I try to make a purchase it still shows my real Apple ID

[hongnhannguyen]

Amazing tutorial, thank you very much :)

[КонстантинФилобок]

Hi. Thanks for lesson. I not see information about Restoring Purchases button, but it very important thing. Can you give information how to add Restoring Purchase button with Revenue Cat ?

Another great video! I hope you will do a RevenueCat tutorial for SwiftUI. I already had a free RevenueCat Account before you started the series. So since I can’t set up an account using your link I will try reaching out to revenue cat through Twitter or email directly to let them know that we need a SwiftUI tutorial. Preferably one where you show how to do in-app purchase with multiple non-consumable items that can be purchased through a one time purchase rather than a subscription. Thanks for all you do with these videos!

[uchoangvan]

Thank you very much. How to test it in a production environment?

[rajatbisht]

I want my In App Purchase (renewable subscription) screen to pop up after the onboarding view finishes and want that screen to stay there until a purchase is made. After the purchase, I want my app to delete the purchase viewcontroller and then direct to the ViewController which I assigned as "Main View Controller". What should I do for that? I looked many videos, searched many forums and watched many tutorials but couldn't find one relating with my situation. Your help would be highly appreciated Chris. Please tell me steps to do so. Thanks!

[nat.serrano]

do you have one course for store kit 2.???

[onurisk]

Hey Chris, thank you for nice tutorial. I have few questions if it's possible..
What about the receipt data? I can't find any info about this topic on documents and also in your video..
Regularly we getting receipt data from StoreKit or local device after purchase operation then we can send it to our server to verify it from there with Apple (if we're not using Apple server to server notification), so how we can get receipt data from this library ?
- SwiftyStoreKit immediately returns receipt data with fetch func, is there any func to get it like in SwiftyStoreKit?
- How we will handle interrupted transactions with RC?
Thanks again

Congrats Chris, for this awesome series.
I only have one issue/question:
When I test my subscriptions, and after letting the 5 minutes (x5) go by, the user still has access to the unlocked version of the App. The only way the user gets prompt again with the subscriptions buttons/options is if he restarts the App.
I'm not sure if this is going to happen also after I publish the App on App Store. Will the users be able to use the App if they don't restart the App?
Thanks

Hi, I couldn't help but realize the gap between the material taught in this lesson and the material taught in your SwiftUI beginners tutorial. Is your new series going to go in depth on multi-user coding regarding firebase or do you already have videos that take you through it all start to beginning?

[HanhNguyen-oitl]

Hi Sir, I'm a tester. I'm purchasing some transactions and I'm testing on sandbox environment, so I want to verify these transactions. How do I see? In this lesson, I see you have the "Recent transaction" list. I hope you can help me!

[kaipohl]

Hey Chris, thanks for some great tutorials. Really like the way you are doing this and in particular this in-app tutorial is helping me a lot. One question: Despite being based in the UK and payment settings on my phone pointing to the UK, the price I am shown is in USD. I have prices for all countries in my product so seems strange that it is picking USD for me. Have you seen this? Might be an Apple problem.

[MonetarilyMental]

Hey Chris I'm watching your swift function tutorial so I can finish an assignment using a function to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius and visa versa I wanted to know what IDE you use so I can see all the errors right away before having to run the code like in most playgrounds.

[prabhavmehra]

Hi, great video. But about the subscription part, if a user actually subscribes to the app with their actual credit card credentials in real life, will this expiry after 5 minutes part still be there ( and as seen the subscription ended in 30 so minutes) or will the subscription actually last for a month(considering we are using revenue cat) ? Thanks.

[garikasreekanth]

like this tutorial i integrated in my application and i want to add 3o days free trail after that it should be charged 1month and 1 year can you please tell me how to handle free trails

[bujnyyy]

Anyone struggling with the Invalid Receipt problem? I m checking everything multiple times... it works with storekit configuration via but when I want to do it by sanbox account I keep getting "Invalid Receipt" :xxxx

[MrSojek]

As a wannabe dev is it reasonable to start learning swift for ios14 or rather wait for ios13 to die naturally?
