I am preparing the first release of my iOS game, Ippon Battle, and testing it on my own physical devices through TestFlight. I am looking for a supported workaround or further diagnostics for inconsistent product prices, and guidance on whether the same behavior can occur in production. Feedback report: FB25378742 (filed October 31, 2026; currently Open). Apple Developer Support directed me to Feedback Assistant for bug reporting and these forums for technical help. The feedback report includes screenshots and the app-specific identifiers. Environment and observations iPhone 15, iOS 27.0.1 (24A446). App version 1.7.11; raw catalog diagnostics were captured in TestFlight build 41. Two non-consumable products: ipponbattle.fighters5 (Japan: JPY 300) and ipponbattle.story (Japan: JPY 400). The Sandbox account is configured for Japan. The iPhone diagnostic reported Storefront country JPN and currency JPY. Japan prices were independently read-verified through the App Store Connect API on October 21, 2026. I have not changed prices as a troubleshooting step. For each exact product ID, native StoreKit calls returned: Product.products(for:): price = 1.99, priceFormatStyle.currencyCode = USD SKProductsRequest: price = 1.99, priceLocale currency = USD This occurred for BOTH products, despite their different configured Japanese prices. The original in-game shop displayed $1.99 for each. The fighter pack's Apple purchase confirmation sheet showed JPY 300. On a second physical device, an iPad running TestFlight build 44, a screenshot shows the story product at $1.99 in the shop behind Apple's purchase sheet showing JPY 400. The sheet explicitly identifies it as a test purchase with no charge. I did not capture raw storefront/API diagnostics on that iPad, so I am not assuming its internal storefront state was identical to the iPhone trace. Both products were successfully test-purchased in earlier tests. Restoration and ownership after relaunch also worked. The issue is the product metadata price/currency, rather than an inability to complete a purchase. Reproduction procedure Install the app through TestFlight and use the Japan-configured Sandbox account. Request the two product IDs with Product.products(for:) and inspect the returned product IDs, price, priceFormatStyle.currencyCode, and displayPrice alongside the current Storefront. Independently request the same IDs through SKProductsRequest and inspect price and priceLocale. Compare those values with the configured Japan prices and Apple's purchase confirmation sheet. Checks and mitigation Signing out of the Apple account did not resolve the problem. Product data is matched by product ID, not response order. There is no fixed USD fallback or persistent price cache in the app. The TestFlight build does not use a local StoreKit configuration file. These are native API results, not simulated UI test responses. The app refreshes product information when the shop opens and clears old quotes on refresh, failure, or storefront changes. StoreKit 1 is used only to cross-check catalog data. Purchases, transaction verification, and restoration remain on StoreKit 2. As a temporary mitigation for this Japan-only app, prices that cannot be verified as JPN/JPY are hidden. I do not relabel USD amounts as yen, convert them, or substitute hard-coded JPY prices. This prevents the misleading display but does not solve retrieval of the correct catalog prices. Questions Is a mismatch between StoreKit product metadata and the purchase sheet a known TestFlight/Sandbox behavior? Is there any supported way to determine whether production is affected before a first public release? What supported recovery or refresh procedure should I try to retrieve prices consistent with the purchase sheet, beyond re-requesting products and signing out/in? What additional diagnostics, logs, or reproduction details would help the StoreKit team investigate FB25378742? I found a similar report, but I do not know whether it has the same cause. I have not isolated the cause to the catalog service, OS, or account. Thank you.

After a REFUND_REVERSED notification, with no new purchase or renewal, is the transaction’s signedDate in signedTransactionInfo from Get All Subscription Statuses guaranteed to be strictly later than the reversal notification’s outer signedDate? Or can the API return an active subscription with a transaction signedDate equal to or older than the reversal’s timestamp? We’re deciding whether a strictly newer timestamp is a reliable condition for restoring access.

Device: iPhone 11, iOS 26.5 Build: development build, built with Xcode 26.6, iOS SDK 26.5, using the StoreKit sandbox Problem For a non-consumable in-app purchase, Product.displayName and Product.description (StoreKit 2, fetched with Product.products(for:)) always return the English (U.S.) localization, which is the product's primary language, instead of the approved Portuguese (Brazil) one. The App Store purchase sheet shows the English (U.S.) display name too. Setup The product is Approved. Its English (U.S.), Portuguese (Brazil) and Indonesian localizations are all Approved in App Store Connect. The app's App Store localizations include Portuguese (Brazil). The iPhone's preferred languages are Português (Brasil) first, then English (U.S.) and Svenska. The app's language in Settings → Apps → [app] → Language is Português (Brasil). The app's Info.plist declares pt-BR in CFBundleLocalizations. The sandbox tester was newly created in App Store Connect with Brazil as its country or region. Prices come back in BRL, so the Brazil storefront is in use. Questions TN2413 says the language follows the test account's store, and an App Store Commerce Engineer said in thread 756918 that a sandbox account set to the desired country should return that country's language. Our setup matches both, yet we get the primary language. Is localized product metadata expected to be served in the sandbox environment? If so, what else determines the language StoreKit returns, and why would it fall back to the primary language when an approved localization exists for the storefront's default language? How can we verify product localizations before releasing to production?

Environment: Sandbox Bundle ID: com.fosssocial.app Key ID: L7DZYHGM62 Issuer ID: cf1f7bc7-452f-4bb8-a925-31ca29175fac Summary Our In-App Purchase key is accepted by the App Store Server API but rejected by the Advanced Commerce API, using the exact same bearer token. This appears to be an authorization grant that was never applied to the key, rather than a signing or request-format problem on our side. Reproduction — one token, two API families GET /inApps/v1/subscriptions/1 -> 404, errorCode 4040010 (token ACCEPTED, resource simply not found) POST /advancedCommerce/v1/subscription/changeMetadata/1 -> 401, errorCode 4010000 (token REJECTED) Same JWT, same key, issued seconds apart. A 401 on one family and a 404 on the other isolates this to key authorization. On-device symptom A signed SubscriptionCreateRequest passed to StoreKit as advancedCommerceData fails with StoreKitError.unknown / "Unable to Complete Request". No payment sheet appears and no InvalidRequestError is returned, so there is no field-level error to act on. What we have already verified JWS header: alg ES256, kid, typ JWT Claims: iss, iat, aud "advanced-commerce-api", bid, nonce, request No exp claim (per Apple's documentation) The request claim uses standard padded base64, not base64url Key ID and .p8 file confirmed to be a matching pair Key regenerated after receiving the Advanced Commerce access-granted email; the 401 is unchanged AdvancedCommerceProduct(id:) resolves successfully on device, which confirms the PRODUCT has Advanced Commerce access Question Does the In-App Purchase key require a separate authorization for the Advanced Commerce API beyond the product-level access we were granted? If so, how is that applied to an existing key?

We are implementing StoreKit External Purchase Link for an iOS app distributed in the European Union and are trying to determine whether we are missing a configuration step or encountering a StoreKit server-side eligibility issue. The failure is reproducible in a focused native Swift Xcode project that directly calls StoreKit: let eligible = await ExternalPurchaseCustomLink.isEligible The sample contains no Flutter code, PayPal SDK, networking, or application business logic. Configuration we have verified: The Account Holder accepted the StoreKit External Purchase Link Entitlement Addendum for EU Apps. StoreKit External Purchase Link is enabled and shown as Assigned for the App ID. The regenerated Development provisioning profile contains com.apple.developer.storekit.external-purchase-link = true. The installed app's signed entitlements contain the same value. The application-identifier and team-identifier match the intended App ID and team. The compiled Info.plist contains SKExternalPurchaseCustomLinkRegions with all 27 lowercase EU region codes, including "de". Germany is available for the app in App Store Connect. No local StoreKit Configuration file is enabled. Test environment: Physical iPhone running iOS 26.5.2 (23F84) Xcode 26.6 (17F113) Real German Media & Purchases Apple Account German Sandbox Apple Account StoreKit 2 storefront ID 143443, country code DEU StoreKit 1 also reports country code DEU AppStore.canMakePayments = true AppTransaction verifies in the Sandbox environment Clean build and reinstall using the regenerated Development profile Observed result: ExternalPurchaseCustomLink.isEligible = false For diagnostic purposes only, after observing false eligibility, we also requested both token types: ACQUISITION: StoreKitError.notAvailableInStorefront SERVICES: StoreKitError.notAvailableInStorefront A delayed recheck still reports storefront DEU and isEligible=false. Our production flow does not request tokens unless eligibility is true. We found the similar thread "Unable to enable eligibility for External Purchase Link APIs" (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/808349). In that case, the production Media & Purchases account had an unsupported storefront. In our case, both the real Media & Purchases account and the Sandbox account are German, and StoreKit itself reports DEU. We also found "External Purchase in Japan" (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/822618), where an Apple App Store Commerce Engineer requested a Feedback Assistant report with a sysdiagnose and screen recording for isEligible=false. Questions: Should ExternalPurchaseCustomLink.isEligible return true in a developer-signed Sandbox build when the entitlement, compiled Info.plist, German storefront, and account conditions are all satisfied, or is TestFlight/App Store approval required? Is there any additional App Store Connect storefront election, entitlement approval, or server-side activation step required beyond the EU addendum, Assigned capability, signed entitlement, and SKExternalPurchaseCustomLinkRegions? If this configuration is complete, could Apple verify whether eligibility has not propagated correctly for the German Development/StoreKit Sandbox environment, and which diagnostics should be included in a Feedback Assistant report? We have also opened a code-level support request and prepared a minimal native Swift reproduction project. Any guidance from StoreKit engineering would be appreciated.

Hello, I’m investigating a persistent StoreKit 2 restoration issue in My Drop Music. I would appreciate help identifying the cause or collecting more useful diagnostics. Environment: iPhone 17, iOS 26.6.2 TestFlight version 6.22.60 (62260.12) Transaction environment: Sandbox Storefront: USA, currency: USD What works: Product.products(for:) returns both expected non-consumable products. The full-unlock product returns a price of USD 6.99. The free trial product returns a price of 0. Transaction.currentEntitlements returns verified transactions for both products, with no unverified transactions reported. The app recognizes full access. What fails: When I tap “Restore purchases,” AppStore.sync() fails with StoreKitError.unknown. An Apple authentication prompt appears during restoration, but the operation still fails after submitting credentials. Latest diagnostic output: My Drop Music 6.22.60 (62260.12) iOS 26.6.2 Storefront=USA; currency=USD AppStore.sync=failed Kind: StoreKitError.unknown Reference: StoreKit.StoreKitError:2 Before: cached app state: full=true; trialPresent=true After: full=1; trial=1; unverified=0; environment=Environment(rawValue: “Sandbox”) Tests already performed: Reproduced over both Wi-Fi and cellular. Signed out of and back into Media & Purchases. Modified the restoration flow so AppStore.sync() is the first awaited operation after the user taps Restore. Entitlement and storefront diagnostics are collected afterward. The failure persists. Created a separate Sandbox tester. Attempting authentication with that tester produced a system alert saying “Verification Failed — An unknown error occurred.” I have not established whether that is the same underlying issue. I currently have only one iPhone available for testing. Does this pattern suggest any specific account, device, or integration checks? Which device logs or additional error details would help distinguish a Sandbox authentication issue from an app integration issue? I am not assuming this is an Apple bug; I’m trying to determine the cause. Thank you!

Filed as FB24069273. Sandbox POST /inApps/v1/notifications/test consistently returns 404 {"errorCode":4040007} for our app (Apple ID 6765662617), although GET /v1/apps via the App Store Connect API confirms both subscriptionStatusUrl and subscriptionStatusUrlForSandbox are set (V2). With the same JWT, sandbox POST /inApps/v1/notifications/history returns 200 with an empty history — so the key and app resolve correctly. No organic sandbox notifications have ever been delivered, despite active TestFlight sandbox subscription activity. Exhausted remediations (4040007 persists after each, with 30-60+ minute waits): Re-saving the URLs in the App Store Connect UI (two locales) Deleting and re-adding the Sandbox URL PATCH /v1/apps setting the sandbox URL + version V2 twice, with two different valid endpoints (verified by GET each time) Removing the Sandbox URL entirely to rely on the documented Production fallback Deleting BOTH URLs, waiting a full hour, and re-creating them from scratch Testing with both an App Store Connect team key and a freshly generated In-App Purchase key — identical results Endpoints are publicly reachable (HTTPS, TLS 1.2+, port 443). Production App Store Server API returns 401, which we understand is expected for an app not yet released. This looks like a desync between App Store Connect metadata and the notification delivery registry consulted by the test-notification endpoint. Any help would be appreciated.

I have simple non-consumable IAPs set up for an app on macOS. Testing in development with a local .storekit configuration file, everything works as expected. Testing in development with a remote Sandbox, everything also seems to work fine. Product names and prices fetch correctly, I am able to make purchases with a Sandbox account (both US and UK). Once I upload a build into TestFlight, IAPs no longer work. The tester would download the Beta app from TestFlight. They open a license manager and can see all the product names, descriptions and prices are pulled from Apple servers correctly (with the correct local currency as well!). So far so good. When trying to purchase any of the IAP, the following error appears: This is TestFlight so testers are using their real Apple ID. My understanding is that they should continue using their production credentials and a TestFlight Sandbox would be configured behind the scenes automatically. This error always says the users cannot purchase from a US store and must switch to [whatever user’s actual store location is] store. For example, my account is based in the UK, has got a UK billing address and a UK payment method, and the error tells me to switch to the UK store. People in Canada get a similar error - you must switch from the US store to Canadian. The error makes no sense, the account is already in the desired country. Clicking on the “Change Store” button opens the App Store app and displays another error: “Cannot Connect to App Store”. Clicking Retry just results in this errors showing again and again. Clicking OK takes us back to the failed IAP purchase and the final error message appears: “Purchase Error - Unable to Complete Request”. Things I’ve done / checked: IAPs are configured in App Store Connect and available for all regions prices are set for all regions in App Store Connect IAP name and description localisation in English (UK) IAP status is Ready to Submit, I don’t think I can go past that unless I make a production release (which I can’t until we fix the problem) IAP capabilities added in xcode the problem is not account, machine, or location dependent - every beta tester testing my app on TestFlight has the same issue, they each use a different account and have accounts in different countries double checked the App Store account location in the App Store settings - it is definitely matching the store this error is asking to switch to application exits at startup with error 173 if app receipt cannot be found - this one was suggested by the review team, I could not really find any documentation for it review team also suggested I should add com.apple.security.network.client to enable IAP connectivity. I did add that to one of the builds and it did not help. I am not really convinced this is necessary Any suggestions on what to check and what to try? I have run out of ideas.

Hi Apple team, We’re evaluating how we generate appAccountToken for in-app purchases. For privacy and security reasons, rather than using a stable UUID associated with an account across all purchases, we’re considering generating a different opaque value for each purchase/context. Internally, our backend would maintain the mapping needed to associate each value with the correct customer account and, potentially, additional purchase context. In other words, the same customer account may result in different appAccountToken values across separate purchases, while our backend can still deterministically resolve each token to the correct account. We’d like to confirm: Does Apple expect or recommend that appAccountToken remain stable for the same app account across purchases? Are there any concerns with this approach for non-subscription / one-time purchases, assuming we maintain the account association on our backend? Our goal is to avoid exposing a stable account-correlatable identifier while still maintaining reliable server-side attribution. Thanks!

App Store Server Notification returns successful purchase while customer's payment remains Pending We have encountered an edge case with a Non-Renewing Subscription and would appreciate clarification on the expected developer behavior. Steps to reproduce User initiates an in-app purchase using a credit card. The purchase succeeds in the app. Our backend receives an App Store Server Notification V2 (ONE_TIME_CHARGE). We successfully verify the signed JWS transaction. The same transaction is also returned by the App Store Server API. Based on the verified transaction, we grant the user's entitlement. However, on the customer's Apple account: The purchase is shown as Pending in Purchase History / Report a Problem. The customer reports that their credit card has not yet been charged. Question From a developer's perspective, should entitlement be granted immediately after receiving a valid App Store Server Notification and successfully verifying the transaction, even if the customer's purchase is still shown as Pending? Is there any App Store Server API or transaction field that indicates the payment has not yet been settled, allowing developers to delay granting entitlement until the payment is finalized? Or is the expected implementation to grant entitlement upon successful transaction verification and revoke it only if Apple later sends a refund notification? Any clarification on the expected workflow would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. :)

Hello, I’m experiencing an issue with App Store Server Notifications Version 2 in the sandbox environment. Initially, an old sandbox callback URL was configured. I then replaced it with a new callback URL in App Store Connect. The new URL was saved successfully, but newly created sandbox TEST notifications continued to be sent to the old URL. To investigate further, I removed both the production and sandbox callback URLs completely. App Store Connect showed both fields as empty, and the App Store Connect API returned null for the corresponding URL attributes. However, newly created sandbox TEST notifications were still sent to the same old URL. I later used the “Modify an App” API to configure the new production and sandbox callback URLs. The PATCH request returned HTTP 200, and a subsequent GET request confirmed the new URLs and Version 2 settings. Despite this, new sandbox TEST notifications continued to use the old hostname in the HTTP Host header. I confirmed that these are new notifications, not retries: Every test returns a new testNotificationToken. The notificationUUID matches the UUID in that new testNotificationToken. The new callback URL is publicly accessible over HTTPS. The new URL returns HTTP 200 and doesn’t redirect to the old URL. The behavior is therefore: Configure a new URL → notifications still go to the old URL. Remove all configured URLs → notifications still go to the old URL. Update the URLs through the App Store Connect API → notifications still go to the old URL. It appears that the notification delivery service is using a stale callback configuration that isn’t synchronized with App Store Connect. Is there a separate cache or routing configuration for App Store Server Notifications? Is there a way to force the effective callback URL to refresh? Thank you.

Hello, Our first release was rejected under Guideline 2.1(b) because subscriptions were unavailable during App Review. We have been unable to reproduce the issue and would appreciate guidance on further diagnostics. Review environment App version: 1.0.0 (9) Device: iPad Air 11-inch (M3) OS: iPadOS 27.0.1 Internet connection: Active, according to the review message The app integrates StoreKit through RevenueCat and offers three auto-renewable subscriptions. We verified that : The Paid Apps Agreement, banking information, and tax forms are active. All three subscriptions and their subscription group are included in the submission. The subscriptions are available in all countries and regions. The submitted build uses the RevenueCat App Store SDK key, rather than a Test Store key. We tested subscription loading 15 times across two networks, including on iPad. Prices loaded successfully, and we completed a sandbox purchase that unlocked Premium. Additional diagnostics on an iPad Air 11-inch (M3) simulator running iPadOS 26.5 returned all three products both through a direct StoreKit Product.products(for:) request and through RevenueCat. No local StoreKit configuration file was attached. We have not reproduced the exact iPadOS 27.0.1 review environment. The simulator runtime is unavailable through our installed Xcode. The rejection message states that subscriptions were unavailable, but does not identify whether product retrieval failed, the subscription options were missing, or a purchase attempt failed. We are asking App Review for those details and a retry. We were wondering: What additional diagnostics would help investigate product availability failures that occur only during App Review? Are there sandbox account or storefront conditions we should test beyond successful product loading and sandbox purchases? Is there a recommended way to collect useful StoreKit error information from a review session when the failure cannot be reproduced locally? Thanks !

After updating to the public release of Xcode 27.2 (27B52), I'm seeing this warning in Apple's StoreKitTest framework: **File**: `SKTestTransaction.h`, line 34 **Warning**: `'SKPaymentTransactionState' is deprecated: first deprecated in iOS 18.0` The warning recommends using `PurchaseResult` from `Product.purchase(confirmIn:options:)`. Is this a known issue?

I’m testing In-App Purchases in the sandbox on a real iPhone. Auto-renewable subscriptions work correctly with the same app build, bundle ID, and sandbox tester account: com.aifalling.sides.vip.monthly com.aifalling.sides.vip.yearly However, a non-consumable product can’t be purchased: Product ID: com.aifalling.sides.vip.onetime App Store Connect IAP Apple ID: 6794812888 Type: Non-Consumable Status: Ready to Submit Bundle ID: com.aifalling.sides The native StoreKit payment request fails immediately with: The purchase identifier was invalid. The wrapper reports error code 700605. I verified the non-consumable product through the App Store Connect API: Product ID exists and is returned by the API One localization exists: zh-Hans A price schedule is configured, including a base territory and prices Availability includes China (CHN) and many other territories availableInNewTerritories is true I waited more than one hour after the latest metadata changes I completely removed the app, rebuilt/reinstalled the custom development build, and retried The same signed build can successfully purchase the two auto-renewable subscriptions This is the first non-consumable IAP type for this app. The app and IAPs have not been submitted for App Review yet because I’m trying to complete sandbox testing first. Does a non-consumable IAP require any additional App Store Connect setup or association that an auto-renewable subscription doesn’t require for sandbox testing? Is Ready to Submit sufficient for sandbox testing of a non-consumable product in this situation? Any guidance would be appreciated.

I provide a paid feature behind an annual auto-renewable subscription, using StoreKit 2 and Transaction.currentEntitlements. Many of my users work in remote places with no connectivity for days at a time, so I need to know what happens when a device is offline at the moment the current period ends. The renewal succeeds server-side, but the device cannot fetch the updated signed transaction, so the cached transaction still carries the previous expirationDate, now in the past. Does Transaction.currentEntitlements stop returning the subscription once the cached transaction's expiration date has passed, even though the renewal has already succeeded server-side? Is there any built-in tolerance window on the device that keeps the entitlement alive until the next successful sync with the App Store? Does grace period effect the outcome? I want to avoid revoking access from a paying subscriber who happens to be offline when renewal falls due. Many thanks.

I have 2 iOS app products. One can fetch subscription product information normally, while the other fails with the error errorCode 4040004 'App not found' in Sandbox. The App Store Connect backend configuration should be fine, and the subscription code on the app side is the same codebase for both. I really can't find the root cause anymore — if anyone knows what's going on, please point me in the right direction. Also, I'm able to sync/download the StoreKit product configuration file from App Store Connect directly in Xcode, which should also confirm that my App Store Connect backend configuration is correct.

Hello, We are investigating a discrepancy during an auto-renewable subscription test in Apple’s Sandbox. We would appreciate guidance on read-only diagnostics that preserve the original attempt. Environment: A development-signed, unpublished QA app on a physical iPhone, separate from our production app. A monthly auto-renewable subscription. The original purchase flow uses RevenueCat. The Apple purchase sheet displayed “Environment: Sandbox” and indicated that no charge would occur. Observed behavior: After entering the Sandbox account password, the tester reported seeing a purchase-completion message. The app subsequently displayed a cancellation message. We did not capture a verified StoreKit success transaction, so we cannot establish that the purchase actually completed. The dedicated QA RevenueCat project showed no purchases or subscriptions, and no actual purchase webhook arrived. The next day, subscription management for the same Sandbox account showed no subscription for this QA app. Read-only investigation: RevenueCat’s purchase and subscription queries returned HTTP 200 with empty results and no additional page. We updated the same app, retaining its bundle identifier and installation, with a native StoreKit diagnostic. Enumerating StoreKit.Transaction.all completed normally with zero results. There were no unverified results, filtered-out transactions, timeouts, or count limits. This diagnostic did not invoke purchase, synchronization, or transaction-finishing operations. One earlier restore attempt also returned no purchase. We have not made another purchase, cleared purchase history, or recreated the Sandbox account. We understand that an empty result in this app context does not prove that no transaction exists anywhere in Apple’s systems. No transaction identifier or signed transaction has been recovered. Questions: What read-only checks can distinguish an incomplete or cancelled purchase from an account/environment mismatch or a transaction-delivery issue? Is there a supported way to investigate the original attempt without a transaction identifier and without making another purchase? Which existing device logs or diagnostic captures would be useful? If investigation requires identifiers or unredacted diagnostics, what private Apple reporting channel should we use? Our goal is to investigate the original attempt while preserving purchase history and leaving production untouched. Thank you.

Hello everyone! We are currently developing our application with an approved "External Link Account Entitlement." During development, we encountered an issue regarding the display language of the modal window triggered by the ExternalLinkAccount.open() function. It consistently appears in English when installed via Xcode or TestFlight. The physical device is located in Israel, the account is set to the Israel region, and the selected language is Hebrew. We have tried changing the language and region settings on the device, but nothing has changed. Since the application is intended for the Israeli market, it is crucial that the window appears in Hebrew. I have reviewed the relevant forum threads and tried the solution suggested by an Apple engineer, but it did not resolve the issue: External Link Account Modal language My main questions are as follows: Does this modal window support Hebrew? Could the absence of Hebrew be a specific behavior related to using Xcode and TestFlight, while the language will display correctly in the App Store version? Which account settings influence the language of the triggered modal window?

Hello. I have setup a StoreKit testing in the app that was and still is perfectly working on iOS 18. Unfortunately when run on iOS 26 the following error gets printed in the console after calling Transaction.currentEntitlement(for:) method: Failed to verify certificate chain due to client recoverable failure: Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-67843 "“StoreKit Testing in Xcode” certificate is not trusted" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=“StoreKit Testing in Xcode” certificate is not trusted, NSUnderlyingError=0x109de7e10 {Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-67843 "Certificate 0 “StoreKit Testing in Xcode” has errors: Root is not trusted;" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Certificate 0 “StoreKit Testing in Xcode” has errors: Root is not trusted;}}} I'm not seeting any StoreKit Testing certificates in phone's certificate trust settings.
