restore in app purchase

Postby Diego » Thu Jun 28, 2012 1:39 am

Hello,
I submitted for the first time an update of an app with in app purchase option. If you press the button to purchase and you already purchased it you're not charged, but...

We found that while your app offers In-App Purchase(s) that can be restored, it does not include the required "Restore" feature to allow users to restore the previously purchased In-App Purchase(s), as specified in Restoring Transactions section of the In-App Purchase Programming Guide:

"...if your application supports product types that must be restorable, you must include an interface that allows users to restore these purchases. This interface allows a user to add the product to other devices or, if the original device was wiped, to restore the transaction on the original device."

To restore previously purchased In-App Purchase products, it would be appropriate to provide a "Restore" button and initiate the restore process when the "Restore" button is tapped by the user.

For more information about restoring transactions and verifying store receipt, please refer to the In-App Purchase Programming Guide.


what should I do? another button pointing to the same function but named 'restore'.....? or maybe it's a feature not included on NK?

thank you

Sorry, I didn't realize you already posted about this problem: http://www.nimblekit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3887
This is a big pain that will stop approval for all applications with in app made by NK.

I emailed Sunny yesterday. This problem means you can't update any app that uses NKStore, and if you submit a new one you can't update it.

I found more samples but my skills about obj c are null...

I hope Apple won't review the old apps with in app purchase. Lately the press pushed Apple to resolve the problem about the easy purchases made by kids

Does the extra content loaded remotely after the user pays for the upgrade or it is inside the bundle and activated to the user? This seems a problem for remote content

mine too, in fact it's like purchase again but this method doesn't 'scare' users since there's any reference to price, also on itunes alert dialog out of NK, and it's required
