Apple has reminded developers that StoreKit 2 is now available as part of iOS 15 and the other newly updated Apple platforms. StoreKit 2 improves the way in-app purchases and subscriptions work in apps. Apple has also updated the App Store Server API and added real-time notifications for developers to see purchases as they happen.
StoreKit 2 uses the latest enhancements to the Swift programming language and introduces new APIs that ensure developers get the most up-to-date information about their app. StoreKit 2 also makes purchases more secure by cryptographically signing them. Users will love that StoreKit 2 allows them to easily request refunds and manage their individual app subscriptions.
Apple’s new App Store server API helps developers resolve purchase issues. Developers can see a history of a user’s in-app purchases and see the status of their subscription.
Lastly, App Store server notifications let developers get subscription expiration, offer redemption, and refund notifications.
