Hi,

I want to one thing about in-app purchase that how it will handle price? Can we setup different prices for different countries?. How it will cut the price?.

Thanks.

Excellent post, very helpful. The only missing part is creating and adding the transaction observer to SKPaymentQueue.

[code]
storeObserver = [[CustomStoreObserver alloc] init];
[[SKPaymentQueue defaultQueue] addTransactionObserver:storeObserver];
[/code]

Hi, it is small for design issues, but I’ve to say that we are planning to make this particular page more like a blog and leave it grow.

I was working on the 2nd part (4.2.- Buy a in-app purchase.) and I was not seeing any of the delegate methods getting called (eg: paymentQueue updatedTransactions, failedTransaction, restoreTransaction, completeTransaction) and then I realized that it was because I had not set anything up to be a transaction observer. My main view class is what I had set to be both a SKProductsRequestDelegate and a SKPaymentTransactionObserver, so I just added the following line to my initialization sequence and, voila, I was seeing the delegate methods getting called once I initiated the payment.

[[SKPaymentQueue defaultQueue] addTransactionObserver:self];

Thanks for the tutorial.

In case it wasn’t clear, what I mean by “productid” is the value for productid that you see in iTunes Connect, *not* the literal string ‘productid’. Eg: my test product id is “i1234″, so the line that worked for me was

initWithProductIdentifiers: [NSSet setWithObject: @"i1234"]];

I *finally* got the first part to work (getting a list of products back).

It wasn’t working when I used

initWithProductIdentifiers: [NSSet setWithObject: @"com.yourcompany.product "]];

I tried every permutation of “com.yourcompany.product” and “productid” and nothing worked. Finally, I got rid of the “com.yourcompany.product” part and just used the “productid” part

initWithProductIdentifiers: [NSSet setWithObject: @"productid"]];

It’s been a very frustrating day, but now I’m happier.

> I have question, I have my app that is .99 $. do I need some code in my app to be able to charge for it. do I need the StoreKit on my app and aditional code?

You only need to do this stuff if you will be charging for other things (besides the purchase of your app) from within your app.

If you simply want people to have to buy your app (in your case, for $0.99), then you don’t have to deal with this stuff. You do, however, have to configure your app for sale in iTunes Connect.

Great tutorial! What would you change to use downloadable content?

Hi,

In iTunes Connect, in the section “Manage Your In App Purchases” select your App and then select your “In App Purchase” and Check if “Cleared for Sale” is YES. If not, you can select it when you edit this in-app purchase.

Regards.

I followed your steps word for word. but when i query for the products, the size (count) of response.products is always zero!

I copied and pasted the product ID’s from from iTunes connect into my app, and still nothing.. I created the test user, nothing..

is there anything else that I forgot?
