RNIap.requestPurchase is not responding in iOS

[emreakbaba]

Version of react-native-iap

4.4.8

Version of react-native

0.61.5

Platforms you faced the error (IOS or Android or both?)

iOS

Expected behavior

await RNIap.requestPurchase(sku, false)
console.log('REQUEST OVER') 

REQUEST OVER to be printed.

Actual behavior

In device i use sandbox tester account, it is responding and working well. But with any other devices or simulator it is not responding or resolving. This is vital since during app review, Apple keep rejecting my application with reason of tapping in BUY is not responding.

There is no problem about RNIap.getProducts(itemSkus)

Tested environment (Emulator? Real Device?)

Real Device and Simulator

Steps to reproduce the behavior

 async componentDidMount() {
    RNIap.getProducts(itemSkus)
      .then((products) => {
        this.setState({ products: products })
      })
      .catch((error) => {
        console.log(error.message)
      })
  }
requestPurchase = async (sku) => {
    try {
      await RNIap.requestPurchase(sku, false)
      console.log('REQUESTED OVER')
    } catch (err) {
      console.warn(err.code, err.message)
    }
}

render() {
 const { products } = this.state
 return (
  <View>
    {products.map((p, i) => { return (
       <TouchableWithoutFeedback onPress={() => this.requestPurchase(p.productId)}>
          <Text> BUY </Text>
       </TouchableWithoutFeedback> ) })}
 </View>)

Same here, however it seems to work on Android.

I may have fixed it by adding

const result = await RNIap.initConnection();
await RNIap.consumeAllItemsAndroid();
console.log('result', result);

At the begining of componentDidMount ;

Let me know if that help

@hyochan Have you found a resolution to this? I am also experiencing the same problem in iOS. Its extremely frustrating, and I can't get past app review because calling RNIap.requestPurchase doesn't respond with the alert either promoting the user to agree to the subscription terms or confirming that the subscription is already active. If I force close the app and try it again, sometimes it works. I don't know if there is a problem with the sandbox or this library.

@smarttouchtechnology Have you called initConnection? This is needed from 4.4.5.

[Panda313]

It may be hard for @smarttouchtechnology to read the answer below that "solve" the "problem" ;)

I had the same problem and @Panda313 suggestion to add await RNIap.initConnection() in componentDidMount worked.
Too bad this is not better documented...

[Oguntoye]

@Panda313 ... You just saved me1 week sleepless night of apple rejection

[danleveille]

Could someone add this to the documentation so more people don't run into this issue? I'm not sure the best way to add it.

EDIT: Added here. #1088.

Feel free to review (I'm not confident I did it right.)

For iOS, I didn't have any response from requestSubscription. I tried adding await RNIap.initConnection(); in front of RNIap.requestSubscription and it worked for me. Now I am receiving purchase objects in listeners in the root of the app. And it also proceeds further down the code after it resolves either in error or in successful response.

I am experiencing this right now but the scenario is . . I tried purchasing in a different account in my app when there is an active subscription so calling requestPurchase when there is active subscription seems an issue. I am expecting to have a return like an error.

Hi... I have the same problem with apple pay... yesterday worked really nice got everything to work from fetching the products to getting the purchase history and validating the latest receipt and today for some kind of reason won't appear any more and there is no error or anything when calling requestPurchase..

RNIap.requestPurchase(resp[0].productId)
.then((purchase: any) => {
     alert(1);
     console.log({purchase});
})
   .catch((errorPurchase: any) => {
     alert(2);
     console.log({errorPurchase});
});

The then function never gets executed but also the catch never does... Any idea why?
