In App Purchase not working on Xcode 5, iOS 7 simulator

Question

It appears that In App Purchase on the simulator has again been broken. We are able to successfully submit an SKProduct, but we NEVER get the appropriate callback.

Any insight from others would be great...

[[SKPaymentQueue defaultQueue] addTransactionObserver:self];
[[SKPaymentQueue defaultQueue] addPayment:skPayment];

No response from the observer delegate callback.

Answer 1

According to the release notes for Xcode 5.0:

StoreKit (In-App purchases) will not work in the Simulator. 13962338

https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/ios/releasenotes/DeveloperTools/RN-Xcode/index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40001051

The simulator documentation doesn't list storekit as being one of the API's that is not available so maybe it is temporary?

Answer 2

Well its working for iOS 6 but not iOS 7. Xcode 5 supports in App purchases for iOS 6 only. Have a happy coding. :)
