Does Thunkable have an interface for SDKs (Software Development Kits)?

Does this require two separate files?  
1 x preview, 1 x full version, which can only be downloaded after payment?  
Can this be implemented in the App Store?  
Who has experience with this?

I’m not sure I understood your question but if you want to display contents in your app based on subscription or purchase then **YES**. This option is available  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/0/c/0c081a7fb3bfce0d89e38386c42353b8781b8e09.png)

You can use the `In-App Purchase` component and display certain contents in your app based on the status of the user (free or paid)

Thanks for the hint. I found the following about it:

> **[In-App Purchase](https://docs.thunkable.com/in-app-purchase)**
>
> Offer extra content and features your users can purchase — including digital goods, subscriptions, and premium content — directly within your app.

Is there a more detailed video guide with examples?  
Is the lock symbol automatically generated for the button?

Or do you have to create a part of the pages (with a fee with a lock) and a part of the times (free of charge without a lock) yourself and create other page links for them?  
Unfortunately, I can’t find anything on how this can be implemented with Thunkable.

I think @jared made some tutorials but not sure.

Somehow I can’t get any further. Can’t find complete guides and examples for in-app purchases and thunkable.

Who can help me?

A video tutorial with step-by-step instructions –  
both with examples for in-app purchases (subscriptions) in the programming, as well as the setup at Apple Connect with StoreKit and Sandbox for testing would be really helpful and good!
