After a much anticipated arrival, I think many of you will be happy to hear that IAP has been released to all PRO and above users. You can read more about how to use the blocks here ! [Screen Shot 2021-12-10 at 7.24.37 AM]

[image] muneer: therefore you need to retrieve such information from the Store directly to know if the subscription is cancelled and if the Store has automatically renewed the subscription. Can you or anyone provide the blocks to do this? Honestly I spent the whole weekend trying to figure th…

A good catch here. You are trying to use the Purchase History or Get Most Recent Active purchase and both gives you essential information and the receipt ID which you should query the AppStore and get the details of the purchase. As of now, Thunkable does not have a block to retrieve that and I bel…

[image] muneer: receipt ID which you should query the AppStore and get the details of the purchase. How do I do this with Thunkable blocks? [image] muneer: Apple/Google recommends that this should be done by a server service outside of the app. How do I do this with Thunkable blocks? …

But, as @muneer also kindly pointed out, the stores allow for the user to cancel the subscription, which then doesn’t autom…

[image] ethosworkfi: but if the user then cancelled the subscription I must say that this situation is not that bad. If you recorded the subscription in your own database (Firebase for example) then you will continue giving premium access to the user for the length of the subscription whether…

Got it, thanks! But the real problem for me is that I haven’t never created such cloud functions, nor operated with Node.js. Well, of course one can always learn. :slight_smile: But, may I just ask to clarify–have you, indeed, built such a system for Thunkable subscriptions? Or are you talking just…

[image] ethosworkfi: built such a system for Thunkable subscriptions? As I have said in my last post YES. I was saving subscriptions/ one time payments in Firebase so I used Firebase Functions to inquire from the Play Store. You will need to include the relevant libraries (SDK) Provide your…
