Android - Purchased subscription not acknowledged

[Ryner47]

Observed behavior

Hello, I have implemented this plugin in my Android app created with Capacitor to make a subscription purchase available. The problem is that after the subscription purchase, Google asks me via email to confirm the purchase by opening the app again, but despite 'transaction.verify()' is called the subscription "acknowledged" remain 'false'. Therefore the subscription is not recognized and a refund is issued.

Could you help me figure out if this is a known issue?

Could it be that the "acknowledged" mechanism doesn't work in the test environment?

Thanks

Expected behavior

After completed purchase a subscription "acknowledged" state should become 'true'

System Info

• Plugin version: 13.8.3
• Platform: Android
• Device OS version: 10
• Capacitor info @capacitor/cli: 5.2.2 @capacitor/android: 5.2.2 @capacitor/core: 5.2.2

Code

this.store.register({
    id: SUB_PREMIUM,
    type: CdvPurchase.ProductType.PAID_SUBSCRIPTION,
    platform: CdvPurchase.Platform.GOOGLE_PLAY,
});
if (this.store.isReady) {
    await this.store.update();
} else {
    await this.store.initialize();
}
this.store
.when()
.productUpdated((product: any) => {})
.approved((transaction: any) => {
    transaction.products.forEach((product: any) => {
        if (this.store.owned(product)) {
            if (product.id === SUB_PREMIUM) {
                console.log('premium enabled');
            } else {
                console.log('premium disabled');
            }
        }
    });
    return transaction.verify();
})
.verified(receipt: any) => {
    receipt.finish();
})
.receiptUpdated((receipt) => {});

Hello Ryner, it looks like you are using the old version of the plugin (which uses Google's old library (version 4), they don't accept new binaries with it. "IAPProduct" is a old typing name.

Make sure you are using cordova-plugin-purchase version 13 directly, the documentation is in the README of the project.

Hello @j3k0 , sorry I didn't provided complete information, I've edited the main post above with all info.

I have the latest version of this plugin.

Any help will be appreciated.

Now it seems to work correctly

Hi @Ryner47, did you change anything before it started working?

I have the same problem. After ordering a subscription:

1. order() is successful, no error
2. then receiptUpdated() is fired

.receiptUpdated(receipt => {
    console.log('RECEIPT UPDATED');
    receipt.transactions.forEach(transaction => {
      transaction.products.forEach(trProduct => {
        console.log(`product owned: ${trProduct.id}`);
      });
    });
  })

and correct product id is logged

3. then approved() is fired, where transaction.state === 'approved'
4. and that's it, verified() is not fired, nothing else happens

Few minutes later I get the same email from google, that purchase was cancelled. When I restart the app even before receiving this email, this subscription is not owned.

Also using v13, code works on ios. Will try to get better logs later.

Can the issue be caused by iaptic validator (or misconfiguration there)?

Not sure how the error from FirebasePlugin is connected to purchase not being acknowledged, but seems suspicious. Any hints @j3k0 ?

UPDATE: I commented out iaptic validator and it started working. CdvPurchase: onAcknowledgePurchaseResponse() -> Success

Now the fun part. I want to still use iaptic, but I don't have access to the current account (long story). I created new one which I have to properly configure, but here is the question: is it safe to switch those accounts? Will it affect somehow the users of my app? For example will the app still see the subscriptions that they ordered when app had previous iaptic account (and also v11 of the plugin)?
