I co-host a weekly development podcast, Merge Conflict, about technology and recently covered IAP and this library: Merge Conflict 28: Demystifying In-App Purchases
Version 4.X updates to the new Android billing client. This means there are few important changes:
1.) You must acknowledge all purchases within 3 days, by calling AcknowledgePurchaseAsync
or the Consume API if it a consumable.
2.) You must hanle Pending Transactions from outside of you app. See docs from Google
- If the result of PurchaseAsync is PurchaseState.PaymentPending, store the order details locally and inform the user that they will have access to the product when the payment completes
- When the user starts the app (and/or visits a particular page), if the stored PurchaseState is PaymentPending, call GetPurchasesAsync and query the result for a purchase that matches the stored purchase.
- If the PurchaseState for this purchase is still PaymentPending, show the same no-access message
- If the PurchaseState is Purchased, call ConsumePurchaseAsync or AcknowledgePurchaseAsync, depending on the product type
I highly recommend reading the entire Google Play Billing System docs.
