Implementing In-App Purchases Using iOS 10's SKStoreProductRequest
Summary This solution provides a basic implementation of in-app purchases using the InAppPurchaser class. The InAppPurchaser class handles all the necessary steps for purchasing products, restoring transactions, and notifying the delegate of purchase completion.
Usage To use this solution, follow these steps:
Create an InAppPurchaser instance in your AppDelegate.m file to restore any incomplete transactions. In your ViewController, call the purchaseProductWithProductIdentifier:quantity: method on an InAppPurchaser instance to initiate a purchase. The delegate methods (InAppPurchaserHasCompletedTransactionUnsuccessfully:productID:error: and InAppPurchaserHasCompletedTransactionSuccessfully:productID) will be called when the purchase is completed or failed.
