in app purchase subscriptions

[Monte Goulding]

Hi Ralph

Hmm... we are meant to have both renewing subscriptions and non-renewing subscriptions. Although I think you can get the expiry for non-renewing subscriptions from the receipt I suspect it would be simpler just to code in an expiry from the purchase date which sounds like what you're doing.

It's the renewing subscriptions which it looks to me might be hard to support without implementing an external.

Any light you can shed on issues you encountered would be appreciated though.

Cheers

Monte
