Accelerated Subscriptions Introduction
It is important to test your app before publishing it live. With Live App Testing (LAT), a developer can assign testers to test the app in a beta environment. Find steps for how to do this in Get Started with Live App Testing.
In-App Purchases (IAP) are services that the customer can purchase. This way, the app can be made available for free, yet still makes a profit. Currently, there are three types of IAPs;
- Subscriptions
- Entitlements
- Consumables
In the past, when a developer wanted to test a subscription for one of the supported periods (weekly, monthly, yearly, etc.), they would have to wait for the full subscription plan to expire to see if it would renew correctly.
With accelerated subscriptions, this has changed. Now in a matter of minutes, developers can test even a yearly subscription.
For details on the accelerated timelines, see Accelerated Subscriptions Time Table.
