Test your app before publishing it live. With Live App Testing (LAT), you can assign testers to test the app in a beta environment. For steps, see Get Started with Live App Testing. In-App Purchases (IAP) let customers buy services within your app. This way, you can offer the app for free and still earn revenue. Currently, there are three types of IAPs:
  • Subscriptions
  • Entitlements
  • Consumables
Previously, to test a subscription for a supported period (such as weekly, monthly, or annually), you’d have to wait for the full plan to expire. This was the only way to verify correct renewal. With accelerated subscriptions, this has changed. Now in a matter of minutes, you can test even an annual subscription. Accelerated timelines for subscriptions showing compressed test periods for weekly, monthly, and annual plans.

Accelerated subscriptions removes the bottleneck in development

For details on the accelerated timelines, see Accelerated Subscriptions Time Table.
