Update timeline

  1. investigating Jul 26, 2026, 11:06 PM UTC

    We are investigating errors with Apple's services. We have enabled a temporary fallback mechanism that should provide limited functionality.

  2. identified Jul 27, 2026, 12:06 AM UTC

    Apple have acknowledged problems with multiple services. We will keep granting short-lived, temporary entitlements until the problem is resolved. Once the error rate returns to normal, we will disable this mitigation and revalidate the affected purchases.

  3. monitoring Jul 27, 2026, 12:32 AM UTC

    We're monitoring the Receipt Server for recovery Because we're unable to validate new purchases with the store, we're granting new users a short-term entitlement (at most 24 hours). This prevents customers from being denied access during exceptional situations, such as partial app store outages After connectivity is restored, if validation succeeds, expect a regular initial purchase. If validation fails, the temporary entitlements will expire

  4. monitoring Jul 27, 2026, 12:41 AM UTC

    Apple's Receipt Server is back up We're replaying purchases Temporary entitlements will either turn into 'real' purchases, or will expire, and related webhook and intergation events for the duration of the outage will start coming through
