Cancel auto-renewal subscriptions with Swift

Question

I want to create a button where a user can cancel a auto-renewal subscription (or get redirected to App Store).

Is that possible without the user having to go through the whole purchase process first? If it is, how would you go about doing it?

Solution 1

From the Apple In-App Purchase Programming Guide -

Rather than needing to code your own subscription management UI, your app can open the following URL:

https://buy.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/manageSubscriptions Opening this URL launches iTunes or iTunes Store, and then displays the Manage Subscription page.

So, simply create a button that launches that URL.

UIApplication.shared.openURL(URL(string: "https://buy.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/manageSubscriptions")!)

The correct URL is now https://apps.apple.com/account/subscriptions according to Apple's Handling Subscriptions Billing Documentation.

So just use:

UIApplication.shared.open(URL(string: "https://apps.apple.com/account/subscriptions")!)

Solution 3

As mentioned in the documentation: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/StoreKitGuide/Chapters/Subscriptions.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40008267-CH7-SW19

So for Swift 3/4 just use this

UIApplication.shared.openURL(URL(string: "https://buy.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/manageSubscriptions")!)
