Consumable In-App Purchase and Restore Button

The Restore IAP button is required to all apps now, and if they don't have Apple will reject the app.

The questions is, what about consumable items? It seems logical that you can't restore them, since the user will spend the extra coins on the game and that's it.

I'm storing the coins using NSUserDefaults, so if the user deletes the app he will lose everything, unless he syncs through iTunes. iCloud backup to sync devices will be added in a future update, but I guess this has nothing to do with the question, that is...

Consumable IAP can/must be restored?

I'm just afraid of getting a rejection and delay even more my new game.

Thanks,

  • Consumables are not to be restored, just as you were reasoning in your original question.
