I'm showing custom indicator when user clicks a button to purchase an in-app item.
The custom indicator calls 'beginIgnoringInteractionEvents' on init.
However the apple provided in-app-purchase popup(to show item name/price) is still touchable.
Well, that's all good, but I tried adding another UIAlertview on the process(after user confirms the purchase and apple validates it), because the purchase process takes a while and it just seems boring with only being able to see indicator spinning.
Now the problem is, the UIAlertView I added is not touchable.
How is apple's alertview(in-app-purchase pop-ups) touchable and not mine?
