What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

An Objective-C helper library for Apple in-app purchases built on StoreKit, using ARC and blocks for requesting products, purchasing, and receipt validation. The repository is no longer maintained and recommends SwiftyStoreKit as a replacement.

Use cases

  • add in-app purchases to an iOS app
  • fetch product prices and localized titles from the App Store
  • purchase products with StoreKit blocks-based API
  • validate App Store receipts on device
  • check and restore previous purchases
  • manage saved purchased product identifiers

When to choose

  • maintaining a legacy Objective-C iOS app already using IAPHelper
  • needing a simple blocks-based StoreKit wrapper for iOS 5+

When to avoid

  • starting a new iOS project (use SwiftyStoreKit or StoreKit 2)
  • needing maintained or updated in-app purchase support
  • requiring Swift or modern Apple payment APIs
