Your app offers a free trial or introductory period but does not make it clear that a payment will be automatically initiated for the next subscription period

Hello! Our app was rejected for the next reason


Guideline 3.1.2 - Business - Payments - Subscriptions


We noticed that one or more of your auto-renewable subscriptions is marketed in a manner that may mislead or confuse users about the subscription terms or pricing.


Specifically, your app offers a free trial or introductory period but does not make it clear that a payment will be automatically initiated for the next subscription period.


Next Steps


To resolve this issue, please revise your auto-renewable subscription purchase flow to clearly indicate how long the free trial lasts and the amount that will be billed after the free trial is over.


But in our app we show subscription text like this:

3 DAYS TRIAL

Then $7.99 per week


And small text below Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at the confirmation of purchase. Subscription automatically renews unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. You can manage and cancel your subscriptions by going to your account settings on the App Store after purchase. Any unused portion of a free trial period, if offered, will be forfeited when the user purchases a subscription to that publication, where applicable

Did anyone face such problem? Could you please tell us what should we change

As long as those are actual buy buttons, that looks ok, I think.


If they aren't, remove the prices and just show the text/terms as required, as a one time alert, maybe, with a button to acknowledge or decline before the user moves on to actual purchase choices.

Appeal pointing out to App Review where this text is located. Sometimes they miss things.
