I've run into Guideline 3.1.1 in an app which I want to have as a one-time purchase, bring your own key, AI app.
Pay once for the app.
Insert your OpenAI/Claude key.
Do stuff with AI.
I have run into Guideline 3.1.1
Does anyone have any example of having an intention similar to what I had above and how you successfully reworked your business model to comply with 3.1.1?
Guideline 3.1.1 - Business - Payments - In-App Purchase
The app unlocks or enables additional functionality with mechanisms other than in-app purchase, which is not appropriate.
Specifically, the app uses API keys to unlock or enable functionality.
Next Steps
It would be appropriate to remove these features from the app and any other feature that unlocks or enables functionality with mechanisms other than the App Store.
You may also consider making this unlocked content available to your users as in-app purchases.
