In-app purchase promo code.

I'm unable to use In-app purchase promo code (https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=10282016a).

I have created a promo code in iTunes connect for In-app purchase.

But when I use this code in iPhone (AppStore -> Redeem -> Entered code manually), I'm getting an error message You must redeem this code on Apple TV. I'm not sure why this error came, as my app is an iPhone application. Am I did anything wrong ? Please help me to resolve this.

UPDATE: I contacted dev support and they are aware of the issue. Here is Apple's response:


I understand that an error is displayed when attempting to redeem promo codes for an in-app purchase. We are aware that this issue is affecting a number of users and our engineers are working diligently to find a resolution. I apologize for any inconvenience it may have caused.

Hi,


The same here. iOS only app. My user got the same message (in french though cause we're french : Vous devez utiliser ce code sur l'Apple TV").

I can't offer IAP anymore.


@baxiamashia : will you have an answer from Apple support when they'll fix it ?

Looks like this issue is fixed, at least for me, since about Aug 15th 2018.
