Apple not renewing subscription in Sandbox after initial Purchase

We tried purchasing auto-renew subscription with and without free trial. Some times renewal does not happen in Sandbox after 5 mins. We checked the latest receipt even after 2-3 days, still there was no receipt. What can be the reason?

The sandbox should issue 5 renewals of an autorenewabe subscription to any particular test user and then stop issuing any further autorenewals to that test user.

Yeah, I too noticed this issue. In sandbox some times 5 auto-renewals are not happening for that subscription. Is there any limit for renewals in sandbox per week/day?


Also, i noticed this issue after adding new product in same subscription group. auto-renewing for new product is successful.


In high level, i have 2 products in same subscription group.

1. Monthly renewal

2. YEARLY renewal.


i) Monthly renewal auto-recurring is not happening every 5 mins.

ii) YEARLY renewal auto-recurring is happening every 60 mins for 5 times.

Can confirm -- sandbox behavior is extremely erratic and unreliable.
Some days it works, some days it doesn't.
Some days it will auto-renew, some days it doesn't.
  • Yup. I'm getting this too. There appears to be some inconsistency with regards to the Sandbox auto-renewing quantities - sometimes none, sometimes a few.

    Glad I came here see if it wasn't just me. Only lost a few hours on rebuilding and code editing and general hair-pulling...
