Is restore button necessary for Auto-renewable subscriptions?

Question

Exactly the same question as this one:

I understand that restore button is necessary so when user upgrades the phone, the user is able to get back the contents/services subscribed earlier. In our application we require users to login. Once they login, they have to subscribe to use the services of the application. From user's credentials we are keeping track that which users are still subscribed to our application. So when user changes the phone and logs in with his/her credentials there is no need for a restore button as we will verify at the time of login if this user is subscribed to our services or not.

From the forums and developer documents, its evident that I have to add a restore button but whats the sense here and where should I place the restore button as when the user logs in to a new device, he/she is already able to use the app with subscription? Thanks.

Answer 1

We went for auto-renewable subscriptions in our application WITHOUT restore button and the application got accepted. All we did was, we presented a good case in the Review Notes specifying why we don't need a restore button whilst submitting the application and that was it.

Answer 2

1. If you are using Auto-renewing subscription you don't keep the "Restore" button Apple will reject your application .
2. If User has purchased a product .Then that purchase is made to the apple id not by the user id.
3. After login you can keep the Restore button.
