App Store Commerce Configuration and Release Verification
App Store Connect is the production authority for products, offers, localized metadata, Family Sharing, grace period, and review behavior. StoreKit/Termind.storekit is a local development and test fixture; editing it does not update the storefront. Do not add a demo or App Review entitlement override. Exercise purchases with the local configuration, Sandbox, or Apple's review environment.

Both products enable Family Sharing. The annual product belongs to one Termind Pro subscription group, bills yearly, and has a free introductory offer currently configured for two weeks. Production Billing Grace Period is an App Store Connect setting: retain the intended 16-day, paid-to-paid-only policy and verify it in Sandbox before relying on it. The app obtains price, billing period, introductory eligibility, duration, and subscription state from StoreKit; never hard-code storefront display values into access logic or UI.
Entitlement expectations
A verified, non-revoked lifetime purchase wins over annual state.
A verified annual introductory trial, subscribed period, or grace period grants Pro. Cancellation retains access through the verified expiration date.
Billing retry without grace, expiration, upgrade-away, refund, revocation, or failed verification does not grant access.
Product metadata/catalog failure must not remove already verified access. The controller refreshes entitlements independently, observes Transaction.updates, and handles deferred Ask to Buy completion.
Protected features consult the current entitlement immediately. Free access still includes Mac Workspace composition, broadcast, batch opening, multi-Host snippets, and local templates; template iCloud synchronization remains Pro.
Retired standalone trials are not an access source.
Keep runtime access behavior in the shared commerce controller and domain types. The local StoreKit file may mirror production configuration for testing, but it is not permission to infer the production state.
Release verification
Run StoreKitTrialTests and the relevant SKTestSession/Pro access suites. Verify purchase, introductory trial, renewal, cancellation, restore, expiration, billing retry, paid-to-paid grace, refund, revocation, Ask to Buy, deferred completion, and transaction updates.
With a new Sandbox account, verify the localized annual and lifetime product names, descriptions, prices, annual period, introductory eligibility/duration, and Family Sharing. Existing accounts may already have consumed introductory eligibility.
Verify the same Apple-account entitlement on Mac, iPhone, and iPad, then verify Family Sharing separately. Confirm lifetime precedence and cancellation-through-expiry behavior.
Apply all English, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese metadata changes in App Store Connect. Coordinate storefront text with website and free-Workspace messaging while preserving the product IDs, prices, subscription group, offer, and grace policy.
Inspect native paywalls and subscription-management flows using StoreKit-provided metadata. Verify that metadata/network failure is recoverable and does not downgrade a verified user.
Record App Store Connect/Sandbox evidence independently from the local test result. Local tests cannot prove production metadata, review-environment behavior, cross-device delivery, or Family Sharing.
