How to set-up In App Purchase free trial period in iOS app
IosIn App-PurchaseIos Problem Overview
In Apple's AppStore Terms & Conditions, you may find the following statement in relation to Auto-renewable In App Purchases:
>"Certain paid In App Subscriptions may offer a free trial period prior to charging your Account."
How does it work? I haven't seen any option to allow such free trial period for my Auto-renewable IAPs in iTunes Connect.
