Error Handling

All methods can throw errors that should be handled appropriately. Use the PurchaseError type to get consistent, cross‑platform error information.

import {PurchaseError, requestPurchase} from 'expo-iap';

try {
  await requestPurchase({request: {sku: 'product_id'}});
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof PurchaseError) {
    switch (error.code) {
      case 'E_USER_CANCELLED':
        console.log('User cancelled purchase');
        break;
      case 'E_NETWORK_ERROR':
        console.log('Network error, please try again');
        break;
      default:
        console.error('Purchase failed:', error.message);
    }
  }
}
