Android Question Google rejected app for not showing subscription price - but it does for me?

[tsteward]

Had my latest update for my app rejected as it is misleading not showing price for subs.

What I don't understand is on my phone it clearly does.
Any suggestions as to why this might be?

I found and installed your app.
When I click in the subscription I don't see the prices and I need to click in the Buy button to see the prices.
I think you need to review your code to check why the price are not showing when the subscription screen are opened.

 

[tsteward]

Yeah I agree but like I show the price do appear for me so how can I trouble shoot this?

This is the code that fills the subs page.

Public Sub GetAllProductPrice
    '************* GOOGLE PLAY STORE ******************
    'make sure that the store service is connected
    Starter.myLog.Add($"(GetAllProductPrice) Getting Prices from PS"$)
    Wait For (Starter.billing.ConnectIfNeeded) Billing_Connected (Result As BillingResult)
    If Result.IsSuccess Then
        'get the sku details
        Starter.myLog.Add($"(GetAllProductPrice) Connected to PS Result - ${Result.ResponseCodeString}"$)
        Dim sf As Object = Starter.billing.QuerySkuDetails("subs", Array(Starter.ADS_SDK_ID4,Starter.ADS_SDK_ID5))
        Wait For (sf) Billing_SkuQueryCompleted (Result As BillingResult, SkuDetailsList As List)
        Starter.myLog.Add($"(GetAllProductPrice) Info received from PS Result - ${Result.ResponseCodeString}"$)
        If Result.IsSuccess And SkuDetailsList.Size > 0 Then
            clvSubscribe.Clear
            For Each Sku As SkuDetails In SkuDetailsList
                Dim sPrice As String
                If Sku.Price = "" Then
                    Dim offers As List = Sku.As(JavaObject).RunMethod("getSubscriptionOfferDetails", Null)
                    Dim offer As JavaObject = offers.Get(0)

                    Dim PricingPhase As JavaObject
                    PricingPhase = l.Get(0)
                    sPrice = PricingPhase.RunMethod("getFormattedPrice", Null)
                Else

so how can I trouble shoot this?

Maybe you should take a look at where the text for the price is set. Then you will see that it displays a text like in the picture above at @asales "B4XPages.MainPage.loc.Localize("Active")". So something is wrong with the following line Starter.SKU_Purchased = Sku.Sku

I've been over it and I just don't see a fault on my phone.
Something mustn't be right but what?

Here is latest result on my device

 

[Alex_197]

Maybe just a cache?

 

[tsteward]

Maybe just a cache?

Please explain

Please explain

you're pulling prices from Google subscription, right? Did you try to run your app on another phone?

Just installed your app - no prices.

Tried another phone - the same result.

I just installed the app, selected Sunscription (No registration made) - the same result.

Solved the problem by checking if sPrice was = to Free and if it was then I hard coded the prices.
Google passed this so issue solved. Although I do wish it worked properly getting the price from the app store and displaying it in the clients currency.

Oh well it will do for now.
