StoreKit 2
Short answerStoreKit 2 is Apple's Swift API for in-app purchases and subscriptions: load products, buy, verify transactions on device, and check entitlements with async/await.
Why it matters
It replaced most receipt-validation server code for small apps: the signed transaction is verified on the device.
