Restore purchases in mobile app in Capacitor SDK

Restoring Purchases in both iOS and Android is a feature that allows users to regain access to previously purchased content, such as subscriptions or in-app purchases, without being charged again. This feature is especially useful for users who may have uninstalled and reinstalled the app or switched to a new device and want to access their previously purchased content without paying again.

note

In paywalls built with Paywall Builder, purchases are restored automatically without additional code from you. If that's your case — you can skip this step.

To restore a purchase if you do not use the Paywall Builder to customize the paywall, call .restorePurchases() method:

import { adapty } from '@adapty/capacitor';

try {
  const profile = await adapty.restorePurchases();
  const isSubscribed = profile.accessLevels['YOUR_ACCESS_LEVEL']?.isActive;
  
  if (isSubscribed) {
    // Restore access to paid features
    console.log('Access restored successfully!');
  } else {
    console.log('No active subscriptions found');
  }
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Failed to restore purchases:', error);
}

Response parameters:

Parameter	Description
profile	An AdaptyProfile object. This model contains info about access levels, subscriptions, and non-subscription purchases. Check the access level status to determine whether the user has access to the app.
