I’m building a Flutter app with an account-based subscription model (users must log in).
Current implementation
Subscriptions are tied to the user account on my backend. After validating receipts (Google / Apple), the backend grants premium entitlement.
Intended behavior
If a user:
- Purchases a subscription on Android
- Logs into the same account on iOS
They will automatically have premium access on iOS (and vice versa), because entitlement is synced server-side.
Both platforms still allow native in-app subscription purchases independently.
Questions
- Under current Apple App Store Review Guidelines (especially section 3.1.x) and Google Play Payments Policy, is this cross-platform entitlement syncing explicitly allowed?
- Have there been documented rejection cases where apps were rejected solely for allowing subscription access across platforms?
- Does using a third-party subscription wrapper (e.g., RevenueCat or Qonversion), while still using StoreKit and Google Play Billing under the hood, introduce additional compliance risk during review?
I’m not asking about monetization strategy — only about Store policy compliance and review risk.
Any policy references or real-world review experiences would be appreciated.
