This interface allows a user to add the product to other devices or, if the original device was wiped, to restore the transaction on the original device." Maybe somebody can advice how to do this Title Comments My app got rejected because "...you must include an interface that allows users to restore purchases.

Should be any day now that it is updated in the market! Comments The plugin is in queue for update and it will include a restore option the developer @theMonster has said.

This interface allows a user to add the product to other devices or, if the original device was wiped, to restore the transaction on the original device." To restore previously purchased In-App Purchase products, it would be appropriate to provide a "Restore" button and initiate the restore process when the "Restore" button is tapped by the user. For more information about restoring transactions and verifying store receipt, please refer to the In-App Purchase Programming Guide.
