If I’m consuming instantly, this is the code working in my Android/iOS project
with comment lines explaining the values being passed in the Android build
(note that the product ID values are more specific for Android than iOS):
if tPlatform = "android" then
put "com.midwestcoastmedia.dj3pm." into tProductIDbase
else if tPlatform = "iPhone" then
put EMPTY into tProductIDbase
end if
put tProductIDbase & pWhichProduct into tProductID
mobileStoreEnablePurchaseUpdates
## mobileStoreSetProductType "com.midwestcoastmedia.dj3pm.tip01", "inapp"
mobileStoreSetProductType tProductID, "inapp"
## mobileStoreMakePurchase "com.midwestcoastmedia.dj3pm.tip01", "1",
"Thanks for the buck!"
mobileStoreMakePurchase tProductID, "1", tMessage
## mobileStoreConsumePurchase "com.midwestcoastmedia.dj3pm.tip01"
mobileStoreConsumePurchase tProductID
put the result into tCatch
BUT you’ll also need to implement the on purchaseStateUpdate handler to
completely execute the purchase cycle. The lesson is sometimes hard to follow
when Android changes their branding/naming but

<https://lessons.livecode.com/m/4069/l/184481-how-do-i-implement-in-app-purchases-in-livecode-google-play-store>
has a good example of this.
