# Cohorting in 3rd Party Tools
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/3rd-party-analytics/cohorting-in-3rd-party-tools
To easily view Superwall cohorts in 3rd party tools, we recommend you set user attributes based on the experiments that users are included in. You can also use custom placements for creating analytics events for actions such as interacting with an element on a paywall.
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
override fun handleSuperwallEvent(eventInfo: SuperwallEventInfo) {
when(eventInfo.event) {
is SuperwallEvent.TriggerFire -> {
MyAnalyticsService.shared.setUserAttributes(
mapOf(
"sw_experiment_${eventInfo.params.get("experiment_id").toString()}" to true,
"sw_variant_${eventInfo.params.get("variant_id").toString()}" to true
)
)
}
else -> {}
}
}
```
:::
:::flutter
```dart Flutter
@override
void handleSuperwallEvent(SuperwallEventInfo eventInfo) async {
final experimentId = eventInfo.params?['experiment_id'];
final variantId = eventInfo.params?['variant_id'];
switch (eventInfo.event.type) {
case EventType.triggerFire:
MyAnalyticsService.shared.setUserAttributes({
"sw_experiment_$experimentId": true,
"sw_variant_$variantId": true
});
break;
default:
break;
}
}
```
:::
:::expo
```typescript React Native
handleSuperwallEvent(eventInfo: SuperwallEventInfo) {
const experimentId = eventInfo.params?['experiment_id']
const variantId = eventInfo.params?['variant_id']
if (!experimentId || !variantId) {
return
}
switch (eventInfo.event.type) {
case EventType.triggerFire:
MyAnalyticsService.shared.setUserAttributes({
`sw_experiment_${experimentId}`: true,
`sw_variant_${variantId}`: true
});
break;
default:
break;
}
}
```
:::
Once you've set this up, you can easily ask for all users who have an attribute `sw_experiment_1234` and breakdown by both variants to see how users in a Superwall experiment behave in other areas of your app.

# Custom Paywall Analytics
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/3rd-party-analytics/custom-paywall-analytics
Learn how to log events from paywalls, such as a button tap or product change, to forward to your analytics service.
You can create customized analytics tracking for any paywall event by using custom placements. With them, you can get callbacks for actions such as interacting with an element on a paywall sent to your [Superwall delegate](/using-superwall-delegate). This can be useful for tracking how users interact with your paywall and how that affects their behavior in other areas of your app.
For example, in the paywall below, perhaps you're interested in tracking when people switch the plan from "Standard" and "Pro":

You could create a custom placement [tap behavior](/paywall-editor-styling-elements#tap-behaviors) which fires when a segment is tapped:

Then, you can listen for this placement and forward it to your analytics service:
```swift Swift
extension SuperwallService: SuperwallDelegate {
func handleSuperwallEvent(withInfo eventInfo: SuperwallEventInfo) {
switch eventInfo.event {
case let .customPlacement(name, params, paywallInfo):
// Prints out didTapPro or didTapStandard
print("\(name) - \(params) - \(paywallInfo)")
MyAnalyticsService.shared.send(event: name, params: params)
default:
print("Default event: \(eventInfo.event.description)")
}
}
}
```

### Hooking up Superwall events to 3rd party tools
SuperwallKit automatically tracks some internal events. You can [view the list of events here](/tracking-analytics). We encourage you to also track them in your own analytics by implementing the [Superwall delegate](/using-superwall-delegate). Using the `handleSuperwallEvent(withInfo:)` function, you can forward events to your analytics service:
:::android
```kotlin
override fun handleSuperwallEvent(eventInfo: SuperwallEventInfo) {
println("analytics event: ${eventInfo.event.rawName}")
MyAnalytics.shared.track(eventInfo.event.rawName, eventInfo.params)
}
```
:::
You might also want to set user attribute to allow for [Cohorting in 3rd Party
Tools](/cohorting-in-3rd-party-tools)
Alternatively, if you want typed versions of all these events with associated values, you can access them via `eventInfo.event`:
:::android
```kotlin
override fun handleSuperwallEvent(eventInfo: SuperwallEventInfo) {
when(eventInfo.event) {
is SuperwallPlacement.AppClose -> TODO()
is SuperwallPlacement.AppInstall -> TODO()
is SuperwallPlacement.AppLaunch -> TODO()

# Superwall Events
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/3rd-party-analytics/tracking-analytics
The SDK automatically tracks some events, which power the charts in the dashboard.
We encourage you to track them in your own analytics as described in [3rd Party Analytics](/3rd-party-analytics).
The following Superwall events can be used as placements to present paywalls:
* `app_install`
* `app_launch`
* `deepLink_open`
* `session_start`
* `paywall_decline`
* `transaction_fail`
* `transaction_abandon`
* `survey_response`
For more info about how to use these, check out [how to add them using a Placement](/campaigns-placements#adding-a-placement).
The full list of events is as follows:

# Custom Paywall Actions
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/advanced/custom-paywall-actions
undefined
For example, adding a custom action called `help_center` to a button in your paywall gives you the opportunity to present a help center whenever that button is pressed. To set this up, implement `handleCustomPaywallAction(withName:)` in your `SuperwallDelegate`:
:::android
```kotlin
override fun handleCustomPaywallAction(name: String) {
if (name == "help_center") {
HelpCenterManager.present()
}
}
```
:::
Remember to set `Superwall.shared.delegate`! For implementation details, see the [Superwall Delegate](/using-superwall-delegate) guide.

# Purchasing Products Outside of a Paywall
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/advanced/direct-purchasing
undefined
If you're using Superwall for revenue tracking, but want a hand with making purchases in your implementation, you can use our `purchase` methods:
:::android
```kotlin Android
// Purchase product with first available baseplan
Superwall.instance.purchase("my_product_id")
// Purchase product with base plan and cheapest/free offer
Superwall.instance.purchase("my_product_id:base_plan:sw-auto")
// Purchase product with a specified offer
Superwall.instance.purchase("my_product_id:base_plan:offer")
// Purchase product with no offer
Superwall.instance.purchase("my_product_id:base_plan:sw-none")
```
:::
For iOS, the `purchase()` method supports StoreKit 1, 2 and Superwall's abstraction over a product, `StoreProduct`. You can fetch the products you've added to Superwall via the `products(for:)` method. Similarly, in Android, you can fetch a product using a product identifier — and the first base plan will be selected:
:::android
```kotlin Android
val products = Superwall.instance.getProducts("id1", "id2")
```
:::
If you already have your own product fetching code, simply pass the product representation to these methods. For example, in StoreKit 1 — an `SKProduct` instance, in StoreKit 2, `Product`, etc. Each `purchase()` implementation returns a `PurchaseResult`, which informs you of the transaction's resolution:
* `.cancelled`: The purchase was cancelled.
* `.purchased`: The product was purchased.
* `.pending`: The purchase is pending/deferred and requires action from the developer.
* `.failed(Error)`: The purchase failed for a reason other than the user cancelling or the payment pending.

# Observer Mode
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/advanced/observer-mode
undefined
If you wish to make purchases outside of Superwall's SDK and paywalls, you can use **observer mode** to report purchases that will appear in the Superwall dashboard, such as transactions:

This is useful if you are using Superwall solely for revenue tracking, and you're making purchases using frameworks like StoreKit or Google Play Billing Library directly. Observer mode will also properly link user identifiers to transactions. To enable observer mode, set it using `SuperwallOptions` when configuring the SDK:
:::android
```kotlin Android (Automatic)
val options = SuperwallOptions()
options.shouldObservePurchases = true
Superwall.configure(this, "your_api_key", options = options)
// In your purchase methods, replace Google's billing code with Superwall's proxy
val productDetailsParams =
SuperwallBillingFlowParams.ProductDetailsParams
.newBuilder()
.setOfferToken("test_offer_token")
.setProductDetails(mockProductDetails)
.build()
val params =
SuperwallBillingFlowParams
.newBuilder()
.setIsOfferPersonalized(true)
.setObfuscatedAccountId(...)
.setObfuscatedProfileId(...)
.setProductDetailsParamsList(listOf(productDetailsParams))
.build()
billingClient.launchBillingFlowWithSuperwall()
```
```kotlin Android (Manual)
val options = SuperwallOptions()
options.shouldObservePurchases = true
Superwall.configure(this, "your_api_key", options = options)
// In your purchase methods, begin by tracking the purchase start
Superwall.instance.observePurchaseStart(productDetails)
// On succesful purchase
Superwall.instance.observePurchaseResult(billingResult, purchases)
// On purchase error
Superwall.instance.observePurchaseError(productDetails, error)
```
:::
There are a few things to keep in mind when using observer mode:
1. On iOS, if you're using StoreKit 2, then Superwall solely reports transaction completions. If you're using StoreKit 1, then Superwall will report transaction starts, abandons, and completions.
2. When using observer mode, you can't make purchases using our SDK — such as `Superwall.shared.purchase(aProduct)`.

# Retrieving and Presenting a Paywall Yourself
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/advanced/presenting-paywalls
undefined
If you want complete control over the paywall presentation process, you can use `getPaywall(forPlacement:params:paywallOverrides:delegate:)`. This returns the `UIViewController` subclass `PaywallViewController`, which you can then present however you like. Or, you can use a SwiftUI `View` via `PaywallView`. The following is code is how you'd mimic [register](/docs/feature-gating):
```swift Swift
final class MyViewController: UIViewController {
private func presentPaywall() async {
do {
// 1
let paywallVc = try await Superwall.shared.getPaywall(
forPlacement: "campaign_trigger",
delegate: self
)
self.present(paywallVc, animated: true)
} catch let skippedReason as PaywallSkippedReason {
// 2
switch skippedReason {
case .holdout,
.noAudienceMatch,
.placementNotFound:
break
}
} catch {
// 3
print(error)
}
}
private func launchFeature() {
// Insert code to launch a feature that's behind your paywall.
}
}
// 4
extension MyViewController: PaywallViewControllerDelegate {
func paywall(
_ paywall: PaywallViewController,
didFinishWith result: PaywallResult,
shouldDismiss: Bool
) {
if shouldDismiss {
paywall.dismiss(animated: true)

let closeReason = paywall.info.closeReason
let featureGating = paywall.info.featureGatingBehavior
if closeReason != .forNextPaywall && featureGating == .nonGated {
launchFeature()
}
}
}
}
```

This does the following:
1. Gets the paywall view controller.
2. Handles the cases where the paywall was skipped.
3. Catches any presentation errors.
4. Implements the delegate. This is called when the user is finished with the paywall. First, it checks `shouldDismiss`. If this is true then is dismissed the paywall from view before launching any features. This may depend on the `result` depending on how you first presented your view. Then, it switches over the `result`. If the result is `purchased` or `restored` the feature can be launched. However, if the result is `declined`, it checks that the the `featureGating` property of `paywall.info` is `nonGated` and that the `closeReason` isn't `.forNextPaywall`.
### Best practices
1. **Make sure to prevent a paywall from being accessed after a purchase has occurred**.
If a user purchases from a paywall, it is your responsibility to make sure that the user can't access that paywall again. For example, if after successful purchase you decide to push a new view on to the navigation stack, you should make sure that the user can't go back to access the paywall.
2. **Make sure the paywall view controller deallocates before presenting it elsewhere**.
If you have a paywall view controller presented somewhere and you try to present
the same view controller elsewhere, you will get a crash. For example, you may
have a paywall in a tab bar controller, and then you also try to present it
modally. We plan on improving this, but currently it's your responsibility to
ensure this doesn't happen.

# Using the Presentation Handler
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/advanced/using-the-presentation-handler
undefined
You can provide a `PaywallPresentationHandler` to `register`, whose functions provide status updates for a paywall:
* `onDismiss`: Called when the paywall is dismissed. Accepts a `PaywallInfo` object containing info about the dismissed paywall, and there is a `PaywallResult` informing you of any transaction.
* `onPresent`: Called when the paywall did present. Accepts a `PaywallInfo` object containing info about the presented paywall.
* `onError`: Called when an error occurred when trying to present a paywall. Accepts an `Error` indicating why the paywall could not present.
* `onSkip`: Called when a paywall is skipped. Accepts a `PaywallSkippedReason` enum indicating why the paywall was skipped.
```swift Swift
let handler = PaywallPresentationHandler()
handler.onDismiss { paywallInfo, result in
print("The paywall dismissed. PaywallInfo: \(paywallInfo). Result: \(result)")
}
handler.onPresent { paywallInfo in
print("The paywall presented. PaywallInfo:", paywallInfo)
}
handler.onError { error in
print("The paywall presentation failed with error \(error)")
}
handler.onSkip { reason in
switch reason {
case .holdout(let experiment):
print("Paywall not shown because user is in a holdout group in Experiment: \(experiment.id)")
case .noAudienceMatch:
print("Paywall not shown because user doesn't match any audiences.")
case .placementNotFound:
print("Paywall not shown because this placement isn't part of a campaign.")
}
}
Superwall.shared.register(placement: "campaign_trigger", handler: handler) {
// Feature launched
}
```
```swift Objective-C

})

Wanting to see which product was just purchased from a paywall? Use `onDismiss` and the `result`
parameter. Or, you can use the
[SuperwallDelegate](/3rd-party-analytics#using-events-to-see-purchased-products).

# Viewing Purchased Products
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/advanced/viewing-purchased-products
undefined
When a paywall is presenting and a user converts, you can view the purchased products in several different ways.
### Use the `PaywallPresentationHandler`
Arguably the easiest of the options — simply pass in a presentation handler and check out the product within the `onDismiss` block.
```swift Swift
let handler = PaywallPresentationHandler()
handler.onDismiss { _, result in
switch result {
case .declined:
print("No purchased occurred.")
case .purchased(let product):
print("Purchased \(product.productIdentifier)")
case .restored:
print("Restored purchases.")
}
}
Superwall.shared.register(placement: "caffeineLogged", handler: handler) {
logCaffeine()
}
```
```swift Objective-C
SWKPaywallPresentationHandler *handler = [SWKPaywallPresentationHandler new];
[handler onDismiss:^(SWKPaywallInfo * _Nonnull info,
enum SWKPaywallResult result,
SWKStoreProduct * _Nullable product) {
switch (result) {
case SWKPaywallResultPurchased:
NSLog(@"Purchased %@", product.productIdentifier);
default:
NSLog(@"Unhandled event.");
}
}];
[[Superwall sharedInstance] registerWithPlacement:@"caffeineLogged"
params:@{}
handler:handler
feature:^{
[self logCaffeine];
}];
```
```kotlin Android
val handler = PaywallPresentationHandler()
handler.onDismiss { _, paywallResult ->
when (paywallResult) {
is PaywallResult.Purchased -> {
// The user made a purchase!
val purchasedProductId = paywallResult.productId
println("User purchased product: $purchasedProductId")
// ... do something with the purchased product ID ...
}
is PaywallResult.Declined -> {
// The user declined to make a purchase.
println("User declined to make a purchase.")
// ... handle the declined case ...
}
is PaywallResult.Restored -> {
// The user restored a purchase.
println("User restored a purchase.")
// ... handle the restored case ...
}
}
}
Superwall.instance.register(placement = "caffeineLogged", handler = handler) {
logCaffeine()
}
```
```dart Flutter
PaywallPresentationHandler handler = PaywallPresentationHandler();
handler.onDismiss((paywallInfo, paywallResult) async {
String name = await paywallInfo.name;
print("Handler (onDismiss): $name");
switch (paywallResult) {
case PurchasedPaywallResult(productId: var id):
// The user made a purchase!
print('User purchased product: $id');
// ... do something with the purchased product ID ...
break;
case DeclinedPaywallResult():
// The user declined to make a purchase.
print('User declined the paywall.');
// ... handle the declined case ...
break;
case RestoredPaywallResult():
// The user restored a purchase.
print('User restored a previous purchase.');
// ... handle the restored case ...
break;
}
});
Superwall.shared.registerPlacement(
"caffeineLogged", handler: handler, feature: () {
logCaffeine();
});
```
```typescript React Native
import * as React from "react"
import Superwall from "../../src"
import { PaywallPresentationHandler, PaywallInfo } from "../../src"
import type { PaywallResult } from "../../src/public/PaywallResult"
const Home = () => {
const navigation = useNavigation()
const presentationHandler: PaywallPresentationHandler = {
onDismiss: (handler: (info: PaywallInfo, result: PaywallResult) => void) => {
handler = (info, result) => {
console.log("Paywall dismissed with info:", info, "and result:", result)
if (result.type === "purchased") {
console.log("Product purchased with ID:", result.productId)
}
}
},
onPresent: (handler: (info: PaywallInfo) => void) => {
handler = (info) => {
console.log("Paywall presented with info:", info)
// Add logic for when the paywall is presented
}
},
onError: (handler: (error: string) => void) => {
handler = (error) => {
console.error("Error presenting paywall:", error)
// Handle any errors that occur during presentation
}
},
onSkip: () => {
console.log("Paywall presentation skipped")
// Handle the case where the paywall presentation is skipped
},
}
const nonGated = () => {
Superwall.shared.register({ placement: "non_gated", handler: presentationHandler, feature: () => {
navigation.navigate("caffeineLogged", {
value: "Go for caffeine logging",
})
});
}
return // Your view code here
}
```
### Use `SuperwallDelegate`
Next, the [SuperwallDelegate](/using-superwall-delegate) offers up much more information, and can inform you of virtually any Superwall event that occurred:
```swift Swift
class SWDelegate: SuperwallDelegate {
func handleSuperwallEvent(withInfo eventInfo: SuperwallEventInfo) {
switch eventInfo.event {
case .transactionComplete(_, let product, _, _):
print("Transaction complete: product: \(product.productIdentifier)")
case .subscriptionStart(let product, _):
print("Subscription start: product: \(product.productIdentifier)")
case .freeTrialStart(let product, _):
print("Free trial start: product: \(product.productIdentifier)")
case .transactionRestore(_, _):
print("Transaction restored")
case .nonRecurringProductPurchase(let product, _):
print("Consumable product purchased: \(product.id)")
default:
print("Unhandled event.")
}
}
}
@main
struct Caffeine_PalApp: App {
@State private var swDelegate: SWDelegate = .init()
init() {
Superwall.configure(apiKey: "my_api_key")
Superwall.shared.delegate = swDelegate
}
var body: some Scene {
WindowGroup {
ContentView()
}
}
}
```
```swift Objective-C
// SWDelegate.h...
#import
@import SuperwallKit;
NS_ASSUME_NONNULL_BEGIN
@interface SWDelegate : NSObject
@end
NS_ASSUME_NONNULL_END
// SWDelegate.m...
@implementation SWDelegate
- (void)handleSuperwallEventWithInfo:(SWKSuperwallEventInfo *)eventInfo {
switch(eventInfo.event) {
case SWKSuperwallEventTransactionComplete:
NSLog(@"Transaction complete: %@", eventInfo.params[@"primary_product_id"]);
}
}
// In AppDelegate.m...
#import "AppDelegate.h"
#import "SWDelegate.h"
@import SuperwallKit;
@interface AppDelegate ()
@property (strong, nonatomic) SWDelegate *delegate;
@end
@implementation AppDelegate
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
self.delegate = [SWDelegate new];
[Superwall configureWithApiKey:@"my_api_key"];
[Superwall sharedInstance].delegate = self.delegate;
return YES;
}
```
```kotlin Android
class SWDelegate : SuperwallDelegate {
override fun handleSuperwallEvent(eventInfo: SuperwallEventInfo) {
when (eventInfo.event) {
is SuperwallPlacement.TransactionComplete -> {
val transaction = (eventInfo.event as SuperwallPlacement.TransactionComplete).transaction
val product = (eventInfo.event as SuperwallPlacement.TransactionComplete).product
val paywallInfo = (eventInfo.event as SuperwallPlacement.TransactionComplete).paywallInfo
println("Transaction Complete: $transaction, Product: $product, Paywall Info: $paywallInfo")
}
else -> {
// Handle other cases
}
}
}
}
class MyApplication : Application() {
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()
Superwall.configure(this, "my_api_key")
Superwall.instance.delegate = SWDelegate()
}
}
```
```dart Flutter
import 'dart:io';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:superwallkit_flutter/superwallkit_flutter.dart';
class _MyAppState extends State implements SuperwallDelegate {
final logging = Logging();
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
configureSuperwall(useRevenueCat);
}
Future configureSuperwall(bool useRevenueCat) async {
try {
final apiKey = Platform.isIOS
? 'ios_api_project_key'
: 'android_api_project_key';
final logging = Logging();
logging.level = LogLevel.warn;
logging.scopes = {LogScope.all};
final options = SuperwallOptions();
options.paywalls.shouldPreload = false;
options.logging = logging;
Superwall.configure(apiKey,
purchaseController: null,

logging.info('Executing Superwall configure completion block');
});
Superwall.shared.setDelegate(this);
} catch (e) {

logging.error('Failed to configure Superwall:', e);
}
}
@override
Future handleSuperwallEvent(SuperwallEventInfo eventInfo) async {
switch (eventInfo.event.type) {
case PlacementType.transactionComplete:
final product = eventInfo.params?['product'];
logging.info('Transaction complete event received with product: $product');
// Add any additional logic you need to handle the transaction complete event
break;
// Handle other events if necessary
default:
logging.info('Unhandled event type: ${eventInfo.event.type}');
break;
}
}
}
```
```typescript React Native
import {
PaywallInfo,
SubscriptionStatus,
SuperwallDelegate,
SuperwallPlacementInfo,
PlacementType,
} from '../../src';
export class MySuperwallDelegate extends SuperwallDelegate {
handleSuperwallPlacement(placementInfo: SuperwallPlacementInfo) {
console.log('Handling Superwall placement:', placementInfo);
switch (placementInfo.placement.type) {
case PlacementType.transactionComplete:
const product = placementInfo.params?.["product"];
if (product) {
console.log(`Product: ${product}`);
} else {
console.log("Product not found in params.");
}
break;
default:
break;
}
}
}
export default function App() {
const delegate = new MySuperwallDelegate();
React.useEffect(() => {
const setupSuperwall = async () => {
const apiKey =
Platform.OS === 'ios'
? 'ios_api_project_key'
: 'android_api_project_key';
Superwall.configure({
apiKey: apiKey,
});
Superwall.shared.setDelegate(delegate);
};
}
}
```
### Use a purchase controller
If you are controlling the purchasing pipeline yourself via a [purchase controller](/advanced-configuration), then naturally the purchased product is available:
```swift Swift
final class MyPurchaseController: PurchaseController {
func purchase(product: StoreProduct) async -> PurchaseResult {
print("Kicking off purchase of \(product.productIdentifier)")
do {
let result = try await MyPurchaseLogic.purchase(product: product)
return .purchased // .cancelled, .pending, .failed(Error)
} catch {
return .failed(error)
}
}
// 2
func restorePurchases() async -> RestorationResult {
print("Restoring purchases")
return .restored // false
}
}
@main
struct Caffeine_PalApp: App {
private let pc: MyPurchaseController = .init()
init() {
Superwall.configure(apiKey: "my_api_key", purchaseController: pc)
}
var body: some Scene {
WindowGroup {
ContentView()
}
}
}
```
```swift Objective-C
// In MyPurchaseController.h...
#import
@import SuperwallKit;
@import StoreKit;
NS_ASSUME_NONNULL_BEGIN
@interface MyPurchaseController : NSObject
+ (instancetype)sharedInstance;
@end
NS_ASSUME_NONNULL_END
// In MyPurchaseController.m...
#import "MyPurchaseController.h"
@implementation MyPurchaseController
+ (instancetype)sharedInstance
{
static MyPurchaseController *sharedInstance = nil;
static dispatch_once_t onceToken;
dispatch_once(&onceToken, ^{
sharedInstance = [MyPurchaseController new];
});
return sharedInstance;
}
- (void)purchaseWithProduct:(SWKStoreProduct * _Nonnull)product
completion:(void (^ _Nonnull)(enum SWKPurchaseResult, NSError * _Nullable))completion {
NSLog(@"Kicking off purchase of %@", product.productIdentifier);
// Do purchase logic here
completion(SWKPurchaseResultPurchased, nil);
}
- (void)restorePurchasesWithCompletion:(void (^ _Nonnull)(enum SWKRestorationResult, NSError * _Nullable))completion {
// Do restore logic here
completion(SWKRestorationResultRestored, nil);
}
@end
// In AppDelegate.m...
#import "AppDelegate.h"
#import "MyPurchaseController.h"
@import SuperwallKit;
@interface AppDelegate ()
@end
@implementation AppDelegate
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
[Superwall configureWithApiKey:@"my_api_key"
purchaseController:[MyPurchaseController sharedInstance]
options:nil
completion:^{
}];
return YES;
}
```
```kotlin Android
class MyPurchaseController(val context: Context): PurchaseController {
override suspend fun purchase(
activity: Activity,
productDetails: ProductDetails,
basePlanId: String?,
offerId: String?
): PurchaseResult {
println("Kicking off purchase of $basePlanId")
return PurchaseResult.Purchased()
}
override suspend fun restorePurchases(): RestorationResult {
TODO("Not yet implemented")
}
}
class MyApplication : Application() {
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()
Superwall.configure(this, "my_api_key", purchaseController = MyPurchaseController(this))
}
}
```
```dart Flutter
class MyPurchaseController extends PurchaseController {
// 1
@override
Future purchaseFromAppStore(String productId) async {
print('Attempting to purchase product with ID: $productId');
// Do purchase logic
return PurchaseResult.purchased;
}
@override
Future purchaseFromGooglePlay(
String productId,
String? basePlanId,
String? offerId
) async {
print('Attempting to purchase product with ID: $productId and basePlanId: $basePlanId');
// Do purchase logic
return PurchaseResult.purchased;
}
@override
Future restorePurchases() async {
// Do resture logic
}
}
```
```typescript React Native
export class MyPurchaseController extends PurchaseController {
// 1
async purchaseFromAppStore(productId: string): Promise {
console.log("Kicking off purchase of ", productId)
// Purchase logic
return await this._purchaseStoreProduct(storeProduct)
}
async purchaseFromGooglePlay(
productId: string,
basePlanId?: string,
offerId?: string
): Promise {
console.log("Kicking off purchase of ", productId, " base plan ID", basePlanId)
// Purchase logic
return await this._purchaseStoreProduct(storeProduct)
}
// 2
async restorePurchases(): Promise {
// TODO
// ----
// Restore purchases and return true if successful.
}
}
```
### SwiftUI - Use `PaywallView`
The `PaywallView` allows you to show a paywall by sending it a placement. It also has a dismiss handler where the purchased product will be vended:
```swift
@main
struct Caffeine_PalApp: App {
@State private var presentPaywall: Bool = false
init() {
Superwall.configure(apiKey: "my_api_key")
}
var body: some Scene {
WindowGroup {
Button("Log") {
presentPaywall.toggle()
}
.sheet(isPresented: $presentPaywall) {
PaywallView(placement: "caffeineLogged", params: nil, paywallOverrides: nil) { info, result in
switch result {
case .declined:
print("No purchased occurred.")
case .purchased(let product):
print("Purchased \(product.productIdentifier)")
case .restored:
print("Restored purchases.")
}
} feature: {
print("Converted")
presentPaywall.toggle()
}
}
}
}
}
```

# Advanced Purchasing
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/advanced-configuration
If you need fine-grain control over the purchasing pipeline, use a purchase controller to manually handle purchases and subscription status.
Using a `PurchaseController` is only recommended for **advanced** use cases. By default, Superwall handles all
subscription-related logic and purchasing operations for you out of the box.
By default, Superwall handles basic subscription-related logic for you:
1. **Purchasing**: When the user initiates a checkout on a paywall.
2. **Restoring**: When the user restores previously purchased products.
3. **Subscription Status**: When the user's subscription status changes to active or expired (by checking the local receipt).
However, if you want more control, you can pass in a `PurchaseController` when configuring the SDK via `configure(apiKey:purchaseController:options:)` and manually set `Superwall.shared.subscriptionStatus` to take over this responsibility.
### Step 1: Creating a `PurchaseController`
A `PurchaseController` handles purchasing and restoring via protocol methods that you implement.
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
// MyPurchaseController.kt
class MyPurchaseController(val context: Context): PurchaseController {
// 1
override suspend fun purchase(
activity: Activity,
productDetails: ProductDetails,
basePlanId: String?,
offerId: String?
): PurchaseResult {
// TODO
// ----
// Purchase via GoogleBilling, RevenueCat, Qonversion or however
// you like and return a valid PurchaseResult
return PurchaseResult.Purchased()
}
// 2
override suspend fun restorePurchases(): RestorationResult {
// TODO
// ----
// Restore purchases and return true if successful.
return RestorationResult.Success()
}
}
```
:::
Here’s what each method is responsible for:
1. Purchasing a given product. In here, enter your code that you use to purchase a product. Then, return the result of the purchase as a `PurchaseResult`. For Flutter, this is separated into purchasing from the App Store and Google Play. This is an enum that contains the following cases, all of which must be handled:
1. `.cancelled`: The purchase was cancelled.
2. `.purchased`: The product was purchased.
3. `.pending`: The purchase is pending/deferred and requires action from the developer.
4. `.failed(Error)`: The purchase failed for a reason other than the user cancelling or the payment pending.
2. Restoring purchases. Here, you restore purchases and return a `RestorationResult` indicating whether the restoration was successful or not. If it was, return `.restore`, or `failed` along with the error reason.
### Step 2: Configuring the SDK With Your `PurchaseController`
Pass your purchase controller to the `configure(apiKey:purchaseController:options:)` method:
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
// MainApplication.kt
class MainApplication : android.app.Application(), SuperwallDelegate {
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()
Superwall.configure(this, "MY_API_KEY", MyPurchaseController(this))
// OR using the DSL
configureSuperwall("MY_API_KEY") {
purchaseController = MyPurchaseController(this@MainApplication)
}
}
}
```
:::
### Step 3: Keeping `subscriptionStatus` Up-To-Date
You **must** set `Superwall.shared.subscriptionStatus` every time the user's subscription status changes, otherwise the SDK won't know who to show a paywall to. This is an enum that has three possible cases:
1. **`.unknown`**: This is the default value. In this state, paywalls will not show and their presentation will be ***automatically delayed*** until `subscriptionStatus` changes to a different value.
2. **`.active(let entitlements)`**: Indicates that the user has an active entitlement. Paywalls will not show in this state unless you remotely set the paywall to ignore subscription status. A user can have one or more active entitlement.
3. **`.inactive`**: Indicates that the user doesn't have an active entitlement. Paywalls can show in this state.
Here's how you might do this:
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
// When a subscription is purchased, restored, validated, expired, etc...
myService.subscriptionStatusDidChange {
if (it.hasActiveSubscription) {
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus.Active(entitlements))
} else {
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus.Inactive(entitlements))
}
}
```
:::
`subscriptionStatus` is cached between app launches
### Listening for subscription status changes
If you need a simple way to observe when a user's subscription status changes, on iOS you can use the `Publisher` for it. Here's an example:
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
Superwall.instance.subscriptionStatus.collect { status: SubscriptionStatus ->
// React to changes
}
```
:::
You can do similar tasks with the `SuperwallDelegate`, such as [viewing which product was purchased from a paywall](/3rd-party-analytics#using-events-to-see-purchased-products).

# Advanced Configuration
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/configuring
When configuring the SDK you can pass in options that configure Superwall, the paywall presentation, and its appearance.
### Logging
Logging is enabled by default in the SDK and is controlled by two properties: `level` and `scopes`.
`level` determines the minimum log level to print to the console. There are five types of log level:
1. **debug**: Prints all logs from the SDK to the console. Useful for debugging your app if something isn't working as expected.
2. **info**: Prints errors, warnings, and useful information from the SDK to the console.
3. **warn**: Prints errors and warnings from the SDK to the console.
4. **error**: Only prints errors from the SDK to the console.
5. **none**: Turns off all logs.
The SDK defaults to `info`.
`scopes` defines the scope of logs to print to the console. For example, you might only care about logs relating to `paywallPresentation` and `paywallTransactions`. This defaults to `.all`. Check out [LogScope](https://sdk.superwall.me/documentation/superwallkit/logscope) for all possible cases.
You set these properties like this:
:::android
```kotlin
val options = SuperwallOptions()
options.logging.level = LogLevel.warn
options.logging.scopes = EnumSet.of(LogScope.paywallPresentation, LogScope.paywallTransactions)
Superwall.configure(
this,
apiKey = "MY_API_KEY",
options = options
)
// Or you can set:
Superwall.instance.logLevel = LogLevel.warn
// Or use the configuration DSL
configureSuperwall("MY_API_KEY") {
options {
logging {
level = LogLevel.warn
scopes = EnumSet.of(LogScope.paywallPresentation, LogScope.paywallTransactions)
}
}
}
```
:::
### Preloading Paywalls
Paywalls are preloaded by default when the app is launched from a cold start. The paywalls that are preloaded are determined by the list of placements that result in a paywall for the user when [registered](/docs/feature-gating). Preloading is smart, only preloading paywalls that belong to audiences that could be matched.
Paywalls are cached by default, which means after they load once, they don't need to be reloaded from the network unless you make a change to them on the dashboard. However, if you have a lot of paywalls, preloading may increase network usage of your app on first load of the paywalls and result in slower loading times overall.
You can turn off preloading by setting `shouldPreload` to `false`:
:::android
```kotlin
val options = SuperwallOptions()
options.paywalls.shouldPreload = false
Superwall.configure(
this,
apiKey = "MY_API_KEY",
options = options
)
// Or using the configuration DSL
configureSuperwall("MY_API_KEY") {
options {
paywalls {
shouldPreload = false
}
}
}
```
:::
Then, if you'd like to preload paywalls for specific placements you can use `preloadPaywalls(forPlacements:)`:
:::android
```kotlin
val eventNames = setOf("campaign_trigger")
Superwall.instance.preloadPaywalls(eventNames)
```
:::
If you'd like to preload all paywalls you can use `preloadAllPaywalls()`:
:::android
```kotlin
Superwall.instance.preloadAllPaywalls()
```
:::
Note: These methods will not reload any paywalls that have already been preloaded.
### External Data Collection
By default, Superwall sends all registered events and properties back to the Superwall servers. However, if you have privacy concerns, you can stop this by setting `isExternalDataCollectionEnabled` to `false`:
:::android
```kotlin
val options = SuperwallOptions()
options.isExternalDataCollectionEnabled = false
Superwall.configure(
this,
apiKey = "MY_API_KEY",
options = options
)
// Or using the configuration DSL
configureSuperwall("MY_API_KEY") {
options {
isExternalDataCollectionEnabled = false
}
}
```
:::
Disabling this will not affect your ability to create triggers based on properties.
### Automatically Dismissing the Paywall
By default, Superwall automatically dismisses the paywall when a product is purchased or restored. You can disable this by setting `automaticallyDismiss` to `false`:
:::android
```kotlin
val options = SuperwallOptions()
options.paywalls.automaticallyDismiss = false
Superwall.configure(
this,
apiKey = "MY_API_KEY",
options = options
)
// Or using the configuration DSL
configureSuperwall("MY_API_KEY") {
options {
paywalls {
automaticallyDismiss = false
}
}
}
```
:::
To manually dismiss the paywall , call `Superwall.shared.dismiss()`.
### Custom Restore Failure Message
You can set the title, message and close button title for the alert that appears after a restoration failure:
:::android
```kotlin
val options = SuperwallOptions()
options.paywalls.restoreFailed.title = "My Title"
options.paywalls.restoreFailed.message = "My message"
options.paywalls.restoreFailed.closeButtonTitle = "Close"
Superwall.configure(
this,
apiKey = "MY_API_KEY",
options = options
)
// Or using the configuration DSL
configureSuperwall("MY_API_KEY") {
options {
paywalls {
restoreFailed.title = "My Title"
restoreFailed.message = "My message"
restoreFailed.closeButtonTitle = "Close"
}
}
}
```
:::
### Haptic Feedback
On iOS, the paywall uses haptic feedback by default after a user purchases or restores a product, opens a URL from the paywall, or closes the paywall. To disable this, set the `isHapticFeedbackEnabled` `PaywallOption` to false:
Note: Android does not use haptic feedback.
### Transaction Background View
During a transaction, we add a `UIActivityIndicator` behind the view to indicate a loading status. However, you can remove this by setting the `transactionBackgroundView` to `nil`:
:::android
```kotlin
val options = SuperwallOptions()
options.paywalls.transactionBackgroundView = null
Superwall.configure(
this,
apiKey = "MY_API_KEY",
options = options
)
// Or using the configuration DSL
configureSuperwall("MY_API_KEY") {
options {
paywalls {
transactionBackgroundView = null
}
}
}
```
:::
### Purchase Failure Alert
When a purchase fails, we automatically present an alert with the error message. If you'd like to show your own alert after failure, set the `shouldShowPurchaseFailureAlert` `PaywallOption` to `false`:
:::android
```kotlin
val options = SuperwallOptions()
options.paywalls.shouldShowPurchaseFailureAlert = false
Superwall.configure(
this,
apiKey = "MY_API_KEY",
options = options
)
// Or using the configuration DSL
configureSuperwall("MY_API_KEY") {
options {
paywalls {
shouldShowPurchaseFailureAlert = false
}
}
}
```
:::
### Locale Identifier
When evaluating rules, the device locale identifier is set to `autoupdatingCurrent`. However, you can override this if you want to test a specific locale:
:::android
```kotlin
val options = SuperwallOptions()
options.localeIdentifier = "en_GB"
Superwall.configure(
this,
apiKey = "MY_API_KEY",
options = options
)
// Or using the configuration DSL
configureSuperwall("MY_API_KEY") {
options {
localeIdentifier = "en_GB"
}
}
```
:::
For a list of locales that are available on iOS, take a look at [this list](https://gist.github.com/jacobbubu/1836273). You can also preview your paywall in different locales using [In-App Previews](/docs/in-app-paywall-previews).
### Game Controller
If you're using a game controller, you can enable this in `SuperwallOptions` too. Check out our [Game Controller Support](/docs/game-controller-support) article.
Take a look at [SuperwallOptions](https://sdk.superwall.me/documentation/superwallkit/superwalloptions) in our SDK reference for more info.

Support for Experimental Flags in Android is not yet available.

# Migrating from v1 to v2 - Android
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/migrations/migrating-to-v2
SuperwallKit 2.0 is a major release of Superwall's Android SDK. This introduces breaking changes.
## Migration steps
## 1. Update code references
### 1.1 Rename references from `event` to `placement`
In some most cases, the updates are simple and consist of renaming `events` to `placements` where necessary, for others, you'll need to run through this list to manually update your code.
| Before | After |
| ------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------- |
| fun register(event:) | fun register(placement:) |
| fun preloadPaywalls(forEvents:) | fun preloadPaywalls(forPlacements:) |
| fun getPaywall(forEvent:) | fun getPaywall(forPlacement:) |
| fun getPresentationResult(forEvent:) | fun getPresentationResult(forPlacement:) |
| TriggerResult.EventNotFound | TriggerResult.PlacementNotFound |
| TriggerResult.NoRuleMatch | TriggerResult.NoAudienceMatch |
### 1.2 If using Compose and Paywall Composable
The `PaywallComposable` has been removed from the main Superwall SDK and moved into an optional `superwall-compose` library.
To use it, besides including the main superwall library, you'll now need to also include a `superwall-compose` artifact
```groovy gradle
implementation "com.superwall.sdk:superwall-compose:2.0.0"
```
## 2. Replacing getPaywall with PaywallBuilder
The default method for retrieving a paywall to display it yourself is changing to use the Builder pattern, allowing you more flexibility
in both retrieving and displaying paywalls. The builder allows for improved customisation of your paywall experience, allowing you to pass
in both custom Shimmer and Loading views by implementing proper interfaces.
Usage example:
```kotlin Android
val paywallView = PaywallBuilder("placement_name")
.params(mapOf("key" to "value"))
.overrides(PaywallOverrides())
.delegate(mySuperwallDelegate)
.shimmerView(MyShimmerView(context))
.purchaseLoadingView(MyPurchaseLoadingView(context))
.activity(activity)
.build()
```
### 3. Getting the purchased product
The `onDismiss` block of the `PaywallPresentationHandler` now accepts both a `PaywallInfo` object and a `PaywallResult` object. This allows you to easily access
the purchased product from the result when the paywall dismisses.
### 4. Entitlements
The `subscriptionStatus` has been changed to accept a set of `Entitlement` objects. This allows you to give access to entitlements based on products purchased.
For example, in your app you might have Bronze, Silver, and Gold subscription tiers, i.e. entitlements, which entitle a user to access a certain set of features within your app.
Every subscription product must be associated with one or more entitlements, which is controlled via the dashboard. Superwall will already have associated all your
products with a default entitlement. If you don't use more than one entitlement tier within your app and you only use subscription products, you don't need to do anything extra.
However, if you use one-time purchases or multiple entitlements, you should review your products and their entitlements. In general, consumables should not be associated with an
entitlement, whereas non-consumables should be. Check your products [here](https://superwall.com/applications/\:app/products/v2).
If you're using a `PurchaseController`, you'll need to set the `entitlements` with the `subscriptionStatus`:
| Before | After |
| ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Superwall.shared.setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus.ACTIVE) | Superwall.shared.setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus.Active(entitlements)) |
You can get the `ProductDetails` and their associated entitlements from Superwall by calling the method `products(for:)`. Here is an example of how you'd sync your subscription
status with Superwall using these methods:
```kotlin With Play Billing
suspend fun syncSubscriptionStatus() {
// We await for configuration to be set so our entitlements are available
Superwall.instance.configurationStateListener.first { it is ConfigurationStatus.Configured }
// Query purchases from your BillingClient
val subscriptionPurchases = queryPurchasesOfType(BillingClient.ProductType.SUBS)
val inAppPurchases = queryPurchasesOfType(BillingClient.ProductType.INAPP)
val allPurchases = subscriptionPurchases + inAppPurchases
val hasActivePurchaseOrSubscription =
allPurchases.any { it.purchaseState == Purchase.PurchaseState.PURCHASED }
val status: SubscriptionStatus =
if (hasActivePurchaseOrSubscription) {
subscriptionPurchases
.flatMap {
// Extract the productId
it.products
}.toSet() // Ensure uniqueness
.flatMap {
// Receive entitlements
val res = entitlementsInfo.byProductId(it)
res
}.toSet()
.let { entitlements ->
if (entitlements.isNotEmpty()) {
SubscriptionStatus.Active(entitlements)
} else {
SubscriptionStatus.Inactive
}
}
} else {
SubscriptionStatus.Inactive
}
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(status)
}
```
```kotlin with RevenueCat
fun syncSubscriptionStatus() {
Purchases.sharedInstance.getCustomerInfoWith {
if (hasAnyActiveEntitlements(it)) {
setSubscriptionStatus(
SubscriptionStatus.Active(
it.entitlements.active
.map {
Entitlement(it.key, Entitlement.Type.SERVICE_LEVEL)
}.toSet(),
),
)
} else {
setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus.Inactive)
}
}
}
```
You can listen to the flowable property `Superwall.instance.subscriptionStatus` to be notified when the subscriptionStatus changes. Or you can use the `SuperwallDelegate`
method `subscriptionStatusDidChange(from:to:)`, which replaces `subscriptionStatusDidChange(to:)`.
### 5. Paywall Presentation Condition
In the Paywall Editor you can choose whether to always present a paywall or ask the SDK to check the user subscription before presenting a paywall.
For users on v2 of the SDK, this is replaced with a check on the entitlements within the audience filter. As you migrate your users from v1 to v2 of the
SDK, you'll need to make sure you set both the entitlements check and the paywall presentation condition in the paywall editor.

## 6. Check out the full change log
You can view this on [our GitHub page](https://github.com/superwall/Superwall-Android/blob/develop/CHANGELOG.md).
## 7. Check out our updated example apps
All of our [example apps](https://github.com/superwall/Superwall-Android/tree/develop/example) have been updated to use the latest SDK. We now only have two apps: Basic and Advanced. Basic shows you the basic integration of Superwall
without needing a purchase controller or multiple entitlements. Advanced has multiple flavors, showing you how to use entitlements within your app as well as optionally using a purchase controller with Play Billing or RevenueCat.

# Using RevenueCat
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/using-revenuecat
undefined
Not using RevenueCat? No problem! Superwall works out of the box without any additional SDKs.
You can integrate RevenueCat with Superwall using several approaches:
## Class-Based Integration
You can integrate RevenueCat with Superwall using purchase controllers:
1. **Using a purchase controller:** Use this route if you want to maintain control over purchasing logic and code.
2. **Using PurchasesAreCompletedBy:** Here, you don't use a purchase controller and you tell RevenueCat that purchases are completed by your app using StoreKit. In this mode, RevenueCat will observe the purchases that the Superwall SDK makes. For more info [see here](https://www.revenuecat.com/docs/migrating-to-revenuecat/sdk-or-not/finishing-transactions).
### 1. Create a PurchaseController
Create a new file called `RCPurchaseController`, then copy and paste the following:
:::android
```kotlin
package com.superwall.superapp

:::
As discussed in [Purchases and Subscription Status](/docs/advanced-configuration), this `PurchaseController` is responsible for handling the subscription-related logic. Take a few moments to look through the code to understand how it does this.
#### 2. Configure Superwall
Initialize an instance of `RCPurchaseController` and pass it in to `Superwall.configure(apiKey:purchaseController)`:
:::android
```kotlin
val purchaseController = RCPurchaseController(this)
Superwall.configure(
this,
"MY_API_KEY",
purchaseController
)
// Make sure we sync the subscription status
// on first load and whenever it changes
purchaseController.syncSubscriptionStatus()
```
:::
#### 3. Sync the subscription status
Then, call `purchaseController.syncSubscriptionStatus()` to keep Superwall's subscription status up to date with RevenueCat.
That's it! Check out our sample app for working examples:
:::android
* [Android](https://github.com/superwall/Superwall-Android/tree/develop/example/app/src/revenuecat)
:::
### Using PurchasesAreCompletedBy
If you're using RevenueCat's [PurchasesAreCompletedBy](https://www.revenuecat.com/docs/migrating-to-revenuecat/sdk-or-not/finishing-transactions), you don't need to create a purchase controller. Register your placements, present a paywall — and Superwall will take care of completing any purchase the user starts. However, there are a few things to note if you use this setup:
1. Here, you aren't using RevenueCat's [entitlements](https://www.revenuecat.com/docs/getting-started/entitlements#entitlements) as a source of truth. If your app is multiplatform, you'll need to consider how to link up pro features or purchased products for users.
2. If you require custom logic when purchases occur, then you'll want to add a purchase controller. In that case, Superwall handles purchasing flows and RevenueCat will still observe transactions to power their analytics and charts.
3. Be sure that user identifiers are set the same way across Superwall and RevenueCat.
For more information on observer mode, visit [RevenueCat's docs](https://www.revenuecat.com/docs/migrating-to-revenuecat/sdk-or-not/finishing-transactions).

# Using the Superwall Delegate
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/using-superwall-delegate
undefined
Use Superwall's delegate to extend our SDK's functionality across several surface areas by assigning to the `delegate` property:
:::android
```kotlin
class SWDelegate : SuperwallDelegate {
// Implement delegate methods here
}
// When configuring the SDK...
Superwall.instance.delegate = SWDelegate()
```
:::
Some common use cases for using the Superwall delegate include:
* **Custom actions:** [Respond to custom tap actions from a paywall.](/custom-paywall-events#custom-paywall-actions)
* **Respond to purchases:** [See which product was purchased from the presented paywall.](/viewing-purchased-products)
* **Analytics:** [Forward events from Superwall to your own analytics.](/3rd-party-analytics)
Below are some commonly used implementations when using the delegate.
### Superwall Events
Most of what occurs in Superwall can be viewed using the delegate method to respond to events:
:::android
```kotlin
class SWDelegate : SuperwallDelegate {
override fun handleSuperwallEvent(eventInfo: SuperwallEventInfo) {
// Handle any relevant events here...
when (eventInfo.event) {
is SuperwallPlacement.TransactionComplete -> {
val transaction = (eventInfo.event as SuperwallPlacement.TransactionComplete).transaction
val product = (eventInfo.event as SuperwallPlacement.TransactionComplete).product
val paywallInfo = (eventInfo.event as SuperwallPlacement.TransactionComplete).paywallInfo
println("Transaction Complete: $transaction, Product: $product, Paywall Info: $paywallInfo")
}
else -> {
// Handle other cases
}
}
}
}
```
:::
### Paywall Custom Actions
Using the [custom tap action](/custom-paywall-events), you can respond to any arbitrary event from a paywall:
:::android
```kotlin
class SWDelegate : SuperwallDelegate {
override fun handleCustomPaywallAction(withName: String) {
if (withName == "caffeineLogged") {
println("Custom paywall action: $withName")
}
}
}
```
:::
### Subscription status changes
You can be informed of subscription status changes using the delegate. If you need to set or handle the status on your own, use a [purchase controller](/advanced-configuration) — this function is only for informational, tracking or similar purposes:
:::android
```kotlin
class SWDelegate : SuperwallDelegate {
override fun subscriptionStatusDidChange(from: SubscriptionStatus, to: SubscriptionStatus) {
println("Subscription status changed from $from to $to")
}
}
```
:::
### Paywall events
The delegate also has callbacks for several paywall events, such dismissing, presenting, and more. Here's an example:
:::android
```kotlin
class SWDelegate : SuperwallDelegate {
override fun didPresentPaywall(withInfo: PaywallInfo) {
println("Paywall presented: $withInfo")
}
}
```

* [Superwall Docs GPT](#superwall-docs-gpt) in ChatGPT
And right here in the Superwall Docs:
* [Ask AI](#ask-ai)
* [Docs Links](#docs-links)
* [LLMs.txt](#llmstxt)
## Superwall Docs MCP
The Superwall Docs MCP ([Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/tutorials/use-remote-mcp-server)) is a tool that allows your favorite AI tools to search the Superwall Docs and get context from the docs.
### Cursor
You can install the MCP server in Cursor by clicking this button:
[](https://cursor.com/en/install-mcp?name=superwall-docs-mcp\&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21jcC5zdXBlcndhbGwuY29tL21jcCJ9)
or by adding the following to your `~/.cursor/mcp.json` file:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"superwall-docs": {
"url": "https://mcp.superwall.com/mcp"
}
}
}
```
### Claude Code
You can install the MCP server in Claude Code by running the following command:
```bash
claude mcp add --transport sse superwall-docs https://mcp.superwall.com/sse

## Superwall Docs GPT
You can use the [Superwall Docs GPT](https://chatgpt.com/g/g-6888175f1684819180302d66f4e61971-superwall-docs-gpt) right in the ChatGPT app, and use it to ask any Superwall question.
It has the full knowledge of the Superwall Docs, and can be used with all the ChatGPT features you love like using the context of your files straight from your IDE.
## Ask AI
The built-in [Ask AI tool](https://superwall.com/docs/ai) in the Superwall Docs is a great place to start if you have a question or issue.
## Docs Links
On each page of the Superwall Docs (including this one!), you can find in the top right corner:
* **Copy page**: to copy the page in Markdown format.
Also in the dropdown menu, you can access these options:
* **View as markdown**: to view the page in Markdown format
* **Open in ChatGPT**, **Open in Claude**: to open the page in the respective AI tool and add the page as context for your conversation
## LLMs.txt
The Superwall Docs website has `llms.txt` and `llms-full.txt` files, in total and for each SDK, that you can use to add context to your LLMs.
`llms.txt` is a summary of the docs with links to each page.
`llms-full.txt` is the full text of all of the docs.
| SDK | Summary | Full Text |
| --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

# Redeeming In-App
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/web-checkout/linking-membership-to-iOS-app
Handle a deep link in your app and use the delegate methods.
After purchasing from a web paywall, the user will be redirected to your app by a deep link to redeem their purchase on device.
Please follow our [Post-Checkout Redirecting](/web-checkout-post-checkout-redirecting) guide to handle this user experience.
If you're using Superwall to handle purchases, then you don't need to do anything here.
If you're using your own `PurchaseController`, you will need to update the subscription status with the redeemed web entitlements. If you're using RevenueCat, you should follow our [Using RevenueCat](/web-checkout-using-revenuecat) guide.
### Using a PurchaseController
If you're using StoreKit in your PurchaseController, you'll need to merge the web entitlements with the device entitlements before setting the subscription status.
Here's an example of how you might do this:
```swift
func syncSubscriptionStatus() async {
var products: Set = []
// Get the device entitlements
for await verificationResult in Transaction.currentEntitlements {
switch verificationResult {
case .verified(let transaction):
products.insert(transaction.productID)
case .unverified:
break
}
}
let storeProducts = await Superwall.shared.products(for: products)
let deviceEntitlements = Set(storeProducts.flatMap { $0.entitlements })
// Get the web entitlements from Superwall
let webEntitlements = Superwall.shared.entitlements.web
// Merge the two sets of entitlements
let allEntitlements = deviceEntitlements.union(webEntitlements)
await MainActor.run {
Superwall.shared.subscriptionStatus = .active(allEntitlements)
}
}
```
In addition to syncing the subscription status when purchasing and restoring, you'll need to sync it whenever `didRedeemLink(result:)` is called:
```swift
final class Delegate: SuperwallDelegate {
func didRedeemLink(result: RedemptionResult) {
Task {
await syncSubscriptionStatus()
}
}
}
```
### Refreshing of web entitlements
If you aren't using a Purchase Controller, the SDK will refresh the web entitlements every 24 hours.
### Redeeming while a paywall is open
If a redeem event occurs when a paywall is open, the SDK will track that as a restore event and the paywall will close.

# Post-Checkout Redirecting
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/web-checkout/post-checkout-redirecting
Learn how to handle users redirecting back to your app after a web purchase.
Whether you’re showing a checkout page in Safari or using the In-App Browser, the Superwall SDK relies on deep links to redirect back to your app.
#### Prerequisites
1. [Configuring Stripe Keys and Settings](/web-checkout-configuring-stripe-keys-and-settings)
2. [Deep Links](/in-app-paywall-previews)
Here, we'll focus on how to handle the user experience when the user has been redirected back to your app after a web purchase, using `SuperwallDelegate` methods.
If you're not using Superwall to handle purchases, then you'll need to follow extra steps to redeem the web purchase in your app.
* [Using RevenueCat](/web-checkout-using-revenuecat)
* [Using a PurchaseController](/web-checkout-linking-membership-to-iOS-app#using-a-purchasecontroller)
## willRedeemLink
When your app opens via the deep link, we will call the delegate method `willRedeemLink()` before making a network call to redeem the code.
At this point, you might wish to display a loading indicator in your app so the user knows that the purchase is being redeemed.
```swift
func willRedeemLink() {
ToastView.show(message: "Activating...", showActivityIndicator: true)
}
```
To present your own loading UI on top of the paywall, you can access the view controller of the paywall via `Superwall.shared.presentedViewController`. You can manually dismiss the paywall here, but note that the completion block of the original `register` call won't be triggered. The paywall will be dismissed automatically when the `didRedeemLink` method is called.
## didRedeemLink
After receiving a response from the network, we will call `didRedeemLink(result:)` with the result of redeeming the code. This is an enum that has the following cases:
* `success(code: String, redemptionInfo: RedemptionInfo)`: The redemption succeeded and `redemptionInfo` contains information about the redeemed code.
* `error(code: String, error: ErrorInfo)`: An error occurred while redeeming. You can check the error message via the `error` parameter.
* `expiredCode(code: String, expired: ExpiredCodeInfo)`: The code expired and `ExpiredCodeInfo` contains information about whether a redemption email has been resent and an optional obfuscated email address that the redemption email was sent to.
* `invalidCode(code: String)`: The code that was redeemed was invalid.
* `expiredSubscription(code: String, redemptionInfo: RedemptionInfo)`: The subscription that the code redeemed has expired.
On network failure, the SDK will retry up to 6 times before returning an `error` `RedemptionResult` in `didRedeemLink(result:)`.
Here, you should remove any loading UI you added in `willRedeemLink` and show a message to the user based on the result. If a paywall is presented, it will be dismissed automatically.
```swift
func didRedeemLink(result: RedemptionResult) {
switch result {
case .expiredCode(let code, let expiredInfo):
ToastView.show(message: "Expired Link", systemImageName: "exclamationmark.square.fill")
print("[!] code expired", code, expiredInfo)
break
case .error(let code, let error):
ToastView.show(message: error.message, systemImageName: "exclamationmark.square.fill")
print("[!] error", code, error)
break
case .expiredSubscription(let code, let redemptionInfo):
ToastView.show(message: "Expired Subscription", systemImageName: "exclamationmark.square.fill")
print("[!] expired subscription", code, redemptionInfo)
break
case .invalidCode(let code):
ToastView.show(message: "Invalid Link", systemImageName: "exclamationmark.square.fill")
print("[!] invalid code", code)
break
case .success(_, let redemptionInfo):
if let email = redemptionInfo.purchaserInfo.email {
Superwall.shared.setUserAttributes(["email": email])
ToastView.show(message: email, systemImageName: "person.circle.fill")
}
else {
ToastView.show(message: "Welcome!", systemImageName: "person.circle.fill")
}
break
}
}
```

# Using RevenueCat
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/guides/web-checkout/using-revenuecat
Handle a deep link in your app and use the delegate methods to link web checkouts with RevenueCat.
After purchasing from a web paywall, the user will be redirected to your app by a deep link to redeem their purchase on device. Please follow our [Post-Checkout Redirecting](/web-checkout-post-checkout-redirecting) guide to handle this user experience.
If you're using Superwall to handle purchases, then you don't need to do anything here.
If you're using your own `PurchaseController`, you should follow our [Redeeming In-App](/web-checkout-linking-membership-to-iOS-app) guide.
### Using a PurchaseController with RevenueCat
If you're using RevenueCat, you'll need to follow [steps 1 to 4 in their guide](https://www.revenuecat.com/docs/web/integrations/stripe) to set up Stripe with RevenueCat. Then, you'll need to
associate the RevenueCat customer with the Stripe subscription IDs returned from redeeming the code. You can do this by extracting the ids from the `RedemptionResult` and sending them to RevenueCat's API
by using the `didRedeemLink(result:)` delegate method:
```swift
import Foundation
import RevenueCat
final class Delegate: SuperwallDelegate {
// The user tapped on a deep link to redeem a code
func willRedeemLink() {
print("[!] willRedeemLink")
// Optionally show a loading indicator here
}
// Superwall received a redemption result and validated the purchase with Stripe.
func didRedeemLink(result: RedemptionResult) {
print("[!] didRedeemLink", result)
// Send Stripe IDs to RevenueCat to link purchases to the customer
// Get a list of subscription ids tied to the customer.
guard let stripeSubscriptionIds = result.stripeSubscriptionIds else { return }
guard let url = URL(string: "https://api.revenuecat.com/v1/receipts") else { return }
let revenueCatStripePublicAPIKey = "strp....." // replace with your RevenueCat Stripe Public API Key
let appUserId = Purchases.shared.appUserID
// In the background...
Task.detached {
await withTaskGroup(of: Void.self) { group in
// For each subscription id, link it to the user in RevenueCat
for stripeSubscriptionId in stripeSubscriptionIds {
group.addTask {
var request = URLRequest(url: url)
request.httpMethod = "POST"
request.setValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
request.setValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Accept")
request.setValue("stripe", forHTTPHeaderField: "X-Platform")
request.setValue("Bearer \(revenueCatStripePublicAPIKey)", forHTTPHeaderField: "Authorization")
do {
request.httpBody = try JSONEncoder().encode([
"app_user_id": appUserId,
"fetch_token": stripeSubscriptionId
])
let (data, _) = try await URLSession.shared.data(for: request)
let json = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data, options: [])
print("[!] Success: linked \(stripeSubscriptionId) to user \(appUserId)", json)
} catch {
print("[!] Error: unable to link \(stripeSubscriptionId) to user \(appUserId)", error)
}
}
}
}
/// After all network calls complete, invalidate the cache without switching to the main thread.
Purchases.shared.getCustomerInfo(fetchPolicy: .fetchCurrent) { customerInfo, error in
/// If you're using `Purchases.shared.customerInfoStream`, or keeping Superwall Entitlements in sync
/// via RevenueCat's `PurchasesDelegate` methods, you don't need to do anything here. Those methods will be
/// called automatically when this call fetches the most up to customer info, ignoring any local caches.
/// Otherwise, if you're manually calling `Purchases.shared.getCustomerInfo` to keep Superwall's entitlements
/// in sync, you should use the newly updated customer info here to do so.
}
/// You could always access web entitlements here as well
/// `let webEntitlements = Superwall.shared.entitlements.web`
// After all network calls complete...
await MainActor.run {
// Perform UI updates on the main thread, like letting the user know their subscription was redeemed
}
}
}
}
```
If you call `logIn` from RevenueCat's SDK, then you need to call the logic you've implemented
inside `didRedeemLink(result:)` again. For example, that means if `logIn` was invoked from
RevenueCat, you'd either abstract out this logic above into a function to call again, or simply
call this function directly.
The web entitlements will be returned along with other existing entitlements in the `CustomerInfo` object accessible via RevenueCat's SDK.
If you’re logging in and out of RevenueCat, make sure to resend the Stripe subscription IDs to RevenueCat’s endpoint after logging in.

# Configure the SDK
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/quickstart/configure
undefined
As soon as your app launches, you need to configure the SDK with your **Public API Key**. You'll retrieve this from the Superwall settings page.
### Sign Up & Grab Keys
If you haven't already, [sign up for a free account](https://superwall.com/sign-up) on Superwall. Then, when you're through to the Dashboard, click **Settings** from the panel on the left, click **Keys** and copy your **Public API Key**:

### Initialize Superwall in your app
Begin by editing your main Application entrypoint. Depending on the
platform this could be `AppDelegate.swift` or `SceneDelegate.swift` for iOS,
`MainApplication.kt` for Android, `main.dart` in Flutter, or `App.tsx` for React Native:
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
// MainApplication.kt
class MainApplication : android.app.Application(), SuperwallDelegate {
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()
// Setup
Superwall.configure(this, "MY_API_KEY")
// OR using the DSL
configureSuperwall("MY_API_KEY") {
purchaseController = MyPurchaseController(this@MainApplication)
}
}
}
```
:::
This configures a shared instance of `Superwall`, the primary class for interacting with the SDK's API. Make sure to replace `MY_API_KEY` with your public API key that you just retrieved.
By default, Superwall handles basic subscription-related logic for you. However, if you’d like
greater control over this process (e.g. if you’re using RevenueCat), you’ll want to pass in a
`PurchaseController` to your configuration call and manually set the `subscriptionStatus`. You can
also pass in `SuperwallOptions` to customize the appearance and behavior of the SDK. See
[Purchases and Subscription Status](/advanced-configuration) for more.
You've now configured Superwall!

# Presenting Paywalls
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/quickstart/feature-gating
Control access to premium features with Superwall placements.
This allows you to register a [placement](/campaigns-placements) to access a feature that may or may not be paywalled later in time. It also allows you to choose whether the user can access the feature even if they don't make a purchase.
Here's an example.
#### With Superwall
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
fun pressedWorkoutButton() {
// remotely decide if a paywall is shown and if
// navigation.startWorkout() is a paid-only feature
Superwall.instance.register("StartWorkout") {
navigation.startWorkout()
}
}
```
:::
#### Without Superwall
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
fun pressedWorkoutButton() {
if (user.hasActiveSubscription) {
navigation.startWorkout()
} else {
navigation.presentPaywall { result ->
if (result) {
navigation.startWorkout()
} else {
// user didn't pay, developer decides what to do
}
}
}
}
```
:::
### How registering placements presents paywalls
You can configure `"StartWorkout"` to present a paywall by [creating a campaign, adding the placement, and adding a paywall to an audience](/campaigns) in the dashboard.
1. The SDK retrieves your campaign settings from the dashboard on app launch.
2. When a placement is called that belongs to a campaign, audiences are evaluated ***on device*** and the user enters an experiment — this means there's no delay between registering a placement and presenting a paywall.
3. If it's the first time a user is entering an experiment, a paywall is decided for the user based on the percentages you set in the dashboard
4. Once a user is assigned a paywall for an audience, they will continue to see that paywall until you remove the paywall from the audience or reset assignments to the paywall.
5. After the paywall is closed, the Superwall SDK looks at the *Feature Gating* value associated with your paywall, configurable from the paywall editor under General > Feature Gating (more on this below)
1. If the paywall is set to ***Non Gated***, the `feature:` closure on `register(placement: ...)` gets called when the paywall is dismissed (whether they paid or not)
2. If the paywall is set to ***Gated***, the `feature:` closure on `register(placement: ...)` gets called only if the user is already paying or if they begin paying.
6. If no paywall is configured, the feature gets executed immediately without any additional network calls.
Given the low cost nature of how register works, we strongly recommend registering **all core functionality** in order to remotely configure which features you want to gate – **without an app update**.
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
// on the welcome screen
fun pressedSignUp() {
Superwall.instance.register("SignUp") {
navigation.beginOnboarding()
}
}
// in another view controller
fun pressedWorkoutButton() {
Superwall.instance.register("StartWorkout") {
navigation.startWorkout()
}
}
```
:::
### Automatically Registered Placements
The SDK [automatically registers](/tracking-analytics) some internal placements which can be used to present paywalls:
### Register. Everything.
To provide your team with ultimate flexibility, we recommend registering *all* of your analytics events, even if you don't pass feature blocks through. This way you can retroactively add a paywall almost anywhere – **without an app update**!
If you're already set up with an analytics provider, you'll typically have an `Analytics.swift` singleton (or similar) to disperse all your events from. Here's how that file might look:
### Getting a presentation result
Use `getPresentationResult(forPlacement:params:)` when you need to ask the SDK what would happen when registering a placement — without actually showing a paywall. Superwall evaluates the placement and its audience filters then returns a `PresentationResult`. You can use this to adapt your app's behavior based on the outcome (such as showing a lock icon next to a pro feature if they aren't subscribed).
In short, this lets you peek at the outcome first and decide how your app should respond:

# Handling Deep Links
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/quickstart/in-app-paywall-previews
undefined
1. Previewing paywalls on your device before going live.
2. Deep linking to specific [campaigns](/campaigns).
3. Web Checkout [Post-Checkout Redirecting](/web-checkout-post-checkout-redirecting)
## Setup
:::android
The way to deep link into your app is URL Schemes.
:::
### Adding a Custom URL Scheme
:::android
Add the following to your `AndroidManifest.xml` file:
```xml
```
This configuration allows your app to open in response to a deep link with the format `exampleapp://` from your `MainActivity` class.
:::
### Handling Deep Links
:::android
In your `MainActivity` (or the activity specified in your intent-filter), add the following Kotlin code to handle deep links:
```kotlin Kotlin
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
// Respond to deep links
respondToDeepLinks()
}
private fun respondToDeepLinks() {
intent?.data?.let { uri ->
Superwall.instance.handleDeepLink(uri)
}
}
}
```
:::
## Previewing Paywalls
Next, build and run your app on your phone.
Then, head to the Superwall Dashboard. Click on **Settings** from the Dashboard panel on the left, then select **General**:

With the **General** tab selected, type your custom URL scheme, without slashes, into the **Apple Custom URL Scheme** field:

Next, open your paywall from the dashboard and click **Preview**. You'll see a QR code appear in a pop-up:


On your device, scan this QR code. You can do this via Apple's Camera app. This will take you to a paywall viewer within your app, where you can preview all your paywalls in different configurations.
## Using Deep Links to Present Paywalls
Deep links can also be used as a placement in a campaign to present paywalls. Simply add `deepLink_open` as an placement, and the URL parameters of the deep link can be used as parameters! You can also use custom placements for this purpose. [Read this doc](/presenting-paywalls-from-one-another) for examples of both.

# Setting User Attributes
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/quickstart/setting-user-properties
undefined
By setting user attributes, you can display information about the user on the paywall. You can also define [audiences](/campaigns-audience) in a campaign to determine which paywall to show to a user, based on their user attributes.
You do this by passing a `[String: Any?]` dictionary of attributes to `Superwall.shared.setUserAttributes(_:)`:
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
val attributes = mapOf(
"name" to user.name,
"apnsToken" to user.apnsTokenString,
"email" to user.email,
"username" to user.username,
"profilePic" to user.profilePicUrl
)
Superwall.instance.setUserAttributes(attributes) // (merges existing attributes)
```
:::
## Usage
This is a merge operation, such that if the existing user attributes dictionary
already has a value for a given property, the old value is overwritten. Other
existing properties will not be affected. To unset/delete a value, you can pass `nil`
for the value.
You can reference user attributes in [audience filters](/campaigns-audience) to help decide when to display your paywall. When you configure your paywall, you can also reference the user attributes in its text variables. For more information on how to that, see [Configuring a Paywall](/paywall-editor-overview).

# Tracking Subscription State
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/quickstart/tracking-subscription-state
undefined
Superwall tracks the subscription state of a user for you. So, you don't need to add in extra logic for this. However, there are times in your app where you simply want to know if a user is on a paid plan or not. In your app's models, you might wish to set a flag representing whether or not a user is on a paid subscription:
```swift
@Observable
class UserData {
var isPaidUser: Bool = false
}
```
### Using subscription status
You can do this by observing the `subscriptionStatus` property on `Superwall.shared`. This property is an enum that represents the user's subscription status:
```swift
switch Superwall.shared.subscriptionStatus {
case .active(let entitlements):
logger.info("User has active entitlements: \(entitlements)")
userData.isPaidUser = true
case .inactive:
logger.info("User is free plan.")
userData.isPaidUser = false
case .unknown:
logger.info("User is inactive.")
userData.isPaidUser = false
}
```
One natural way to tie the logic of your model together with Superwall's subscription status is by having your own model conform to the [Superwall Delegate](/using-superwall-delegate):
```swift
@Observable
class UserData {
var isPaidUser: Bool = false
}
extension UserData: SuperwallDelegate {
// MARK: Superwall Delegate
func subscriptionStatusDidChange(from oldValue: SubscriptionStatus, to newValue: SubscriptionStatus) {
switch newValue {
case .active(_):
// If you're using more than one entitlement, you can check which one is active here.
// This example just assumes one is being used.
logger.info("User is pro plan.")
self.isPaidUser = true
case .inactive:
logger.info("User is free plan.")
self.isPaidUser = false
case .unknown:
logger.info("User is free plan.")
self.isPaidUser = false
}
}
}
```
Another shorthand way to check? The `isActive` flag, which returns true if any entitlement is active:
```swift
if Superwall.shared.subscriptionStatus.isActive {
userData.isPaidUser = true
}
```
### Superwall checks subscription status for you
Remember that the Superwall SDK uses its [audience filters](/campaigns-audience#matching-to-entitlements) for a similar purpose. You generally don't need to wrap your calls registering placements around `if` statements checking if a user is on a paid plan, like this:
```swift
// Unnecessary
if !Superwall.shared.subscriptionStatus.isActive {
Superwall.shared.register(placement: "campaign_trigger")
}
```
In your audience filters, you can specify whether or not the subscription state should be considered...

...which eliminates the needs for code like the above. This keeps you code base cleaner, and the responsibility of "Should this paywall show" within the Superwall campaign platform as it was designed.

# User Management
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/quickstart/user-management
undefined
### Anonymous Users
Superwall automatically generates a random user ID that persists internally until the user deletes/reinstalls your app.
You can call `Superwall.shared.reset()` to reset this ID and clear any paywall assignments.
### Identified Users
If you use your own user management system, call `identify(userId:options:)` when you have a user's identity. This will alias your `userId` with the anonymous Superwall ID enabling us to load the user’s assigned paywalls.
Calling `Superwall.shared.reset()` will reset the on-device userId to a random ID and clear the paywall assignments.
:::android
Note that for Android apps, if you want the `userId` passed to the Play Store when making purchases, you'll also need to set `passIdentifiersToPlayStore` via `SuperwallOptions`. Be aware of Google's rules that the `userId` must not contain any personally identifiable information, otherwise the purchase could [be rejected](https://developer.android.com/reference/com/android/billingclient/api/BillingFlowParams.Builder#setObfuscatedAccountId).
:::
:::android
```kotlin Kotlin
// After retrieving a user's ID, e.g. from logging in or creating an account
Superwall.instance.identify(user.id)
// When the user signs out
Superwall.instance.reset()
```
:::
**Advanced Use Case**
You can supply an `IdentityOptions` object, whose property `restorePaywallAssignments` you can set to `true`. This tells the SDK to wait to restore paywall assignments from the server before presenting any paywalls. This should only be used in advanced use cases. If you expect users of your app to switch accounts or delete/reinstall a lot, you'd set this when users log in to an existing account.
### Best Practices for a Unique User ID
* Do NOT make your User IDs guessable – they are public facing.
* Do NOT set emails as User IDs – this isn't GDPR compliant.
* Do NOT set IDFA or DeviceIds as User IDs – these are device specific / easily rotated by the operating system.
* Do NOT hardcode strings as User IDs – this will cause every user to be treated as the same user by Superwall.
### Identifying users from App Store server events
On iOS, Superwall always supplies an [`appAccountToken`](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/product/purchaseoption/3749440-appaccounttoken) with every StoreKit 2 transaction:
| Scenario | Value used for `appAccountToken` |
| -------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| You’ve called `Superwall.shared.identify(userId:)` | The exact `userId` you passed |
| You *haven’t* called `identify` yet | The UUID automatically generated for the anonymous user (the **alias ID**), **without** the `$SuperwallAlias:` prefix |
Because the SDK falls back to the alias UUID, purchase notifications sent to your server always include a stable, unique identifier—even before the user signs in.\
Make sure any `userId` you pass to `identify` is a valid UUID string, as Apple requires `appAccountToken` values to follow the UUID format.

# PurchaseController
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/sdk-reference/PurchaseController
An interface for handling Superwall's subscription-related logic with your own purchase implementation.
**This interface is not required.** By default, Superwall handles all subscription-related logic automatically using Google Play Billing.
When implementing PurchaseController, you must manually update [`subscriptionStatus`](/android/sdk-reference/subscriptionStatus) whenever the user's entitlements change.
## Purpose
Use this interface only if you want complete control over purchase handling, such as when using RevenueCat or other third-party purchase frameworks.
## Signature
```kotlin
interface PurchaseController {
suspend fun purchase(
activity: Activity,
product: StoreProduct
): PurchaseResult
suspend fun restorePurchases(): RestorationResult
}
```
```java
// Java
public interface PurchaseController {
CompletableFuture purchase(
Activity activity,
StoreProduct product
);
CompletableFuture restorePurchases();
}
```
## Parameters
| Method | Parameters | Return Type | Description |
| ------------------ | --------------------------------------------- | ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `purchase` | `activity: Activity`, `product: StoreProduct` | `PurchaseResult` | Called when user initiates purchasing. Implement your purchase logic here. Activity is needed for Google Play Billing. |
| `restorePurchases` | None | `RestorationResult` | Called when user initiates restore. Implement your restore logic here. |
## Returns / State
* `purchase()` returns a `PurchaseResult` (`.Purchased`, `.Failed(Throwable)`, `.Cancelled`, or `.Pending`)
* `restorePurchases()` returns a `RestorationResult` (`.Restored` or `.Failed(Throwable?)`)
When using a PurchaseController, you must also manage [`subscriptionStatus`](/android/sdk-reference/subscriptionStatus) yourself.
## Usage
For implementation examples and detailed guidance, see [Using RevenueCat](/android/guides/using-revenuecat).

# Superwall
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/sdk-reference/Superwall
The shared instance of Superwall that provides access to all SDK features.
You must call [`configure()`](/android/sdk-reference/configure) before accessing `Superwall.instance`, otherwise your app will crash.
## Purpose
Provides access to the configured Superwall instance after calling [`configure()`](/android/sdk-reference/configure).
## Signature
```kotlin
companion object {
val instance: Superwall
}
```
```java
// Java
public static Superwall getInstance()
```
## Parameters
This is a companion object property with no parameters.
## Returns / State
Returns the shared `Superwall` instance that was configured via [`configure()`](/android/sdk-reference/configure).
## Usage
Configure first (typically in Application class):
```kotlin
class MyApplication : Application() {
override fun onCreate() {
super.onCreate()
Superwall.configure(
application = this,
apiKey = "pk_your_api_key"
)
}
}
```
Then access throughout your app:
```kotlin
Superwall.instance.register("feature_access") {
// Feature code here
}
```
Set user identity and attributes:
```kotlin
Superwall.instance.identify("user123")
Superwall.instance.setUserAttributes(mapOf(
"plan" to "premium",
"signUpDate" to System.currentTimeMillis()
))
```
Set delegate:
```kotlin
Superwall.instance.delegate = this
```
Java usage:
```java
// Access the instance
Superwall.getInstance().register("feature_access", () -> {
// Feature code here
});
// Set user identity
Superwall.getInstance().identify("user123");
```

# SuperwallDelegate
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/sdk-reference/SuperwallDelegate
An interface that handles Superwall lifecycle events and analytics.
Set the delegate using `Superwall.instance.delegate = this` to receive these callbacks. For Java, use `setJavaDelegate()` for better Java interop.
Use `handleSuperwallEvent(eventInfo)` to track Superwall analytics events in your own analytics platform for a complete view of user behavior.
## Purpose
Provides callbacks for Superwall lifecycle events, analytics tracking, and custom paywall interactions.
## Signature
```kotlin
interface SuperwallDelegate {
fun subscriptionStatusDidChange(
from: SubscriptionStatus,
to: SubscriptionStatus
) {}
fun handleSuperwallEvent(eventInfo: SuperwallEventInfo) {}

A builder class for creating custom PaywallView instances for advanced presentation.
You're responsible for managing the lifecycle of the returned PaywallView. Do not use the same PaywallView instance in multiple places simultaneously.
The remotely configured presentation style is ignored when using this method. You must handle presentation styling programmatically.
## Purpose
Creates a PaywallView that you can present however you want, bypassing Superwall's automatic presentation logic.
## Signature
```kotlin
class PaywallBuilder(private val placement: String) {
fun params(params: Map?): PaywallBuilder
fun overrides(overrides: PaywallOverrides?): PaywallBuilder
fun delegate(delegate: PaywallViewCallback): PaywallBuilder
fun activity(activity: Activity): PaywallBuilder
suspend fun build(): Result
fun buildSync(): PaywallView
fun build(onSuccess: (PaywallView) -> Unit, onError: (Throwable) -> Unit)
}
```
## Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| ----------- | --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `placement` | `String` | The name of the placement as defined on the Superwall dashboard. |
| `params` | `Map?` | Optional parameters to pass with your placement for audience filters. Keys beginning with `$` are reserved and will be dropped. |
| `overrides` | `PaywallOverrides?` | Optional overrides for products and presentation style. |
| `delegate` | `PaywallViewCallback` | A delegate to handle user interactions with the retrieved PaywallView. |
| `activity` | `Activity` | The activity context required for the PaywallView. |
## Returns / State
Returns a `Result` that you can add to your view hierarchy. If presentation should be skipped, returns a failure result.
## Usage
Using with coroutines:
```kotlin
lifecycleScope.launch {
val result = PaywallBuilder("premium_feature")
.params(mapOf("source" to "settings"))
.delegate(object : PaywallViewCallback {
override fun onFinished(
paywall: PaywallView,
result: PaywallResult,
shouldDismiss: Boolean
) {
// Handle paywall completion
}
})
.activity(this@MainActivity)
.build()
result.fold(
onSuccess = { paywallView ->
binding.container.addView(paywallView)
},
onFailure = { error ->
println("Error creating paywall: ${error.message}")
}
)
}
```
Jetpack Compose integration:
```kotlin
@Composable
fun PaywallScreen() {
PaywallComposable(
placement = "premium_feature",
params = mapOf("source" to "settings"),
delegate = object : PaywallViewCallback {
override fun onFinished(
paywall: PaywallView,
result: PaywallResult,
shouldDismiss: Boolean
) {
// Handle completion
}
},
errorComposable = { error ->
Text("Failed to load paywall: ${error.message}")
},
loadingComposable = {
CircularProgressIndicator()
}
)
}
```

# setSubscriptionStatus()
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/sdk-reference/advanced/setSubscriptionStatus
A function that manually sets the subscription status when using a custom PurchaseController.
This function should only be used when implementing a custom [`PurchaseController`](/android/sdk-reference/PurchaseController). When using Superwall's built-in purchase handling, the subscription status is managed automatically.
You must call this function whenever the user's entitlements change to keep Superwall's subscription status synchronized with your purchase system.
## Purpose
Manually updates the subscription status when using a custom [`PurchaseController`](/android/sdk-reference/PurchaseController) to ensure paywall gating and analytics work correctly.
## Signature
```kotlin
fun Superwall.setSubscriptionStatus(status: SubscriptionStatus)
```
```java
// Java
public void setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus status)
```
## Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| -------- | -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `status` | `SubscriptionStatus` | The subscription status to set. Can be `SubscriptionStatus.Unknown`, `SubscriptionStatus.Active(entitlements)`, or `SubscriptionStatus.Inactive`. |
## Returns / State
This function returns `Unit`. The new status will be reflected in the [`subscriptionStatus`](/android/sdk-reference/subscriptionStatus) StateFlow and will trigger the [`SuperwallDelegate.subscriptionStatusDidChange`](/android/sdk-reference/SuperwallDelegate) callback.
## Usage
Set active subscription with entitlements:
```kotlin
// User purchased premium subscription
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(
SubscriptionStatus.Active(setOf("premium", "pro_features"))
)
```
Set inactive subscription:
```kotlin
// User's subscription expired or was cancelled
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus.Inactive)
```
Set unknown status during initialization:
```kotlin
// While checking subscription status on app launch
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus.Unknown)
```
Usage with RevenueCat:
```kotlin
class RevenueCatPurchaseController : PurchaseController {
override suspend fun purchase(
activity: Activity,
product: StoreProduct
): PurchaseResult {
return try {
val result = Purchases.sharedInstance.purchase(activity, product.sku)
// Update Superwall subscription status based on RevenueCat result
if (result.isSuccessful) {
val entitlements = result.customerInfo.entitlements.active.keys
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(
SubscriptionStatus.Active(entitlements)
)
PurchaseResult.Purchased
} else {
PurchaseResult.Failed(Exception("Purchase failed"))
}
} catch (e: Exception) {
PurchaseResult.Failed(e)
}
}
override suspend fun restorePurchases(): RestorationResult {
return try {
val customerInfo = Purchases.sharedInstance.restorePurchases()
val activeEntitlements = customerInfo.entitlements.active.keys
if (activeEntitlements.isNotEmpty()) {
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(
SubscriptionStatus.Active(activeEntitlements)
)
} else {
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus.Inactive)
}
RestorationResult.Restored
} catch (e: Exception) {
RestorationResult.Failed(e)
}
}
}
```
Listen for external subscription changes:
```kotlin
class SubscriptionManager {
fun onSubscriptionStatusChanged(isActive: Boolean, entitlements: Set) {
val status = if (isActive) {
SubscriptionStatus.Active(entitlements)
} else {
SubscriptionStatus.Inactive
}
// Update Superwall whenever subscription status changes externally
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(status)
}
}
```
Java usage:
```java
// Set active subscription
Set entitlements = Set.of("premium", "pro_features");
Superwall.getInstance().setSubscriptionStatus(
new SubscriptionStatus.Active(entitlements)
);
// Set inactive subscription
Superwall.getInstance().setSubscriptionStatus(
SubscriptionStatus.Inactive.INSTANCE
);
```

# handleDeepLink()
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/sdk-reference/handleDeepLink
A function that handles deep links and triggers paywalls based on configured campaigns.
Configure deep link campaigns on the Superwall dashboard by adding the `deepLink` event to a campaign trigger.
Deep link events are also tracked via [`SuperwallEvent.DeepLink`](/android/sdk-reference/SuperwallEvent) and sent to your [`SuperwallDelegate`](/android/sdk-reference/SuperwallDelegate).
## Purpose
Processes a deep link URL and triggers any associated paywall campaigns configured on the Superwall dashboard.
## Signature
```kotlin
fun Superwall.handleDeepLink(url: String)
```
```java
// Java
public void handleDeepLink(String url)
```
## Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| ----- | -------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| `url` | `String` | The deep link URL to process for paywall triggers. |
## Returns / State
This function returns `Unit`. If the URL matches a campaign configured on the dashboard, it may trigger a paywall presentation.
## Usage
In your Activity:
```kotlin
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
// Handle deep link on app launch
intent?.let { handleIntent(it) }
}
override fun onNewIntent(intent: Intent?) {
super.onNewIntent(intent)
intent?.let { handleIntent(it) }
}
private fun handleIntent(intent: Intent) {
val action = intent.action
val data = intent.data
if (Intent.ACTION_VIEW == action && data != null) {
val url = data.toString()
// Handle the deep link with Superwall
Superwall.instance.handleDeepLink(url)
// Continue with your app's deep link handling
handleAppDeepLink(url)
}
}
}
```
In your manifest (declare your deep link schemes):
```xml
```
Handle deep links in different scenarios:
```kotlin
fun handleDeepLinkFromNotification(url: String) {
// Handle deep link from push notification
Superwall.instance.handleDeepLink(url)
navigateToContent(url)
}
fun handleDeepLinkFromWebView(url: String) {
// Handle deep link from web view or external browser
Superwall.instance.handleDeepLink(url)
processWebViewDeepLink(url)
}
```
Java usage:
```java
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Intent intent = getIntent();
handleIntent(intent);
}
@Override
protected void onNewIntent(Intent intent) {
super.onNewIntent(intent);
handleIntent(intent);
}
private void handleIntent(Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
Uri data = intent.getData();
if (Intent.ACTION_VIEW.equals(action) && data != null) {
String url = data.toString();
// Handle the deep link with Superwall
Superwall.getInstance().handleDeepLink(url);
// Continue with your app's deep link handling
handleAppDeepLink(url);
}
}
}
```
Example deep link campaign setup:
```kotlin
// When users click a deep link like "myapp://premium-feature"
// The dashboard campaign can be configured to:
// 1. Track the deepLink event
// 2. Show a paywall if user is not subscribed
// 3. Direct to premium content if user is subscribed
Superwall.instance.handleDeepLink("myapp://premium-feature?source=email")
```

# identify()
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/sdk-reference/identify
A function that creates an account with Superwall by linking a userId to the automatically generated alias.
Call this as soon as you have a user ID, typically after login or when the user's identity becomes available.
## Purpose
Links a user ID to Superwall's automatically generated alias, creating an account for analytics and personalization.
## Signature
```kotlin
fun Superwall.identify(
userId: String,
options: IdentityOptions? = null
)
```
```java
// Java
public void identify(
String userId,
@Nullable IdentityOptions options
)
```
## Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| --------- | ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `userId` | `String` | Your user's unique identifier, as defined by your backend system. |
| `options` | `IdentityOptions?` | Optional configuration for identity behavior. Set `restorePaywallAssignments` to `true` to wait for paywall assignments from the server. Use only in advanced cases where users frequently switch accounts. Defaults to `null`. |
## Returns / State
This function returns `Unit`. After calling, [`isLoggedIn`](/android/sdk-reference/userId) will return `true` and [`userId`](/android/sdk-reference/userId) will return the provided user ID.
## Usage
Basic identification:
```kotlin
Superwall.instance.identify("user_12345")
```
With options for account switching scenarios:
```kotlin
val options = IdentityOptions().apply {
restorePaywallAssignments = true
}
Superwall.instance.identify(
userId = "returning_user_67890",
options = options
)
```
Call as soon as you have a user ID:
```kotlin
fun userDidLogin(user: User) {
Superwall.instance.identify(user.id)
// Set additional user attributes
Superwall.instance.setUserAttributes(mapOf(
"email" to user.email,
"plan" to user.subscriptionPlan,
"signUpDate" to user.createdAt
))
}
```
Java usage:
```java
// Basic identification
Superwall.getInstance().identify("user_12345");
// With options
IdentityOptions options = new IdentityOptions();
options.setRestorePaywallAssignments(true);
Superwall.getInstance().identify("returning_user_67890", options);
```

# register()
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/sdk-reference/register
A function that registers a placement that can be remotely configured to show a paywall and gate feature access.
## Purpose
Registers a placement so that when it's added to a campaign on the Superwall Dashboard, it can trigger a paywall and optionally gate access to a feature.
## Signature
```kotlin
fun Superwall.register(
placement: String,
params: Map? = null,
handler: PaywallPresentationHandler? = null,
feature: () -> Unit,
)
```
```kotlin
fun Superwall.register(
placement: String,
params: Map? = null,
handler: PaywallPresentationHandler? = null,
)
```
## Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| ----------- | ----------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `placement` | `String` | The name of the placement you wish to register. |
| `params` | `Map?` | Optional parameters to pass with your placement. These can be referenced within campaign rules. Keys beginning with `$` are reserved for Superwall and will be dropped. Arrays and nested maps are currently unsupported and will be ignored. Defaults to `null`. |
| `handler` | `PaywallPresentationHandler?` | A handler whose functions provide status updates for the paywall lifecycle. Defaults to `null`. |
| `feature` | `() -> Unit` | A completion block representing the gated feature. It is executed based on the paywall's gating mode: called immediately for **Non-Gated**, called after the user subscribes or if already subscribed for **Gated**. |
## Returns / State
This function returns `Unit`. If you supply a `feature` lambda, it will be executed according to the paywall's gating configuration, as described above.
## Usage
```swift iOS
func pressedWorkoutButton() {
// remotely decide if a paywall is shown and if
// navigation.startWorkout() is a paid-only feature
Superwall.shared.register(placement: "StartWorkout") {
navigation.startWorkout()
}
}
```
```kotlin Android
fun pressedWorkoutButton() {
// remotely decide if a paywall is shown and if
// navigation.startWorkout() is a paid-only feature
Superwall.instance.register("StartWorkout") {
navigation.startWorkout()
}
}
```
```dart Flutter
void pressedWorkoutButton() {
// remotely decide if a paywall is shown and if
// navigation.startWorkout() is a paid-only feature
Superwall.shared.registerPlacement('StartWorkout', feature: () {
navigation.startWorkout();
});
}
```
```typescript React Native
// remotely decide if a paywall is shown and if
// navigation.startWorkout() is a paid-only feature
Superwall.shared.register({
placement: 'StartWorkout',
feature: () => {
navigation.navigate('LaunchedFeature', {
value: 'Non-gated feature launched',
});
}
});
```
Register without feature gating:
```kotlin
Superwall.instance.register(
placement = "onboarding_complete",
params = mapOf("source" to "onboarding"),
handler = this
)
```

# setUserAttributes()
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/sdk-reference/setUserAttributes
A function that sets user attributes for use in paywalls and analytics on the Superwall dashboard.
These attributes should not be used as a source of truth for sensitive information.
Keys beginning with `$` are reserved for Superwall internal use and will be ignored. Arrays and nested maps are not supported as values.
## Purpose
Sets custom user attributes that can be used in paywall personalization, audience filters, and analytics on the Superwall dashboard.
## Signature
```kotlin
fun Superwall.setUserAttributes(attributes: Map)
```
```java
// Java
public void setUserAttributes(Map attributes)
```
## Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| ------------ | ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `attributes` | `Map` | A map of custom attributes to store for the user. Values can be any JSON encodable value, including strings, numbers, booleans, URLs, or timestamps. |
## Returns / State
This function returns `Unit`. If an attribute already exists, its value will be overwritten while other attributes remain unchanged.
## Usage
Set multiple user attributes:
```kotlin
val attributes = mapOf(
"name" to "John Doe",
"email" to "john@example.com",
"plan" to "premium",
"signUpDate" to System.currentTimeMillis(),
"profilePicUrl" to "https://example.com/pic.jpg",
"isVip" to true,
"loginCount" to 42
)
Superwall.instance.setUserAttributes(attributes)
```
Set individual attributes over time:
```kotlin
Superwall.instance.setUserAttributes(mapOf("lastActiveDate" to System.currentTimeMillis()))
Superwall.instance.setUserAttributes(mapOf("featureUsageCount" to 15))
```
Remove an attribute by setting it to null:
```kotlin
Superwall.instance.setUserAttributes(mapOf("temporaryFlag" to null))
```
Real-world example after user updates profile:
```kotlin
fun updateUserProfile(user: User) {
Superwall.instance.setUserAttributes(mapOf(
"name" to user.displayName,
"avatar" to user.avatarURL,
"preferences" to user.notificationPreferences,
"lastUpdated" to System.currentTimeMillis()
))
}
```
Java usage:
```java
// Set multiple attributes
Map attributes = new HashMap<>();
attributes.put("name", "John Doe");
attributes.put("email", "john@example.com");
attributes.put("plan", "premium");
attributes.put("loginCount", 42);
Superwall.getInstance().setUserAttributes(attributes);
```

# subscriptionStatus
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/sdk-reference/subscriptionStatus
A StateFlow property that indicates the subscription status of the user.
If you're using a custom [`PurchaseController`](/android/sdk-reference/PurchaseController), you must update this property whenever the user's entitlements change.
You can also observe changes via the [`SuperwallDelegate`](/android/sdk-reference/SuperwallDelegate) method `subscriptionStatusDidChange(from, to)`.
## Purpose
Indicates the current subscription status of the user and can be observed for changes using Kotlin StateFlow.
## Signature
```kotlin
val subscriptionStatus: StateFlow
// For setting the status (when using custom PurchaseController)
fun setSubscriptionStatus(status: SubscriptionStatus)
```
```java
// Java
public StateFlow getSubscriptionStatus()
public void setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus status)
```
## Parameters
This property accepts a `SubscriptionStatus` sealed class value:
* `SubscriptionStatus.Unknown` - Status is not yet determined
* `SubscriptionStatus.Active(Set)` - User has active entitlements (set of entitlement identifiers)
* `SubscriptionStatus.Inactive` - User has no active entitlements
## Returns / State
Returns a `StateFlow` that emits the current subscription status. When using a [`PurchaseController`](/android/sdk-reference/PurchaseController), you must set this property yourself using `setSubscriptionStatus()`. Otherwise, Superwall manages it automatically.
## Usage
Set subscription status (when using PurchaseController):
```kotlin
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(
SubscriptionStatus.Active(setOf("premium", "pro_features"))
)
Superwall.instance.setSubscriptionStatus(SubscriptionStatus.Inactive)
```
Get current subscription status:
```kotlin
val status = Superwall.instance.subscriptionStatus.value
when (status) {
is SubscriptionStatus.Unknown ->
println("Subscription status unknown")
is SubscriptionStatus.Active ->
println("User has active entitlements: ${status.entitlements}")
is SubscriptionStatus.Inactive ->
println("User has no active subscription")
}
```
Observe changes with StateFlow:
```kotlin
class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
lifecycleScope.launch {
Superwall.instance.subscriptionStatus.collect { status ->
updateUI(status)
}
}
}
private fun updateUI(status: SubscriptionStatus) {
when (status) {
is SubscriptionStatus.Active -> showPremiumContent()
is SubscriptionStatus.Inactive -> showFreeContent()
is SubscriptionStatus.Unknown -> showLoadingState()
}
}
}
```
Jetpack Compose observation:
```kotlin
@Composable
fun ContentScreen() {
val subscriptionStatus by Superwall.instance.subscriptionStatus
.collectAsState()
Column {
when (subscriptionStatus) {
is SubscriptionStatus.Active -> {
Text("Premium user with: ${subscriptionStatus.entitlements.joinToString()}")
}
is SubscriptionStatus.Inactive -> {
Text("Free user")
}
is SubscriptionStatus.Unknown -> {
Text("Loading...")
}
}
}
}
```
Java usage:
```java
// Get current status
SubscriptionStatus status = Superwall.getInstance()
.getSubscriptionStatus().getValue();
// Observe changes
Superwall.getInstance().getSubscriptionStatus()
.observe(this, status -> {
updateUI(status);
});
// Set status (when using PurchaseController)
Superwall.getInstance().setSubscriptionStatus(
new SubscriptionStatus.Active(Set.of("premium"))
);
```

# userId
Source: https://superwall.com/docs/android/sdk-reference/userId
A property on Superwall.instance that returns the current user's ID.
The anonymous user ID is automatically generated and persisted to disk, so it remains consistent across app launches until the user is identified.
## Purpose
Returns the current user's unique identifier, either from a previous call to [`identify()`](/android/sdk-reference/identify) or an anonymous ID if not identified.
## Signature
```kotlin
// Accessed via Superwall.instance
val userId: String
```
```java
// Java
public String getUserId()
```
## Parameters
This is a read-only property on the [`Superwall.instance`](/android/sdk-reference/Superwall) with no parameters.
## Returns / State
Returns a `String` representing the user's ID. If [`identify()`](/android/sdk-reference/identify) has been called, returns that user ID. Otherwise, returns an automatically generated anonymous user ID that is cached to disk.
## Usage
Get the current user ID:
```kotlin
val currentUserId = Superwall.instance.userId
println("User ID: $currentUserId")
```
Check if user is identified:
```kotlin
if (Superwall.instance.isLoggedIn) {
println("User is identified with ID: ${Superwall.instance.userId}")
} else {
println("User is anonymous with ID: ${Superwall.instance.userId}")
}
```
Example usage in analytics:
```kotlin
fun trackAnalyticsEvent() {
val userId = Superwall.instance.userId
Analytics.track("feature_used", mapOf(
"user_id" to userId,
"timestamp" to System.currentTimeMillis()
))
}
```
Example usage in custom logging:
```kotlin
fun logError(error: Throwable) {
Logger.log("Error for user ${Superwall.instance.userId}: ${error.message}")
}
```
Java usage:
```java
// Get current user ID
String currentUserId = Superwall.getInstance().getUserId();
System.out.println("User ID: " + currentUserId);
// Check if user is identified
if (Superwall.getInstance().isLoggedIn()) {
System.out.println("User is identified with ID: " +
Superwall.getInstance().getUserId());
} else {
System.out.println("User is anonymous with ID: " +
Superwall.getInstance().getUserId());
}
```
