Subscription App for Microsoft Store - How To

My understanding of the subscription model (StoreSubscriptionInfo Class) for an app on the Microsoft store is that only so-called "Add-Ons" can utilize the subscription feature.

How, then, would one go about having the entire app act as a subscription service? I see such apps available on the store - how is this done if there are no "add-ons"?

Thank you!

    Hello,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

    how, then, would one go about having the entire app act as a subscription service?

    Currently, there is no subscription service that could be used for the entire app. A possible way is that you could set your app as free but lock some features in your app. If the user subscribes to the subscription add-on in your app, then the app will unlock the rest of the features.

    Here is the document for subscription add-ons: Enable subscription add-ons for your app

    Thank you.
