Windows.ApplicationModel.Store Namespace

Provides types and members for interacting with the Windows Store to add in-app purchases and trial functionality to your Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app.

Note

The Windows.ApplicationModel.Store namespace is no longer being updated with new features. If your project targets Windows 10 Anniversary Edition (10.0; Build 14393) or a later release in Visual Studio (that is, you are targeting Windows 10, version 1607, or later), we recommend that you use the Windows.Services.Store namespace instead. For more information, see In-app purchases and trials. The Windows.ApplicationModel.Store namespace is not supported in Windows desktop applications that use the Desktop Bridge or in apps or games that use a development sandbox in Partner Center (for example, this is the case for any game that integrates with Xbox Live). These products must use the Windows.Services.Store namespace to implement in-app purchases and trials.

ProductPurchaseDisplayProperties

Used to provide the product name that is displayed to the user at time of purchase. This class is used in the creation of a RequestProductPurchaseAsync operation to visually represent a specific offer within a large catalog of in-app products, which is represented by a single product entry in the Microsoft Store.

Remarks

You can use members in this namespace to add in-app purchases and trial functionality to your Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app to help monetize your app. You can use members in this namespace to check the license state of your app and determine if it's a trial version or an active license. This namespace can be used by UWP apps that target any version of Windows 10.

You need a valid Windows Store developer account to interact with the Windows Store by using the CurrentApp class. If you don't have a Windows Store developer account, you can use only the simulated functions in the CurrentAppSimulator class.
