The API starting from iOS 16 is the new StoreKit 2 API. This API offers improvements over the original StoreKit API, such as providing customer transaction history and subscription renewal information, and it uses modern language features like the Swift Async/Await pattern. The original API for in-app purchases is deprecated starting with iOS 18, and developers are encouraged to update their apps to use StoreKit 2 for the best in-app purchase experience.
