    When Unity IAP initialises and gets the StoreController data, it recognises the Google/Apple account that is logged in the device (specifically, what subscription purchases that account currently has).

    How does this occur exactly? Is it possible to access the devices's Google/Apple account data (or some sort of unique account reference)?

    We're looking for a way to identify the correct Store account with the correct app account.

    On Google, you can use IGooglePlayConfiguration.SetObfuscatedAccountId

    Isn't the IGooglePlayConfiguration.SetObfuscatedAccountId(id) for adding our own reference? Our backend guy is asking how Unity IAP knows what Google/Apple account to reference when it requests subscriptions from the relative Store. I'm assuming there's some sort of communication with the device's OS API to see whatever account currently logged into that device.

    Yes, I thought you meant a reference to associate a purchase with an in-game login with the Google Play or Apple ID user of the phone profile. We have no APIs to get the user credentials, the Google Play API and StoreKit API handle all of that internally and securely. Unity IAP is a pass-through service for those APIs. A phone user who has previously purchased a subscription will automatically get a ProcessPurchase call upon first IAP initialization after install. You can also check for the receipt.
