During the server side validation of iTunes receipt we are encountering some receipt for which we are getting empty "in_app" purchases. An empty in_app array indicates that StoreKit has not recorded any transactions for that user yet. Why this is happening and do we have any solution for handling this kind of in_app empty receipts.
