Should I migrate to Google IAP V3 ?

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I recently saw there is Google IAP V3… my questions are:

(1) The reason to use V3?

(2) My published apps are using V2, should I upgrade them to V3? any deadline?

(3) When creating new apps, can they still use V2?

We are unaware of any pending Google deadlines to switch, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be one.  If you switch, you get to call store.loadProducts() to get localized strings and prices if you’re doing internationalization.  On the downside, Google is now “managing” consumable purchases, i.e. things you can buy over and over.  Before your users can buy those items again, you can to call store.consumePurchase().    The call to store.purchase() is a little different, instead of an array of items, its a single string.  That’s about the gist of the changes.
