PaywallActivity doesn't implement all methods in PaywallListener

Describe the bug
The current PaywallActivity (ui/revenuecatui/src/main/kotlin/com/revenuecat/purchases/ui/revenuecatui/activity/PaywallActivity.kt) does not implement all the methods in the PaywallListener (ui/revenuecatui/src/main/kotlin/com/revenuecat/purchases/ui/revenuecatui/PaywallListener.kt). The result is that if the user taps on 'restore', nothing happens. (And nothing can happen as I don't get a result from the Activity). The same is true for the PurchaseError when, for example the user already owns the product.

1. Environment

   1. Platform: Android
   2. SDK version:
   3. OS version:
   4. Android Studio version:
   5. How widespread is the issue. Percentage of devices affected.

2. Debug logs that reproduce the issue

3. Steps to reproduce:

   1. Implement the paywall using the Activity as documented here: https://www.revenuecat.com/docs/displaying-paywalls#how-to-display-a-fullscreen-paywall-in-your-app-1
   2. Expect to get all results for PaywallListener like here: ui/revenuecatui/src/main/kotlin/com/revenuecat/purchases/ui/revenuecatui/PaywallListener.kt
   3. Instead, only get result when a successful new purchase is made.

4. Other information (e.g. stacktraces, related issues, suggestions how to fix, links for us to have context, eg. stackoverflow, etc.)

Hi @Xendrez. Thanks for reporting this!

Unfortunately, when presenting the paywall as an activity, there is no way to get a result back to the caller activity until the paywall is dismissed, whether after a successful purchase or after the user closes it. We offer that result by using the PaywallResultHandler you need to implement, whose possible values are: https://github.com/RevenueCat/purchases-android/blob/main/ui/revenuecatui/src/main/kotlin/com/revenuecat/purchases/ui/revenuecatui/activity/PaywallResult.kt#L13.

If you need access to those extra callbacks, currently the only way is to use the Paywall composable directly. If you're not using jetpack compose in your app, we would suggest wrapping our Paywall composable in your own Fragment/Activity, so you don't need to modify the rest of your app and you can add the PaywallListener there and handle these callbacks there.

Let us know if you have further questions or feedback, it would be greatly appreciated!

Hi again @Xendrez, we are studying our options for this. One of the main reasons this is not currently possible is that the caller activity will be paused once the paywall acitivity is displayed, so you can't change the UI once these callbacks are called until the paywall activity is called. Could you let us know what would be your use case for the restore callbacks when presenting the paywall as an activity? That might help inform us of missing functionality.

Aside from that, thanks to your feedback we also noticed that we currently don't auto-dismiss the paywall upon a restore if the requiredEntitlementIdentifier is granted after the restore. We will fix that on our end.

I haven't worked on the paywall for some time now. I will give further feedback when I'm back on it, which should be soon.

PaywallResultHandler

PaywallResultHandler works for Cancelled, Error and Purchased. But for Restored, it wont give a result back unless the Cancelled is called.

`override fun onActivityResult(result: PaywallResult) {
Log.d("Purchase_done", "Purchase Done. ${result}")
when (result) {

        is PaywallResult.Restored -> {
            Toast.makeText(
                requireContext(),
                "Purchase Restore complete.",
                Toast.LENGTH_SHORT
            ).show()
        }

`

Hi @angad305,

it wont give a result back unless the Cancelled is called.

I'm not sure I fully understand this. Do you mean that you're getting Cancelled instead of Restored? If that's the case, that's strange, I'm just testing it, and if the last operation before closing the paywall was a restore, it would return PaywallResult.Restored...

A few questions to try to debug this:

• What version of the SDK are you using?
• Are you starting a purchase AFTER restoring but BEFORE closing the paywall?
• Could you provide debug logs reproducing this issue?
