Building an app? Get the help you need to actually ship it: 👉 https://kealy.studio?utm_source=revenuecat Is RevenueCat confusing you? You're not imagining it. Before you sit through a 45-minute tutorial just so someone can pay you $2.99 a month, it helps to understand why in-app payments work the way they do, and why asking AI to "set up payments, no mistakes" won't make the complexity go away. In this shallow dive: what RevenueCat actually does (it's not a payment processor like Stripe), how Apple, Google and web purchases get tied to your own users, what entitlements are, and what the Epic vs Apple ruling really means for external payments in the US. Plus a plain-English map of products, packages, offerings and paywalls, so the tutorials finally make sense. React Native tutorial I recommend: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3fLKC-2Qh0
