问题
I understand that google does not allow the transfer of app ownership with in app-subscription from one developer account to another. I have been waiting for them to enable that feature but till now, it is not available and there is no ETA on it.
I have a paid app with in-app-subscription as part of it. A company is looking to acquire my app but the transfer is not possible. So I am thinking about alternatives.
Should I create another identifcal app and ask users in my old app to move to this new identical app. That will involve buying it again but I can provide incentive (like enabling the subscription feature to be free).. Other suggestions? Basically what would you do in my case
Thank you so much

Ask your new company owner to be added to your Google Play console as developer and give him access to financial data, so he could see income/revenue.
Create new app identical to the previous one, implement same subscriptions. This time in owners Google Play console.
Kindly ask your users to move to the new app and let them know that their subscriptions will be still active.
Implement on server side code to check if subscriptions are valid for particular users.
When new app is published, unpublish old app. I think subscribtions will be still active(check docs).
All new users will get subscriptions from new app.
Anyway you will have to introduce new SKU for subscriptions from time to time, because Google doesn't update prices, and currencies are changing every year.

You can transfer apps with in-app subsriptions to a new developer account. And you need pay extra attention to linked project if you used Play Developer APIs to verify the purchases or used other integrated services. After the transfering process, the renewal orders will be visible in the Play Console under the new developer account while the previous orders will only be visible under your current account.
