    that's information that is stored on apple's side (or google's side) so if an IAP was made, that information is saved to that persons apple id (or google equivalent) for any game, so when they use the restore a purchase button, the game "talks" to apple and says "hey, this guy ever buy anything in this app?" and apple shuffles it's papers and responds "yah he bought that viking helmet" and the app says "ok ill make it available to him again, thx"... it's a short conversation... this way if if their phone is ever reset or they uninstalled the app they don't have to buy the viking helmet again... the only work to do on your part is to place a button on your main menu or shop menu ui and select "Restore Purchases" in the drop down menu... add a graphic to it so it can be seen, and you're done... apple and google does the rest
