When to switch from Sandbox to production StoreKit server?

appstore-sandbox, ios, ipad, iphone, storekit

Solution

I found an answer on the StoreKit FAQ:

What url should I use to verify my receipt (iOS)?

Use the sandbox URL https://sandbox.itunes.apple.com/verifyReceipt while testing your application in the sandbox and while your application is in review.

Use the production URL http://buy.itunes.apple.com/verifyReceipt once your application is live in the App Store.

The only thing I still don't understand is, what if I am not at my computer the moment the app goes live to make the switch?

Problem

I recently submitted an app to iTunes that has in-app purchases. At what specific time should I switch from using the sandbox server to the production server? Now? Or after it is approved? I can switch at anytime in my php file on my server. I looked at the StoreKit documentation, and they do not really make this clear. Thanks!
