Uploading screenshots for an update to my app is consistently failing today. Dragging and dropping the image into the field shows the spinner fill then the image appears. The save button never enables.

If I change some other metadata the save button appears. Clicking it works but then the "uploaded" image has a big red explanation point on it. Hovering the image states IMAGE_TOOL_FAILURE.

Is there anything I can do on my end to get this working or is it a bug in App Store Connect? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

This is a bug in App Store Connect. Today I have uploaded screenshots, they have the spinner on them and then they appear. I can rearrange the order. Then randomly they are being replaced with a red box with red exclamation point and the IMAGETOOLFAILURE on hover.

Is there any news about this? It's also happening to me.

I use GIMP to paste my macOS screen shots and export them to png. I also met IMAGE_TOOL_FAILURE problem. Finally, I work around this problem by changing one GIMP png export option from "automatic pixelformat" to "16bpc RGBA!" However, I don't know what happened.

I was able to resolve this by changing my local file name to have a -1 and re-uploaded the image. This worked fine. It appears this issue happens when uploading multiple screenshots at once. Only 1 image is uploaded and the others appear as errored. If you remove these, I think Apple must be still storing the file names somewhere. It seems like the bug keeps occurring when you upload the same file name

Dealing with the same challenge: after uploading the screenshots they appear. Then randomly they are being replaced with a red box with red exclamation point and the IMAGETOOLFAILURE on hover.
