Hello,
We are experiencing an issue with one of our apps, when setting the option "Automatically release this version after App Review, no earlier than" to a specified date and time is not working as it should. I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same issue?
we end up manually releasing the app but it defeats the purpose of having such an option and not functioning.
Cheers!

Same here, we have been experiencing about the same time as you have been.

Yes, we are using App Store Connect API to upload our binaries.

We are using the App Store Connect API for our normal release with the option " Automatically release this version" and that works fine without any issues.

For our next release, we will not use the App Store Connect API to upload our binary and see if this works (I see you mentioned that it worked for you)

I think this narrows down the issue when using the option "Automatically release this version after App Review, no earlier than" and using the App Store Connect API to upload the binary is clearly not working.

I have opened a case with Apple and they suggested contacting them when we're ready thus they can try reproducing such issue from their end.

Same here, experiencing this issue since the middle of last month.
Did you use App Store Connect API to upload binaries?
We did, and wondering if it has something to do with the issue... because our release on the beginning of last month, which was NOT uploaded with App Store Connect API, was released successfully at specified date.
