I do see there is an "Availability Date" option. Which could work, but I need confirmation on the way I intend to use it:
- Set availability date far in the future (12 months) and submit my release ALPHA1 to app store
- Once I see my app is approved, then I will continue with normal development and make a release BETA2 5 days later
- I would want the BETA2 release to go live immediately and for the ALPHA1 release in the future to never occur.
