App download from Test Flight crashed immediately
My app crashes immediately when downloaded from TestFlight. When built directly from Xcode it works fine. Xcode version: 16.3 iOs device: iPhone 13, iOs 18.3.2 Error: Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000 Termination Reason: DYLD 4 Symbol missing Symbol not found: _$s11DappBrowser27WalletConnectCryptoProviderC0cD6Signer0eF0AadEP9keccak256y10Foundation4DataVAJFTW The same source code previously worked fine when using Xcode 15.3 to upload to Test Flight.

Xcode Archive API Key Error
I am creating an AI powered mobile application for my university dissertation that utilises Google Gemini in order to generate tailored responses with a prerequisite prompt. In order to facilitate this, I use an API key which allows the communication to be made. I received an email upon archiving my application that informed me that: ITMS-90683: Missing purpose string in Info.plist - Your app’s code references one or more APIs that access sensitive user data, or the app has one or more entitlements that permit such access. The Info.plist file for the “Amrit AI.app” bundle should contain a NSSpeechRecognitionUsageDescription key with a user-facing purpose string explaining clearly and completely why your app needs the data. If you’re using external libraries or SDKs, they may reference APIs that require a purpose string. While your app might not use these APIs, a purpose string is still required." I have since made the adjustments to my info.plist by adding a description as to why the API key is being used. However, it still has not rectified the issue. I have contacted multiple apple support lines and none of them have been able to help with my error. I am under extreme pressure to upload this application to the App Store before my dissertation deadline as the reviews are critical to my evaluation section. Any help would be much appreciated.

App tested in TestFlight with renewal billing issue on iOS 18.4
Recently, one of our developer, running on an iOS 18.4 device, encountered a strange system screen suggesting that there is a billing issue. Our app has a subscription plan. In the past, during testing, we just purchase the subscription, use it for a few days, then purchase it again. But it does not work now. The system consistently prompts the screen and prompts us to enable "Purchase and renewal" (rough translation by me) to renew the subscription. But as far as I understand, this is only for testing IAP using sandbox users, which we cannot do with TestFlight apps. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Is there a temporary workaround?

TestFlight Distribution Lag
Lately TestFlight has been having unexpected delays for me. For context, I have an app that I am just testing internally right now, so whenever I have a new build the process I follow is: Upload build to App Store Connect Wait for build to finish processing (typically less than a minute) Add compliance info in App Store Connect Wait for build to be distributed via TestFlight For the last few months, after I entered the compliance info, my app would be available for TestFlight distribution almost immediately after I entered the compliance info. I would get the email notification and I could see my new build on TestFlight. I am getting the notifications from App Store Connect that my build has completed processing within a minute or two of uploading it. Then, I enter the compliance information in App Store Connect. Lately, it has been taking multiple hours in between when I provide the compliance info and when the new build is available on TestFlight though. So there is a seemingly random time period in between when I enter the compliance information and when the app is actually distributed to TestFlight. I am not sure why this process that used to be immediate now has multiple hours of lag. There also does not appear to be any way for me to manually check on the status or anything. After I enter the compliance info, it is an entirely hidden and automated process to then push that build out to TestFlight. Is there anything I can do to improve this, or are there any known causes for this issue? I have tried re-submitting another new build version to try and "flush the pipeline", and that worked once before, but it doesn't appear to be working anymore.

TESTFLIGHT: The requested app is not available or doesn t exist
Hello, I created an app using the latest version of Xcode (16.2), and I'm having a problem testing this app on my iPhones. I created this app just like all the others I've made for my clients, including one on (03/24/25), but when I went to upload another App to App Store Connect on (03/26/25) I couldn't test it on my phone. Points to consider: The app runs perfectly on the Emulator. All my terms and agreements with Apple are up to date. I tried to download the apps through Testflight on 2 different devices, iPhone 7 Plus (iOS 15.8.1) and iPhone 15 Pro Max (iOS 18.3.2), and I was unsuccessful in neither attempt. I can send my app to the internal testers, but when I click download, the following message appears: Could not install [APP NAME]. The requested App is not available or doesn't exist. I imagine this problem is with Apple itself, I have already contacted support, but I need to resolve this urgently for my customers. Has anyone experienced this and resolved it?

Unable to add build to group on testfight
In App Store Connect I've uploaded a new build, but I'm unable to distribute the App to my tester groups - including internal. The internal group is grayed out. I am able to Select an External group but they actually do not receive any email notification nor do they see any update within their TestFlight App. I've attempted to upload the build a few times, including old builds which had been distributed in the past to no avail. I'm not able to distribute to any tester group, please advise.

Internal testers cannot see new version of app in TestFlight
I archived and distributed a new version of my app (with new build number) and it shows up in the Appstore connect (no issues here). But the new version doesn't show up in the Testflight app, nor did the internal testers receive any email regarding the new update. I have waited for 3 hours now, and still no progress on this. This issue is happening out of the blue. The whole process was working fine yesterday. I did a couple of things to debug this issue, along with: Changed build version couple of times Reset provisioning profile Created new testing group, added users, added build manually No matter what I do, I'm unable to get the new version of the app to show in the Testflight app for my internal testers. I have also contacted apple support via email, waiting for their response. Any help appreciated! Thanks

TestFlight group selection disabled for 'Ready to Test' build — Tried 3 builds, same issue
Hello, I uploaded a new iOS build (1.0.1 - Build 180) to App Store Connect for my app "Benimle Konus". The build has been processed successfully and is marked as "Ready to Test". However, when I try to assign this build to any internal TestFlight group, the group checkboxes are greyed out and cannot be selected. I’ve made sure that: All required metadata is filled out. What’s New and compliance information is complete. Previous builds worked with the same TestFlight groups. To fix this, I have uploaded 3 separate builds, but the issue still persists with all of them. There are no error messages, but I can't continue testing because I can't assign the build to testers. App ID: 6742759002 Bundle ID: com.benimlekonus.app Build Version: 1.0.1 (180) Is this a known issue or something I'm missing? Any help would be appreciated.

Seems that recent TestFlight update (3.8.0) is broken on iOS 14.1. It crashes on launch. It worked fine on the same device just few days ago (I assumed it was 3.7.1). I uninstalled the TF and installed it again but it doesn't help. Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000 Exception Note: EXC_CORPSE_NOTIFY Triggered by Thread: 0 Attached is the crash report. I would appreciate if you guys can quickly fix it, or provide a solution. Thank you. Crash report
