App updates via TestFlight - TestFlight crashes?

We submitted a version 1.0 of our app for testing via testflight and after a few problems with the upload eventually got it working and installed on a Apple TV device.

We then submitted a version 1.1 of the app and promoted it to test in testflight. On the Apple TV device we opened testflight and saw that a new version was available but as soon as we selected it the testflight app 'crashed' and returned to the Apple TV home screen. Now every time we try to open testflight on the device it does a bit of processing and then closes.

Is it possible to submit new versions via testflght or is this another issue with the current beta? Have tried switching off and then on again etc but the problem still remains. If anyone else has had any success with this would be interested to find out if there is a different way of approaching it!

I ran into a similar problem a few days ago with TestFlight crashing. In my case, I'd used the Apple TV's software update feature to go from beta 1 to beta 2. It wasn't until I installed beta 2 directly from iTunes that TestFlight worked properly.

I was already on beta 2 but I restored to the latest download from dev center (beta 3).

Hasn't fixed the problem though - the download progress gets to a certain point (about 75%) and then something pops up saying the app couldn't be installed at this time.

I'll try compiling another version to see if that makes a difference.

Update : compiling a new version didn't seem to fix anything but then the next day I compiled another version and it worked. Hadn't updated anything on my build machine or changed any code so maybe this is just some kind of intermittent issue.
