TestFlight Internal Testers Not Receiving Build Invitations After Processing Completed

Hi everyone,

I'm experiencing an issue with TestFlight where internal testers are not receiving build invitations, even though the builds have successfully completed processing in App Store Connect.

Builds Status:

• Multiple builds (Build 10, 11, 12) show "Ready to Submit" status in App Store Connect

• Build 9 is in "Waiting for Review" status

• All builds show "2 Invites" sent

• However, the new builds (9, 10, 11, 12) are not appearing in TestFlight for the internal testing group

Internal Testing Group:

• Group name: "Test" (Internal Group)

• 2 Testers configured

• 7 Builds total in the group

• The group shows builds 1.0 (2) through 1.0 (8) as "Testing" status

• New builds (9, 10, 11, 12) are missing from TestFlight

What I've Tried:

1. Manually adding the internal group to the new builds using the "Add Group" dialog(the Add button is inactive)

2. The system shows "2 Invites" sent in App Store Connect

3. Checked TestFlight app on testers' devices - no new builds visible

4. Waited more than 1 hour after builds completed processing

Expected Behavior

When adding an internal testing group to a build in App Store Connect, testers should:

1. Receive push notifications about the new build

2. See the new build available in their TestFlight app

3. Be able to install and test the build immediately

Actual Behavior

• App Store Connect shows invitations were sent (2 invites)

• TestFlight does not show the new builds (9, 10, 11, 12)

• Internal testers have not received any notifications

• Only older builds (2-8) are visible in TestFlight

Additional Context

• This issue started occurring today (January 15, 2026)

• Yesterday, I experienced extended build processing times (builds stuck in "Processing" for several hours), which appears to have been a widespread issue affecting multiple developers

• Once processing completed, the builds moved to "Ready to Submit" status normally

• The internal testing group worked fine for previous builds (2-8)

Questions

1. Has anyone else experienced this issue with TestFlight internal testing today?
2. Is there a known delay between adding a group in App Store Connect and builds appearing in TestFlight?
3. Could this be related to the processing delays that occurred yesterday?
4. Is there a way to manually trigger the invitation/notification system?

Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This is blocking our internal testing workflow.

Thanks in advance!
