Hello, I am unable to use TestFlight for any app (existing or new), while production uploads work normally. All TestFlight actions fail with: ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING There are no pending agreements in App Store Connect. This is an older account that previously used TestFlight successfully. This appears to be a missing or detached TestFlight Beta contract on Apple’s backend. Could this be manually reattached or re-provisioned? Apple App ID: 6825656840 Thank you.

Hi, I’m experiencing a TestFlight issue affecting multiple apps in my account. Issue summary: • Several TestFlight builds across all of my apps expired at the same time. • After uploading new replacement builds, neither I nor my testers are able to install them. • Installation fails with the message: “Could not install {App Name}. The requested app is not available or doesn’t exist.” • The build shows as processed and available in App Store Connect. • Testers are already invited and active. • No redeem code is required. I am seeing the same issue on my own device as well. What I’ve tried: • Uploading new builds (incremented version + build number). • Confirmed builds are visible and available in App Store Connect. • Removing and re-adding testers. • Logging out of the app. • Deleting the app from the device. • Restarting the device. • Reinstalling directly from TestFlight. • Restarting TestFlight. Despite this, installation consistently fails with the “requested app is not available or doesn’t exist” error. Expected behavior: • New TestFlight builds should be installable once processed and available. • Testers (and the developer) should be able to install directly from TestFlight. • Expired builds should not block installation of newly uploaded builds. Additional context: • This started immediately after multiple TestFlight builds expired across my apps. • All affected apps were previously installing and testing without issue. • Apple Developer Support has been contacted, but I wanted to check whether others are seeing the same behavior or if there is a known workaround. Has anyone else encountered TestFlight builds becoming unavailable across multiple apps at once, or an install failure after replacing expired builds

Hello, New individual developer account (enrolled October 2026). My first iOS app cannot be tested via TestFlight. 1) Internal testing: builds 1.1.2 (16), (17), (18) and (19) all show "Testing" in my internal group. Two different internal testers (Account Holder and a Marketing-role user) on two different iPhones (iOS 26) get: "Could not install. The requested app is not available or doesn't exist." App Store Connect shows 2 invites but 0 installs for every build. 2) External testing: when I add build 19 to an external group and press "Submit for Review", App Store Connect says: "There was an error processing your request. Please try again later." Already checked: membership active, Free Apps Agreement active, export compliance answered, build metadata "Validated" (SDK 23F81a, min iOS 15.0), pricing Free and available in Türkiye, testers accepted the invitations, TestFlight reinstalled, devices restarted. Developer Support case: 102998773608 (opened October 16, no reply yet) Feedback: FB25298826 Screenshots attached: (1) the install error on iPhone (Turkish UI: "Could not install ASG – Afyon Scooter Derneği. The requested app is not available or doesn't exist."), (2) the App Store Connect error when submitting build 19 to the external group. I don't have a Mac, so I can't attach Xcode device logs; builds are made with Codemagic. Could someone from Apple please check whether a TestFlight/beta setting is missing on my account? Thank you.

Hi all, is anyone else seeing this since switching to Xcode 27.1? Since Oct 20, none of my new TestFlight builds will install. TestFlight shows the “Update” button, then fails with “Could not install [app]. The requested app is not available or doesn’t exist” (sometimes “Try again later” first). What I’ve checked: Upload from Xcode 27.1 (27A9275) succeeds, no ITMS warnings, build status “Valid”, and I get the “ready to test on iOS and watchOS” email The exact same archive installs and runs fine when installed directly from Xcode on the same device (development signing) Device: iPhone 15, iOS 27.0.1 Agreements are active, export compliance answered (ITSAppUsesNonExemptEncryption = NO) Entitlements and Info.plist are identical to my last build made with Xcode 26.5, which installed fine through TestFlight Tried bumping the build number, closing TestFlight, waiting a few hours: same result The only real difference is the toolchain (Xcode 26.5 / iOS 26.5 SDK → Xcode 27.1 / iOS 27.1 SDK). The app also embeds a watchOS app. Has anyone hit this with Xcode 27.x? Did you find a fix, or did Apple support resolve it on their side? “Membership active until January 2027. The updated agreements were accepted on Sunday Oct 18; the TestFlight failures started on Oct 20.” Thanks!

Since 19 Oct 2026, TestFlight is blocked for my whole team, not for a single app. Account Team ID: 95MF867832 (individual account, I am the Account Holder) Apps: 6819072253 and 6748716751 What happened On 19 Oct 2026 at 06:13 PDT every TestFlight build on the team expired at the same second, including builds that still had weeks left. A new build uploaded on 20 Oct is VALID (expires Jan 2027), but submitting it to Beta App Review fails: App Store Connect web: "There was an error processing your request. Please try again later." API POST /v1/betaAppReviewSubmissions: 422 ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING ("Beta contract is missing for the app"). Internal testers cannot install either: "The requested app is not available or doesn't exist". Retried hourly through 23 Oct: still 422. Already checked All agreements are Active, nothing pending. The Paid Apps Agreement was activated on 13 Oct 2026. A fresh build did not help. App Store review submission itself works (an App Store version was submitted on 23 Oct); only TestFlight is affected. Reported Feedback Assistant: FB25290077 Developer Support case: 103005423668 Other developers report the same error in thread 813703, which suggests a backend issue with the TestFlight beta contract after an agreement change. Could someone from Apple please route this to the TestFlight team to re-attach the beta contract? Thank you.

WHY IS TESTFLIGHT REVEIW NOT INSTANT THIS IS COMPLETE BS SHIP MY APP NOW I AM LOSING TIME WAIT FOR THIS BS WALLED GARDEN TO MOVE

Hello, Every submission of our builds to external TestFlight testing (Beta App Review) fails with: 422 ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING The error is returned by POST /iris/v1/betaAppReviewSubmissions. Account status as of October 21, 2026: Free Apps Agreement: Active (Oct 14, 2026 – Jul 13, 2027) Updated Program License Agreement: accepted DSA trader status: Active Builds 2 and 4: VALID, not expired, externalBuildState = READY_FOR_BETA_SUBMISSION Test Information: all fields filled in The error first appeared while the updated Program License Agreement was still pending. Accepting it did not resolve the issue. This looks like the same problem reported in https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/814565 (also threads 815875, 815885, 821498 and 809728). In that thread the issue was fixed on Apple's side by recreating the team-level beta contract record. As far as we know there is nothing a developer can do from App Store Connect. Team ID: B7XHH6RU95 Developer Support case: 102996652296 Feedback Assistant: FB25275230 Could someone at Apple please check the beta contract record for our team? Thank you.

Why is TestFlight review taking so long!!! This shoulld be instantly approved what kinda BS is this...

Hi everyone, I'm an independent developer and designer, and I've just opened my first public TestFlight beta for an app called Paddock. It's an iOS 26 app to keep track of your cars: maintenance, fuel costs, wheel sets and history, with the data stored on the device. I'm still learning how to run a beta well, so I'd really value advice from people who've been through this: Testers. What worked best for you to find real testers (public link, groups, communities)? How did you keep them engaged after the first install? Feedback. How do you collect it so it's useful? Do you rely on TestFlight feedback, a form, email? Is there something you wish you had asked from the start? What to Test and onboarding. What do you put in the beta description and the test notes so testers know what to try without feeling like it's homework? Builds. Any tips for pacing builds and keeping the 90-day expiry from catching you off guard? Beta App Review. Anything that tends to trip up first-time submissions? If you'd like to try it and tell me what feels off, the beta is here: https://testflight.apple.com/join/qup6rF31 It needs iOS 26. Honest criticism is the most useful thing you can give me. Thanks for reading, and for any advice. Arturo

Hello Apple Developer Team, I am experiencing a serious TestFlight issue affecting multiple applications under my Apple Developer account. The issue started on October 9, 2026. 1. All existing TestFlight builds suddenly expired On October 9, all previously available TestFlight builds across multiple applications unexpectedly changed to "Expired" at the same time. These applications were previously available for testing. 2. Newly uploaded builds cannot be installed I uploaded new builds to replace the expired ones. The uploads completed successfully, and App Store Connect shows the new builds as "Ready for Internal Testing." For example: App: Mai Anh Kiếm Version: 1.0 Build: 135 TestFlight shows approximately 89 days remaining. However, when an internal tester taps Install or Update, TestFlight displays the following error: "Could not install Mai Anh Kiếm. The requested app is not available or doesn't exist." Therefore, even newly uploaded builds cannot be installed through internal testing. 3. External Beta App Review submission fails When I attempt to submit a new build for external TestFlight review, App Store Connect returns HTTP 422 with the following error: ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING Error detail: "Beta Contract is missing." 4. Account information I am the Account Holder and Admin. My Free Apps Agreement and Paid Apps Agreement are both Active. New builds can be uploaded and processed successfully. The issue affects multiple applications, not just one app. 5. Apple Developer Support response I contacted Apple Developer Support. Support Case ID: 102990933108 Apple Support confirmed that build 1.0 (135) is ready for internal testing, but this does not resolve the actual problem: internal testers still cannot install the build. My questions: Why did all existing TestFlight builds suddenly expire at the same time? Why are newly uploaded builds unavailable for installation, even for internal testers? What causes BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING when all visible agreements are active? Could this indicate an account-level TestFlight distribution or Beta Contract issue that requires intervention from Apple? Could an Apple TestFlight engineer please investigate this issue or advise how to get it escalated? I can provide screenshots of the installation error and the API response. Thank you for your assistance.

I submitted my app for TestFlight review about 3 weeks ago and it is still "waiting for review". How can it be? I think something wrong is going on. Please advise.

Hello, Our team is completely blocked from distributing builds via TestFlight due to the following backend API error: { "errors" : [ { "status" : "422", "code" : "ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING", "title" : "Beta contract is missing for the app.", "detail" : "Beta Contract is missing." } ] } Account & App Details: • App ID: 6817838147 • Existing Case IDs: 102986964055, 102986683221 • Agreements, Tax, and Banking: All Active and signed This appears to be a known backend desync where the TestFlight Beta contract is detached from our account/app. Could an Apple engineer or moderator please help escalate this to internal App Store Connect engineering to re-provision/re-attach our TestFlight beta contract? Thank you.

I am unable to proceed with TestFlight in App Store Connect. The operation returns HTTP 422 with code ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING, detail "Beta Contract is missing", and title "Beta Contract is missing for the app." I have already opened a support case about this issue, but have not received a response, and the problem is still occurring. What does this error mean, where can I check or accept the required beta agreement, and what steps can resolve it if the agreement is not available in App Store Connect?

The requested app is not available or doesnt exist. and also i cant add external testers, i get the error "errors" : [ { "id" : "512439fe-9892-4dc1-a260-22ff0908e15d", "status" : "422", "code" : "ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING", "title" : "Beta contract is missing for the app.", "detail" : "Beta Contract is missing." } ] } Sample app with apple ID 6821153194

I purged my DerivedData folder then did a clean build of my app using Xcode 27.2 RC. I then submitted my build through the Organizer window. I then logged into App Store Connect. When I try to submit the build for external testing, App Store Connect is giving me an error that beta tools can't be used. I'm not using beta tools. I'm using release candidate tools. Less important but I thought beta tools could be used for testing. Anyway, is this an AppStore Connect issue or am I doing something wrong?

None of my apps are available on testflight - any app I attempt to install results in the error 'Could not install [title of my app] This has been an issue for 2 months now, and all my apps have been stuck on Waiting for Review as well which I believe is related to this considering no app has been approved since this issue has come up

For the last 24 hours any app I push to my internal test flight when a user try’s to download they get “the requested app does not exist“ this hasn’t happened before the same app was working the previous day, previous versions that worked now also don’t work inopened a support case 24 hours ago and have yet to hear back, this is hampering me being able to update my app . trying to create a public test flight now also just errors with “please try again later”
