Is it possible to test the app with this status "Pending Developer Release" to test flight. Before moving to app store i need to test my app.
Actually yes there is an old tip !
Go to you app page on itunes Connect and at the bottom of the page click the Promo Codes link.
Generate a link and use it in the App Store Application at the very bottom of the first page.
I am on the French store but in English it should be something like use a codeor redeem.
Enter your code and it will download the Pending Developer Release build

In my iOS app, I have used FacebookSDK and sharing features. For that I have included permission for publish_actions at login time. As per Facebook guideline you have to submit your app for review if you are using FacebookSDK.
So I have submitted my application for Facebook review along with simulator build, some descriptions, screencast (video or images) for how app is posted on Facebook. But Facebook rejects my app and I can’t identify reason.
It shows reason is cant get item 1 of {}. Any one have any idea why build is rejected and how Facebook review apps.
I faced same issue, when I have uploaded app for Facebook review it rejected two times. Here are couple of things you should look on them :
Login on Facebook for Developers
Go to App Review from left panel
From above screen shot click on first edit notes
Check respective check box as per your requirements.
Select one option from radio buttons as per your requirements.
Add step by step description of How your app use FacebookSDK here also include credentials (Facebook username and password which does not used before) for testing.
At last upload video as screencast (Your application video how it works with Facebook and you have to show how it look on your timeline on Facebook)
Click on Save.
Now from above screen shot click on second edit notes
Add test user if you want to add.
Select different build, upload build (which built with simulator) there and save.
Now hit on Submit For Review
Then also if any case you get rejected, Click on Green Have Question button. Add manager as your app name and select, then ask question to support team that what is the problem with your build and what is reason for reject. They will reply and you will find solution.
Currently i am working in iPhone app, I have successfully upload iPhone app in itunes connect, noe i got some error in that app and fixed now, then i tried to upload a new build in same binary, is it possible? How to replace app, while waiting for review in itunes connect? please help me
Thanks in Advance
There is an option to Cancel the binary in iTunes. Select that and upload the new binary.
Open Itunes account.
Perform following steps
Select Manage Your Applications
Click on the application
Click on View details
Click on Binary Details under Links
Select 'Reject Binary' in the upper right corner
The other answers are outdated since Apple changed the UI in iTunes Connect. This is how it works now:
You first must upload a new binary using xCode or Application Builder (having a greater build number otherwise you won't be able to upload)
A "remove app version" button will appear in itunes connect, in the app details page, it is pretty visible and emphasized, you can't miss it. This will not actually delete the app version... it will just reject your binary. Your app version with all the details will be preserved.
After you press that your app status will be "developer rejected". Select the newly uploaded build for the new app version and click save.
Now your app status will be "preparing for submission". Press submit for review.
Note that the steps are referring to the case when you are submitting a new app version of an app but I imagine the steps are very similar for the case of a new app.
Use the "Reject binary" button so you can upload a new one. You'll go back to end of the approval queue.
After following Sahil's answer, your status will change to "Developer Rejected". You will need to go into "View Details", click on "Ready to Upload Binary", and follow the steps. This will change your status back to "Waiting for Upload" at which point you will be able to submit a new version.
Just one slight correction, when you say "you can't miss it", you underestimated me :-) I've gone through App Store, Features, TestFlight and Activity, and see no button labeled "Remove App Version". In my list of builds, Build # 4 is Waiting for Review, but I want Apple to review Build 6. If I click on Build # 4 ... I have some info about it, but nothing that lets me delete.
click on Waiting for review
click on remove this version from the review. this action will ONLY remove the build, not the screenshot, description etc.. so no worries..
submit new build
1) First you have to "Reject the Binary".
Now you can edit your App in itunes connect. But before that first upload your changed (new) code. You'll probably have to get a new build number for it.
2) Now comes the tricky part. You have to remove the connection between the App definition in iTunes connect and the binary. It did cost me 25 minutes before I found it where that can be done.
In the details of the App is the build information. When you move over the date, a small stop sign will appear. That is the one you are looking for. Press it and delete the binary from this version.
3) Now press SAVE (otherwise the new binary will not be listed).
4) By using the (+) you can add your new binary.
5) Submit for review again
There is now an information banner in blue (see image above) that let's you know how to remove your app from review.
"You can still edit all information while your version is waiting for review. To submit a new build, you must remove this version from review."
i am read this post In-app Purchase "ready to submit", but won't let me submit it i will see one answer below :
#Ran :I was having the same problem. It would not let me submit my In app purchases to my app, which I uploaded shortly beforehand. I had to reject the binary, then follow the directions below to add the IAP to the app version before uploading.
Go to iTunes Connect
Click on Manage your applications
Click on the App
Click "View Details" button
Scroll down until you see an "In App Purchase" Section
Add your In App Purchase to that version.
Then ready your app for upload.
Once these steps are complete, the In App Purchase should automatically change from "Ready to Submit" to "Waiting for Review".
in this i am following steps but i am stuck on step: Scroll down until you see an "In App Purchase" Section
i am not find my application link can't find InAppPurchase link
i am see find links below screen shot:
how to find InAppPurchase link on my app on iTunes connect..!
Please Help with me greatly appreciated..!
THANKS!
You can see the InAppPurchase Link in Manage Application -> open your application there you will find some links like pricing and some as shown in figure.
This will work if and only if you enable InAppPurchase in your application bundle id in developer.apple.com
if you press View details
like this button this will take to description page there you will not find InAppPurchase
you can find only these option so check in before page ie. Manage Application - > go to your application
I have created a newsstand app and have everything working. The only issues I have now are:
When I click 'subscribe' and the dialogue box pops up to confirm the in app purchase it says
Confirm Subscription
Do you want subscribe to Unknown App for free?
[Environment: Sandbox]
Why does it say Unknown App? Everything else works (receipt validation, completing the transaction & co.)
Also, will the [Environment: Sandbox] go away automatically once I upload it to the app store and download it for real? Is there something in my code that I am missing that sends the in app purchase request to the sandbox? Or is it just because i am using a test device that has the app compiled onto it from XCode.
If your app is not in app store, it shows you the [Environment: Sandbox]. It will automatically go away once you uploaded app and your app is in app store.
For "Unknown App":
You need to add text in inApp purchase section in iTunes connect. If you haven't done that it will show you "Unknown App" on message which comes on iOS pop-up.When you activate in-app purchase by filling all information in inApp purchase section, pop-up will not show you "Unknown App", rather the pop-up will mention your app name.
Hope this will help you.
If your app is not in app store, it shows you the [Environment: Sandbox]. it will automatically will go away once you uploaded and your app is in app store.
If your binary has been rejected by Apple, the IAP products submitted with it should also show up as rejected. When you try and purchase a rejected IAP within the app, the confirmation screen will show the aforementioned "Do you want to buy one Unknown App...".
To correct this you should be able to make a small change to each IAP product in iTunes Connect. Then simply change it back, then the rejected flag should go away (and be replaced by waiting for review. For example, I added an 's' to the Display Name for the English language of each product. Then went right back in and removed the 's'.
This may not be acceptable to Apple if the reason for your rejection centers around your use of In-App Purchases.
I suggest to check your itunesconnect account.
Goto your Specific App "NewStandApp" .-> Manage InAppPurchases. Now check Reference Name you have Added with your ProductID.
Product_Id your are referring in project/app (sandbox environment) might be connected with app name "Unknown app"
I have some in-app purchases setup for an application. The in-app purchases are all tested, and working great - however I can't submit them for review. I submitted the application binary for review, then visited the in-app purchase section. All of the in-app purchases say: "Ready to Submit", but the "Submit for Review" button is greyed out, and un-clickable.
When apple reviews the actual application, will they also just review the in-app purchases for it? Or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks.
Update: I don't know if it was by switching to Chrome, or by waiting 30 minutes or so, but it enabled me to submit my in-app-purchases for review.
I was having the same problem. It would not let me submit my In app purchases to my app, which I uploaded shortly beforehand. I had to reject the binary, then follow the directions below to add the IAP to the app version before uploading.
Go to iTunes Connect
Click on Manage your applications
Click on the App
Click "View Details" button
Scroll down until you see an "In App Purchase" Section
Add your In App Purchase to that version.
Then ready your app for upload.
Once these steps are complete, the In App Purchase should automatically change from "Ready to Submit" to "Waiting for Review".
There are several things that needs to be checked first before submitting an app with in-app purchase :
Enable in-app feature in your "Identifiers -> App IDs". This is
usually automatically enabled by Apple by default
Ensure the correct link from your "Provisioning Profile" to the "App IDs"
above, which has in-app feature
Build your file with the correct "Provisioning Profile".
Before you update the binary, you must set up the in-app in iTunes. Goto the :
"Manage In-app Purchases", and add/setup your pricing, description, etc in there. If you don't see this, then you will need to create a new version of your app first.
Once done, it will change to "Submit Binary File"
Now, update the new version description and select the correct in-app that you just created.
Upload the binary file to Apple using Xcode, and status should change to "Waiting for Review".
I had the same problem. For me the solution was simple. I was using Firefox and couldn't see the checkboxes to submit the purchases. Simply switch from Firefox to Chrome and you'll see the boxes again to check off and submit.
Another variation, the state of the app within itunes connect was wrong. I had to upload the binary then go to the binary details panel and reject this binary before I was able to see the check marks in the inapp purchase section of the app summary.
Use the "View Details" button and go to the bottom of the page, in the "In-App Purchases" section use the link "Manage In-App Purchase", do "Select All" and submit any no. of products for review along with the binary. Additional in-app products can be added from the Application summary "Manage In-App Purchase" button using the table provided.
It's been more than a decade since this question was opened. It is ridiculous that Appls IAP submission is still confusing. Ryan's answer saved my ass, I just would like to make minor updates to keep it up to date, and hope it will save others' time.
If you missed to submit an IAP, and the App is already in the wild, prepare for a new submission. If you cannnot submit an IAP, and your App was already submitted/approved, just reject it. After you get a new binary uploaded, do the following:
Go to App Store Connect
Click on My Apps
Click on the App
Click "In-App Purchases" under the "Features" section on the left side, make sure your IAPs are ready for review
Click "Prepare for Submission" under the top-left "iOS App" section
Scroll down until you see an "In App Purchase" section
Add your IAPs to that version
Add your binary to that version
You are ready to go
