iOS Shipping builds upload to Testflight but disappear after a few minutes of Processing

Since upgrading to Unreal 5.1.1 our Shipping builds fail Testflight processing.

altool validation : ok
altool upload : ok
Can see the build appear on Testflight, “processing”
After a few minutes, it just disappears.

AppStoreConnect support has so far failed to be helpful, any ideas are welcome.

Answer : Disable bitcode. From Xcode 14 release notes:
the App Store no longer accepts [Shipping] bitcode submissions from Xcode 14. [for Shipping builds, it seems]```

The other solution was to “Expire Build” all the “Ready to Submit” builds from the Testflight in apple dev site.

Hi. Can I ask how exactly you disable Bitcode? I tried Support bitcode in Shipping but I don’t think that worked

You need to uncheck “Support Bitcode in Shipping”

However, you can still have an issue if you are using plugins that have a pre-compiled component or framework in them. That pre-compiled piece may have bitcode in it. This is what happened to me and it was a pain to deal with.

Look in each of your plugins and if there is a .zip somewhere in the source folder then that might be your culprit.
