Dang this is hard  Here is what I did  to reject delete replace my ios build before it was released  The app was approved how ever I found found a bug I wanted to fix before releasing   I set release to  manual  and saved I tried to create and app release got an error message something like  you can only have one release at a time  where the save button was there was not an option to cancel release the version of the app is not marked  developer rejected  with a red dot   To replace the bad build I did the following   if you click on the    version or platform  to create a new version you will not be be able to create a new iOS version you need to upload a new build in your rejected app  select the new build save submit for review

Choose the build  The answer is that you Mouse over the icon for your build and at the end of the line you ll see a little colored minus in a circle  This removes the build and you can now click on the   sign and choose a new build for submitting   It is an unbelievably complicated web page with tricks and gizmos to do the thing you want  I m sure Steve never saw this page or tried to use it   Surely it s better practice to design the screen so that you can see the options all the time  not to have the screen change depending on whether you have an app in review or not

In our case  deletion was not possible due to already having an app that we were in pre-release  The fix was not to delete but rather to edit each section  including version number  that needed to change for the new candidate

As I understand the new iTunesConnect philosophy      you can upload some multiple  eligible  builds to iTunesConnect int the  pre release  tab let some other testers test a specific build  via TestFlight  and declared as iTunesConnect users  when you come to a stable version  select the correct build version  from the  Versions  tab to submit to the AppStore  the usual way    To me  you can have like 150 build for a pre release  it doesn t matter

Wait  You can expire a build actually     After 2017 Solution  Still same at 2021  From the homepage  click My Apps  select your app   Click the TestFlight tab   In the sidebar  below Builds  click the platform  iOS or tvOS    In the table on the right  in the Build column  click the app icon or build string for the build that is missing compliance information    5 Click Expire Build   Ta-da  Build expired at the App Store Connect  Means   Internal testers and external testers will no longer be able to install this build  You can remove a build from being the current build But  You cannot delete it from App Store Connect  iTunes Connect   Required roles  Account Holder Admin App Manager  See Role permissions  For more information please visit

I had this problem  I ll share my ride on the learning curve   First  I couldn t find how to reject the binary but remembered seeing it earlier today in the iTunesConnect App  So using the App I rejected the binary   If you  mouse over  the rejected binary under the  Build  section you ll notice that a red circle icon with a -  i e  a delete button  appears  Tap on this and then hit the save button at the top of the screen  Submitted binary is now gone   You should now get all the notifications for the app being in state  Prepare for Upload   email  App notification etc    Xcode organiser was still giving me  Redundant Binary    After a bit of research I now understand the difference between  Version   amp   Build   Version is what iTunes displays and the user sees  Build is just the internal tracking number  I had both at 2 3 0  I changed build to 2 3 0 1 and re-Archive  Now it validates and I can upload the new binary and re-submit  Hope that helps others
