Usually the when the application gets released in the Internal Channel, the build will get reflected instantly. Within a minute.
But strangely the build is not reflected even after a day. I am using the latest new Google console which displays the status as, ('Release not live' and not 'Being Reviewed')
Can you help to understand the behavior or the cases which might cause this
This was happening to me when published an open beta version, it was the first release so in my case it was not a superseded version problem. I fixed it by completing the "Feedback URL or email address" field in the Open testing > Testers (Tab).
After doing that the status changed from "Release not live" to "Available to unlimited testers" with the green icon.
I've found it by pure luck since Play Console does not indicate where is the problem.
This usually happens when you have a production bundle/apk with a version code greater than the Internal Track's bundle/apk version code. Check if that's the case.
I experienced the same thing. For me I had to complete the "Feedback URL or email address" field as stated above. Also in addition to that I had to go to App content and complete the Privacy Policy step. When I had declared that my app complied with Google Play Policies the status changed from "Release not live" to "Available to unlimited testers". Hope this helps someone.
I had another problem, so I summarize the both fixes.
Under Testing>Open testing>Testers fill the following
Your bundle/apkversion code may be greater than the Internal Track's bundle/apk version code.
If it's your case, you'll have to publish a newer version.
If the publishing overview is set to Managed publishing on it wont be released neither.
