I have validated the app’s success after having downgraded Xcode to 13.4.1.

I’m happy to say I’ve built two apps using RN 0.70 + Xcode 14, pushed them to TestFlight, got the warning this thread is all about, submitted them, and they passed Review process with no issues whatsoever.

Update: I just noticed despite the app store connect message saying it is an “error”, the title of the window does say “Distribution completed with warnings”.

I was solved this problem by downgrade Minimum Deployment. The Minimum Deployment was 12.4, but when I changed it to 12.0, it was uploaded correctly.

Confirmed. The uploaded build worked well.

The minimum iOS version change to 11.0 did not do the trick for me. So I left it at 12.0.

I submitted and got my app approved with the errors twice now. I think we can ignore the errors for now.

finally I solve the problem => 1: Minimum Deployments IOS version change from 12.4 to 12.0. 2: rebuild the app

RN: 0.70.6 Xcode: 14.1

The Minimum Deployment was 12.4, but when I changed it to 11.0, it was uploaded correctly.

Weird! Just minutes later I get a notification that it has uploaded and it is ready to be tested. Screenshot 2022-09-20 at 09 13 30
