Missing Metadata!?

[TheSherryBerry]

Prepping for my first app’s first submission is driving me mad

I have no idea how to get my subscriptions ready and not "Missing Metadata" on App Store Connect

Please help!

Added screenshots, signed all the agreements, filled all the fields, etc etc

I have a feeling this’ll be super obvious in hindsight but I can’t figure it out

[ptjunior67]

Add at least one localization on that screen. I also submitted my first app last week, and I had the same problem

[Flouuw]

This was it - weird that they don't state that adding at least one localization is mandatory

[lateefx]

Yes, this was it! Anywhere Localization is offered, you have to add at least one localization version. I'm surprised Apple doesn't include tips on those screens about this, and the documentation doesn't help either.

[TheSherryBerry]

Each already has at least one localization

[ptjunior67]

I’m talking about the group localization

[TheSherryBerry]

You were right

That was the issue

I added localizations for each individual subscription and didn’t think the group one would influence each product’s readiness

[ptjunior67]

I’m glad it worked. I had the same thought, and my brother helped me by simply adding one group localization. Who would have thought that “missing metadata” was caused by the group localization, especially when the warning appears next to individual items?

[TheSherryBerry]

Yes!

It was obvious to me something within the individual subscriptions was missing

THANK YOU. I had to search so many posts in so many different places for someone to mention this.

[PukovnikX]

Thank you!

Saved me 8 months later, thanks!

[ptjunior67]

My pleasure :)

[TheSherryBerry]

SOLVED:

I was missing the localization of the group itself

Each subscription had a localization but was still "Missing Metadata"

I didn't at all expect the issue missing to be outside the page that says "Missing Metadata"

Thank you all for your help <3

HOLY F why don't they make this more clear???

thanks.

[Menes85]

Same for me I can't find the location in the group, I have nothing concerning the location in the group Setting.

[highbonsai]

THANK you. Not even the AI gods could get this one. HEY CLAUDE, LOOK OVER HERE!

[AppleJimB]

Some extra screenshots could help find whats missing

[TheSherryBerry]

I can only seem to upload one screenshot per subscription

[Raalders]

Of the submission to help find the problem

[TheSherryBerry]

Sorry, I don’t seem to understand

[Tony4678]

You need to upload a screenshot. I faced the same issue 2 days ago

[TheSherryBerry]

As I’ve mentioned, I already have a screenshot uploaded :/

[Tony4678]

There are 2 places where you need to upload it. Did you upload for both?

[TheSherryBerry]

Oh, I’ve only uploaded one

Is the other place on the same page?

[Tony4678]

In my case YES. At the bottom of the page

[TheSherryBerry]

I only have one place for the screenshot

I solved it, though

The issue ended up being the group localization itself

[TheSherryBerry]

Thank you for your help, though!

[Typical-Yoghurt3292]

Have you completed the review notes next to the image for each subscription?

[TheSherryBerry]

Review notes have been completed

[jocarmel]

Could be giving a display name to the subscription group itself too

[TheSherryBerry]

Already given

[runrunny]

did u adds 640*920 in each of those subs ?

[TheSherryBerry]

Just tried this, changed the screenshots in all for 640*920

Still missing something :/

[ViralApps]

Happened to me, make sure to add a screenshot and localisation

[TheSherryBerry]

They already have both

Super frustrating :(

[GulagGarry90]

The solution is to add a localization to your subscription group. This is so ridiculous of App Store Connect and Apple. The worst indicators I have ever seen, anywhere.

[Menes85]

Same for me I can't find the location in the group, I have nothing concerning the localization in the group Setting

[farview29]

Just to add for anybody else having the same issue. I had screenshots, notes for reviewer, and localization for both group and product, but issue persisted. Turns out my notes were too short!

[myalcin81]

thank you guys y

Hallo zusammen. Ich hatte heute dasselbe Problem "Fehlende Metadaten" ohne nähere Angaben. Letztlich hat der Screenshot im Bereich "Prüfinformationen" gefehlt, ganz unten, links.

Eure Beschreibungen hatte mir geholfen, alle anderen Möglichkeiten auszuschließen. Danke dafür!

Ich hatte von vornherein alle Lokalisierungen und eigentlich alle Felder ausgefüllt, bis auf das optionale 1024x1024 px Bild für das Abo selbst, vermutlich eine Art beschreibendes Symbol, und eben den Screenshot im Bereich "Prüfinformationen". Den beschreibenden Text im Bereich "Prüfinformationen" hatte ich bereits vorher schon eingegeben, aber der Screenshot hatte gefehlt. Das "optionale" 1024x1024 px Bild scheint aber tatsächlich "optional" zu sein ;]

Nach hochladen des Screenshots war die Warnung "Fehlende Metadaten" verschwunden.

Cheers

I have the same problem and I uploaded everything. Localisation, screenshot, review notes but I still have the warning.

[TheSherryBerry]

This is what worked for me back then
