TestFlight send new update notification - testflight

I uploaded a new version of my app into TestFlight it’s the Version 0.2. My previous version was 0.121.
After the new version 0.2 was accepted, no one got a push notification to update the app.
Everyone has to click on the public link again or open TestFlight.
Is it possible to send a new notification to all users?

My solution: Edit the test information and you'll get immediately a push notification.

Firebase Push Notifications do not work in xcode project

I'm currently trying to add firebase push notifications to iOS unity project in xcode, but nothing seems to work. Everything else works perfectly, and there is no problems with push notifications in the same project on android. No push notifications in testlight or in the released version from AppStore. Also the permission for using notification do not show up after launching.
PS I am not a developer, just a QA-engineer being asked to manage all the problems with iOS)
added push notifications capability
added remote notification capability
uploaded app APNs to firebase account
enabled push notifications in provisioning profile
added user notification usage description to info.plist
Nothing seems to work. I saw post about adding "registerForRemoteNotifications" string in AppDelegate but I can't find it in our project.

xcode enable push notifications

Im trying for a whole day now to get firebase push notifications working.
In almost every tutorial there is a toggle button for push notifications in xcode, in my setup i can not find the toggle button. I can add push notification in the Singing & Capabilities view. And I can see the pus notifications heading, however there is no toggle button.
Im a member of a apple developer team account do I need to get special permissions?
When I view the app config (i can not edit the config) at https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/identifiers/list I see the push notifications is checked.
Im running xcode 11.2.1 on osx 10.15.1
Any pointers are appreciated.
When looking at the capabilities 6 it states: push notifications.

how to update my app informations in appStore connection?

I'm trying to send my to appStore but I've just run into an issue, I want this app to be available just on iPhones and not iPads but appStore Connection keep asking me iPad Screenshots before I send the app for revision, on XCode I've changed the deployment information...
but I couldn't find an update button to send this new information to appStore Connection, Should I restart the whole process again?
thank you in advance for your answers!
If your app if already live in the AppStore you cannot change this.
If you have already uploaded your app to AppStoreConnect but NOT submitted it, simply just change the bundle ID. Then make a new app in App Store Connect and copy over info.

App refused for notifying user when new version of app is available

I recently released a new version of my app which now contains some code which at run time, checks for a new version of the app. If a new version exists, an alert will appear asking the user if they want to download the new version now or later. This notification appears when user opens app app, and if they say no will not appear again, until app process is killed and then opened again. So the notification is not intrusive
However Apple rejected my app saying
"Your app includes an update button or alerts the user to update the app. To avoid user confusion, app version updates must utilize the iOS built-in update mechanism. "
There are frameworks online you can add to your app like this
https://github.com/ArtSabintsev/Siren
Which do this, and I believe clash of clans notify users when app update is available. So how come my app is being refused for this feature.
Is there another way I can notify users that a version of the app is available that will not cause the app to be refused.
Any info would be much appreciated

Re-submitting app after it's been accepted

I've submitted an app that got accepted in it's 1.0 state, but I haven't published it because we had to wait for the next version.
Now I have the 1.01 version that I would like to submit, with a build number of 5 (the previous one on the store was 3), which I did using the following :
Archive
Distrubution to the app store
Submit to the app store
Submit to the appstore Complete, with a big green V.
5 hours after I still don't see my build or version on my itunes connect page, it still shows the old page as it always did.
Did I do something wrong? Must I publish before updating? I really wish we wouldn't' have to. Have I lost a day of review queue?
Thanks for your help
EDIT: Here is what I had at the end of my Xcode archive routine :
Yet nothing shows on the itunesconnect side, several hours afterwards.
Here is my build section in the version tab, which shows the version I uploaded two months ago. :
Did you prepare a new version to send to apple review team? I mean in the itunes connect webpage.
EDIT: You have to reject your old binary that is "ready to publish" or if you want publish it ("ready for sale"). Then you have to re-upload your new binary, creating a new version tab. You can follow this steps to upload your new binary:
