You might not be an editor but you sure know how to edit 🛠️

Any changes you’ve made to an already approved release are automatically sent to update moderation for review. Your release is still approved, but your updates will need to be reviewed before we can send the changes to your selected platforms.

Please note! If you edit your release within 24hrs of the approval date, this could temporarily halt the distribution process as further moderation is required.

If you’re waiting for your sales start date, this could be compromised upon making any changes. So if you do wish to make changes, it’s easier to do this when your release is already live on stores.

The moderation of updates is taking a bit longer than usual due to high demand. But don’t worry, we’re doing our best to bring the delays down ASAP to ensure you’re not waiting too long! Thank you for your patience.

Once your updates have been approved, it should take around 7 – 14 days for the changes to reflect on all selected stores.
