The Golden State
Hello! I had been participating in a TestFlight (for the new Reeder app, which I enjoy more every day I have to say). After the TestFlight ended I wanted to download the app from the App Store. It shows the cloud/arrow icon next to it, but when I click on it it flickers once but does not start a download.

I have tried some of the usual things (restarting, thrashing the Reeder TestFlight app, it's support files, some(?) of App Store's cached files, signed out and back into the App Store, but nothing worked.

FWIW, I'm on the latest Tahoe beta which could (or not) have something to do with it.

Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
 
A quick update - doesn't work on the new Tahoe beta (if anything to do with it).

I tried downloading the app with a different user account and a different App Store account, but the download did not complete (I assume at the install stage), and after a restart I ended up in the same situation as above...
 
For what’s worth I run the latest developer beta on a M3/16 13” Air and I am on Testflight for a few of macOS programs. No problems with downloads/updates.

You're not alone with this problem and Reeder. It happened to me with both the old and new Reeder apps and Mela, which is also by the same developer. The new TestFlight build today for MacOS also does not download in TestFlight. Can't download anywhere. Emailed the developer and got no response.
