Notarization stuck for days

It's been over 24h and it's still in progress. Is there a timeout for a failed notarization? or do we just wait for days.. weeks.. moths?

You can expect that most uploads will be notarised quickly. Occasionally, some uploads are held for in-depth analysis and may take longer to complete. As you notarise your apps, the system will learn how to recognise them, and you should see fewer delays.

The above-mentioned “in-depth analysis” is particularly common for folks in your situation )-:

Yeah, sorry that didn’t go through. There was a glitch in the matrix that generated a bunch of false positives in the sensitive language checker. That’s now been resolved.

Normally I’d recommend that you go ahead and create your new thread now, but in this case I’m gonna give you the same advice I gave Summitware: Wait a few days and see if this clears itself.

First post about my first app from a first time dev (so I'm probably wrong), but I think I'm having the same issue...?

After spending another 3 hours investigating, I just tried to post about this separately with some more context...
