App released on the App Store – “Not available in your country or region”?

Hi everyone,

I released my first app on the App Store today. In App Store Connect, the status already says that the app is published.

However, when I click on “View on App Store”, I get a message saying that the app is not available in my country or region.

Now I’m wondering: Is this normal right after release and does Apple simply need some time until the app becomes visible in all selected regions? Or did I probably configure something incorrectly?

Germany is enabled in the availability settings and I also didn’t schedule a future release date.

Has anyone experienced this before? How long did it take for your app to actually appear in the App Store?

Thanks 🙂
