TestFlight iOS App Crashes on Distribution Build Created with Adobe Animate + AIR SDK

After several successful development builds of my iOS app (built with Adobe Animate 24.0 Build 305 + AIR SDK 51.2.2.4), I moved to the distribution stage. The build was rejected by App Review due to crashing.

To investigate, I uploaded the app to TestFlight and tested it myself. It immediately crashes on launch. To rule out my project code, I created a minimal build containing only one image (no code), but that also crashes in TestFlight.

Development builds run fine on my device when using a development provisioning profile — the issue only occurs with TestFlight / distribution builds.

Is there a way to identify the crash reason from Apple’s side? Or does iOS no longer support Animate / AIR SDK builds in distribution?

I have crash logs (.ips) available and can share them if needed. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
