Does anyone have a suggestion for my issue? Any response would be appreciated.

Try these from top to the bottom:-

  1. You might have logged into multiple Google accounts under a user(owner) on your mobile. In this case, you can either log out from other google accounts except for the one which is on the email list of testers. Or, create a separate mobile-user on your phone and log into a google account which is on the tester's list in google console.

  1. You might have installed the same app inside another mobile-user on the phone. Goto Settings > Apps & notifications > Your App enter image description here

  1. Make sure, Internal app sharing option is on on. Goto App Store > Settings > Tab 7 times on "Play Store Version" Then you will see the following option. enter image description here

  1. Sometimes, cache needs to be cleared out. Goto Settings > Apps & notifications > Google Play Store > Storage & Cache > Clear Storage/Cache

TL;DR;

  • Change your Google Play account temporarily to other.

Long version

I tried all of the answers but with no luck. But I got the hint from them and tried to change my account. In my case, I have 4 accounts registered at Google Play, and two of them are registered as tester accounts. Here's the weird behavior, I changed to a non-tester account and it works but it doesn't when logged in to the tester account.

I have not tried this personally, but I think turning on developer options on both devices might help. I know this usually is only needed for USB debugging, but it might be worthwhile to try.
