Home / Journal / Store critic

The store is a critic.

Review is not a gate at the end. It is a reader with a checklist, a bad network, and no patience for your internal nouns.

Write for a stranger with power

App Store and Play reviewers do not know your standup vocabulary. If the login needs a code from a system they cannot see, say so in the notes. If an account is required, give them one that works. If a permission is scary, the screen before the prompt should already have earned it.

We treat those notes as product copy. They reveal every place the app assumed a friendly user. That is useful. Teams who discover it during rejection discover it in public.

Binary, metadata, support

Version numbers that support can say out loud. Screenshots that match the build. Privacy labels that match the SDK you actually linked. A crash in review is not “flaky CI”; it is the only demo that mattered. This is why mobile and DevOps sit in one studio at Razorbee.

Global listings add languages, age ratings, and export rules. Australia and the EU will not forgive a US-only assumption. Plan it on the world map before the first upload.
