Bad Release Notes
Bug fixes and performance improvements
Dedicated to shaming apps for their bad release notes.
Translation:
“The goal is to use this site as a reference when Apple deny your App update because of the release notes being not descriptive enough”
Previously:
- Xcode 10.2 Beta Release Notes
- Mojave Software Update Issues
- Rejected for Mentioning a Pre-release macOS Version
- How Omni Does Release Notes
- Self-Absorbed Release Notes
Update (2019-03-22): Jeff Johnson:
* We had to ship an update to change the Description field in App Store Connect.
Update (2019-04-10): Tanner Bennett:
Why are App Store change logs even mandatory if companies can put whatever the hell they want in them? Just make them optional so we can be spared the frustration of wasting our time reading these void ramblings.

A majority (well over half; probably more) of the apps I have on my iPhone provide vacant and insubstantial release notes. Some of them (Transit App, I'm looking at you) take a different tack and instead try to run a self-indulgent Vaudeville comedy act with useful information occasionally hidden therein.
I would so much love it if Apple would start enforcing meaningful release notes (right after they fix bug reporting and start fixing their own bugs).
