∞ Writing Great App Store Release Notes
Not as many people read these since Apple made automatic updates a thing, but some people still do, is my answer. The thing is, it doesn’t matter whether four, 40 or 40,000 people read your release notes. The people that do are the people that judge you on your attention to detail, after all, they’re interested in the fine details of your point update.
I'm one of the people who read release notes. I do not have automatic update on. Instead, I will take a look at every app's release notes before manually tap the Update All button.
However, I do not quite agree with @helloimfreddie about the good and average release notes.
I was a fan of the Medium's style. They are fun and delightful to read. Then after many experiences of reading the release notes from the Updates tab, just like reading my twitter's timeline, I actually only remembered the apps that actually listed what the update is about with simple and precise bullet points. This style also saves me a lot of time, so I'm also more likely to read them carefully next time.
