App Store accessibility labels before trust blind spot
Publish accessibility labels before the page starts screening people out, because the App Store will still show the section even when the team has not filled it in.
Why this can grow a startup
Accessibility is usually handled as product QA and left off the acquisition page until much later. Apple's Accessibility Nutrition Labels change that. The labels appear on the product page by device, and Apple notes that if a team does not provide the information, the section still appears and tells users support has not been indicated yet. That means silence is not neutral. It becomes a visible trust gap for buyers deciding whether the app is built for them or for someone else.
Company example
Apple says Accessibility Nutrition Labels appear on the product page and that missing device details still show a section saying support has not been indicated yet.

If a team omits accessibility support details for a device, Apple still shows the section and marks that support has not been indicated.
When to use it
Use this when App Store, Brand Trust, Accessibility is relevant to app store, accessibility, trust and you can run a bounded test with a medium budget.
When not to use it
Do not use it as a substitute for customer evidence, a clear owner, or a measurable stop condition. Local platform rules and market behavior still need checking.
