iTunes Connect app submission - What notes should I give to the reviewer?

Question

I'm submitting my first iOS app through iTunes Connect. What should I add under App Review Information ->Notes for the app reviewer? Is it recommended to add some kind of tutorial/walkthrough to let the reviewer know what to do?

Answer 1

When deploying our applications, we usually leave this field blank. You should definitely avoid entering tutorials and walkthroughs in the review notes.

The application is getting approved for App Store. The question you have to ask yourself is: "If someone working for Apple, clearly with technical expertise, needs a specific tutorial, how can someone without any knowledge of development use my application?"

Those review notes are meant only for Apple Review Team, as previously mentioned, you should only add notes that are relevant for them, if some special registration is required for sandboxing the user (or you can provide login credentials in separate fields).

Just make sure you are conforming to Apple's App Store rules and leave the field blank, unless it is absolutely necessary to tell something to reviewer. Do not use it to tell them, something is unfinished or beta, or such.
