| Unsupported claim blockers | 5/5 | 5/5 | 5/5 | 5/5 | Block unsupported growth, revenue, ranking, ratings, reviews, install-volume, partner, cross-browser, and automation claims. |
Selection rules
How to choose the winning path
Rule 1
Publish listing updates
When search fit, screenshots, permission proof, privacy routes, localization, and manual posting all align.
Rule 2
Rewrite keyword-only copy
When metadata is searchable but vague about workflow, supported sites, permissions, or final posting.
Rule 3
Localize only after boundaries pass
When each locale preserves availability, permission, privacy, and manual-posting limits.
Rule 4
Block unsupported proof
When copy implies unsupported growth, rankings, ratings, reviews, installs, partner status, revenue, or cross-browser live status.
Risk checks
What can make the matrix lie?
ASO overclaim
Store optimization can create performance or ranking promises.
Keep ASO as claim discipline, not outcome proof.
Screenshot ambiguity
Visuals can imply hidden automation if captions are unclear.
Caption selected drafts, editing, and manual posting.
Locale drift
Translated copy can soften safe boundaries.
Review each locale against the English claim blocker list.
