Everyone should appreciate apps that put time and effort into explaining their software updates
Apple iPhone School
An aggressive red badge on the App Store icon would show you the number of apps that needed updating.
There was no automatic downloading for software updates. It was pretty annoying.
These days, since iOS app updates download automatically, there's rarely a reason to visit the "Updates" tab in the App Store - and most app developers seem to be aware of this.
For many apps, an update will simply include a boilerplate explanation for any software update along the lines of "we update the app regularly to make it faster and more reliable."
Usually, developers don't bother detailing new features, or which bugs were fixed, since so few people ever look there.
Still, many app makers still make an extra effort to explain all their software updates - and it's worth noting those that do this, if only to highlight developers that are transparent with their users.
