Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 10 screenshots above are Home of Outdoors's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.

The accent colour we picked up, #84E4C4, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look.
