In a short introduction, you have 80 characters to convince visitors that your app is what they’re looking for, and more importantly, what value it provides to users. A brief introduction is displayed during interaction with users, with the exception of the Featured tab. However, keep in mind that the feature of the short splash screen is that the visible part can be up to 35 characters out of 80.
It is the most equivalent to the usual description on Google Play, the ranking factor and allows you to add 100 to 8000 characters, which is twice as much as in the App Store or Google Play. Since the entire description is indexed, we fill it with relevant keywords to increase the indexing of the application.
By analogy with Google Play and optimization with a full description, you can follow similar principles here and introduce users to all the features, functions and competitive advantages of your application.
