This is probably a silly question, but I just want to make sure.

The screenshot submission states:

"Upload three screenshots of your app playground that best represent the user experience as .png or .jpg files. Do not upload handwritten notes, sketches, or outlines."

For an Apple Pencil based app, can I sketch in the canvas to show the abilities of the app in the screenshots? I assume yes and that this only refers to submitting mock-ups of apps, but I wanted to be super sure I won't be going against the rules.

Thanks for the post, looks like there is documentation about app store screenshots.

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/app-screenshots

Reading that looks like for an Apple Pencil–based app, sketching directly on the canvas within your app playground to demonstrate its capabilities is absolutely allowed and aligns with the submission guidelines or at least does not go against it.

Always good to check all rules and regulations as I think the ban on handwritten notes, sketches, or outlines refers to using mockups or design concepts created outside your app (e.g., hand-drawn mockups scanned or imported into your submission).

Hope this helps. When you submit for sure Review team will let you know for sure. But I think the documentation is clear.
