# SignificantAppUpdateTopic

A topic for requesting permission for significant app updates.

```
struct SignificantAppUpdateTopic
```

## Overview

Use `SignificantAppUpdateTopic` when your app has a significant update that requires
parents or guardians to consent on behalf of their child. This topic helps you create
consistent asking experiences that may comply with regulations that require
notification or permission for app changes. You determine what constitutes a significant update
based on applicable regulations.

Use concise, understandable language that clearly explains what changed in your app.
Parents and guardians see this description when deciding whether to grant permission.

```swift
// Specific
let topic = SignificantAppUpdateTopic(
