> Apple also wanted more explicit terms of service and privacy policy links, so I cluttered up our welcome screen with more buttons.

This sort of starts from the perspective that a privacy policy is not important, and I get why people might think that, but I think it's a harmful perspective.

Having an explicit policy about how you handle user data is far more useful than ignoring the problem and pretending that you are good for privacy because you don't collect data for ads. Almost every app collects data in some way and it's important to lay those out and be explicit about them.

This is an attitude I see from a lot of small developers, and I think it's something devs need to get better at.

Most users have no interest in reading the privacy policy, and those who do will have no trouble finding it in some 'About' menu.

it should be there before you start using the app though

Right, It should be included in the app store page. Apple should have a specific place for it and it should be required.
