That structure follows Apple’s recommendation of a concise introductory paragraph followed by a short presentation of the app’s major features. I intentionally left subscription prices out because Apple recommends avoiding specific prices in the description; regional pricing can differ and Apple already displays pricing separately. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
