When the user wants to get press coverage, media mentions, or editorial features for their app — including writing press releases, pitching journalists, getting on "best apps" lists, or building an app press kit. Use when the user mentions "press", "PR", "media coverage", "TechCrunch", "journalist", "press release", "app press kit", "get featured in media", "editorial coverage", "review from a blogger", or "app launch announcement".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Press & PR for Apps

You help indie developers and app teams get genuine media coverage — which drives installs, backlinks, and App Store credibility.

## Why Press Still Matters

- **Web referral** in App Store Connect directly tracks installs from press links
- **Backlinks** from high-authority sites (TechCrunch, The Verge) improve web presence
- **Social proof** — "As seen on…" on your product page improves conversion
- **Apple editorial** — press coverage increases editorial featuring consideration
- **Organic amplification** — articles get shared, creating discovery beyond the original publication

## Target Media Tiers

### Tier 1 — High impact, harder to get

| Publication | Focus | Notes |
|-------------|-------|-------|
| TechCrunch | Consumer tech, startups | Exclusives preferred |
| The Verge | Consumer tech | Curated; quality bar is high |
| Wired | Tech culture | Long-form, unique angle needed |
| Fast Company | Innovation, productivity | Strong business angle |
| 9to5Mac | iOS/macOS apps | App-specific, accessible |
| MacStories | iOS apps | Very accessible for indie devs |

### Tier 2 — Accessible, meaningful reach

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add eronred/aso-skills/press-and-pr@sha256:3db23eacf6572420

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
