Example

Illustrative example. Fictional product (Clipnest, a Mac clipboard app) and made-up numbers.

App Review rejected Clipnest twice in one week.

Symptom: "app requests accessibility without reason"
Cause: I asked on first launch, before any feature needed it
Fix: ask only when the user turns on paste shortcuts

Ask for permissions at the moment they make sense.
