Featured Placement Changes Under iOS 27

Since iOS 27 shipped (Sep 14):

Editorial patterns:

• "New in iOS 27" collections — apps with compatible features get slots
• "Works with the new Siri" — early App Intents adopters featured
• Category refreshes — finance apps got a "Money Matters" refresh post-launch

The window: editorial placements refresh within 2–4 weeks of an OS launch. Apps that shipped day-one compatibility + updated creative assets are eligible; latecomers get the next cycle.

What gets you featured: compatible features (App Intents, Live Activities), fresh creative assets (the new header format), clean review stream (4.6+ with recent velocity). Stock Picks hit all three.
