# Give reviewers a working demo account

For AI agents: the [site map](https://agentwranglers.se/llms.txt) lists everything here, and this page sits under [Store review and listing](https://agentwranglers.se/playbook/mobile-apps/store-review-and-listing.md).

- ID: MOB-1
- Level: Recommended
- Chapter: [Store review and listing](https://agentwranglers.se/playbook/mobile-apps/store-review-and-listing)
- Rule: Every submission behind a sign-in carries a demo account, or a full demo mode, in the review notes. The backend it talks to is live during review.
- How: Create one account per store, such as `review@example.com`, with sample data that reaches every paid and gated screen. Keep it out of the second factor, or give reviewers a fixed code that works only for that account. Store the password in your secrets store, as [keep secrets in a secrets store](https://agentwranglers.se/playbook/engineering/running-in-production/secrets-store) says, and paste it into the review form at submit time. Exclude the account from metrics and from [delete old data automatically](https://agentwranglers.se/playbook/data/personal-data/retention-jobs), so a cleanup job never removes it during review.
- Check: A script signs in with the review account against production before each submission and opens three gated screens. It fails the release when sign-in fails.
