Explanation
The title names the main change: the store copy, README, review notes, and DESIGN now call TG Archive a reader of Telegram-Archive backups instead of an iOS client, which addresses App Review's concern. The title is specific and matches the changeset and PR objectives. It is 102 characters, which is longer than the preferred concise length, but the content is accurate and on-topic.

| 1. What to look at. The demo starts at app launch: on the first screen tap "Try the Demo" (below "Have a share link?"). It opens an invented archive built into the app, labelled "Demo" at the top of every screen. From there: browse the chat list, open "Weekend Hikers" to read a thread with photos, a poll and a voice-note transcript, tap a photo to open it full screen, open the Search tab and search for "trail", tap a result to jump to it in its chat, then tap "Exit Demo" (top of the screen, or Settings) to return to the first screen. | ||

| 2. Purpose and audience. TG Archive is the iOS client for Telegram-Archive (https://github.com/GeiserX/Telegram-Archive), an open-source server that people run themselves to keep a backup of their own chat history. The app lets them read that backup on their iPhone. It is a read-only viewer: it shows only the user's own exported archive from the server they run. It is not a Telegram client. It does not use the Telegram API, cannot send or receive messages, and has no contact with Telegram. | ||

Remove the remaining Telegram client wording.
The review notes still say It is not a Telegram client. This reintroduces the term that the PR is removing to avoid App Review classifying the app as a Telegram client. Describe the behavior directly without client, for example: “It only reads the archive from the user's server and cannot send or receive messages.”

| - The app is called **TG Archive** everywhere: display name, App Store name, About screen. "Telegram" is never part of the app name, subtitle, keywords, bundle id or icon. | ||
| - The icon is the Telegram-Archive mark, the same paper plane and database stack on the same dark plate as the server project's icon (`docs/images/icon.svg` there), so the app reads as that product's iOS edition. Never Telegram's own logo, and no bubble that copies Telegram's. Message bubbles use our own accent colour and shape. | ||
| - The word "Telegram" appears in exactly two places: the store description's last paragraph and the About screen, both with this text: "TG Archive is part of the open-source Telegram-Archive project and is independent of Telegram. It reads backups made by Telegram-Archive, a server you run yourself, which uses the Telegram API." The app is never called "unofficial": it is the official iOS client of the Telegram-Archive project. The server project's name, "Telegram-Archive", is used as the name of that project and nothing else. | ||

Update the stale disclosure in DESIGN.md and AboutView localization.
The disclosure in docs/DESIGN.md line 20 and both about.disclaimer strings still uses the longer wording. The store descriptions and the current section 1 note use the shorter disclosure ending with “the server you run uses the Telegram API.” Keep the disclosure consistent across docs/DESIGN.md, both store descriptions, and the localized About strings.

App Review rejected 0.2.0 under 4.3 and 4.2.6, treating TG Archive as a copy of a Telegram app. Our own store text invited it: the description and the review notes opened with "the iOS client for Telegram-Archive", and next to a name starting with TG, "client" reads as a Telegram client.
The opening line now says what the app is: the reader for the chat backup Telegram-Archive keeps. README, the review notes and DESIGN say the same, and StoreTextTests now fails if the store text calls the app a client again.
