Hello everyone,
I am currently developing an app for my Swift Student Challenge submission that focuses on human motion analysis using the Vision framework.
To effectively demonstrate the app's technical capabilities during the review process, I need to include a sample video showing a person performing specific movements. However, I want to ensure that my submission strictly adheres to all intellectual property guidelines.
Instead of using existing copyrighted videos or public social media clips, I am considering using Generative AI to create an original, royalty-free sample video. This video would feature a character performing movements designed specifically to test my app's pose estimation and feedback logic.
I have a few questions regarding this approach:
Is it acceptable to use AI-generated sample assets (like video clips) to demonstrate technical features when it's difficult to record high-quality personal footage due to environmental constraints?
If I clearly disclose the tools used and the reason for using AI-generated content in my written response, would this be considered a professional approach to asset management?
Are there any specific guidelines I should follow to ensure that the use of AI-generated samples doesn't overshadow the original coding and design work of the project?
My goal is to showcase a polished and technically sound implementation using Xcode 26 while respecting all copyright requirements.
Thank you for your time and advice!

Hi everyone,
I am currently developing an app for my Swift Student Challenge submission. One of the key features of my app is visualizing user progress over time using SwiftData and Swift Charts.
I have a concern regarding the first-time experience for the reviewer. Since the app relies on accumulated data to display meaningful trends, the dashboard/charts will appear empty on the very first launch, which might not fully showcase the visualization logic I’ve implemented.
To ensure the reviewer can immediately grasp the app's potential within their limited review window, I am considering generating pre-populated sample data (mock data) only on the initial launch.
Does Apple generally recommend including sample data in a challenge submission to better demonstrate UI/UX and data visualization capabilities?
Or is it strictly preferred to present a "fresh" empty state, as a real first-time user would see it?
I want to make sure I am following the best practices for the challenge while highlighting my technical implementation of the SwiftData and Charts frameworks.
Thank you in advance for your advice!
