There isn't a specific API mentioned in the WWDC 2024 sessions for displaying update notes or "what's new" information directly within an app. However, the session titled "What’s new in App Store Connect" discusses features related to App Store Connect, such as featuring nominations and promoting app updates, which can indirectly help in communicating updates to users through the App Store.
For more detailed information on how to manage app updates and communicate changes, you might want to explore the App Store Connect features that allow you to submit plans for your app's upcoming content and enhancements to the editorial team for potential featuring on the App Store. This can help in promoting new features and updates to a broader audience.
If you are interested in more technical aspects, such as in-app purchase updates, the session "What’s new in StoreKit and In-App Purchase" might be relevant, especially if your updates involve in-app purchases or subscriptions.
For further exploration, you can check out the session What’s new in App Store Connect (00:46) for more on how to get your app discovered and promoted.
