Apple tells app developers to disclose or remove screen recording code

I have published several apps on the App Store and none of them make use of any analytics or screen recording or any telemetry, really. So your statement "every app" is categorically wrong as far as I can understand it.

What kind of metrics can you get from Apple. Clearly number of downloads, but how about things like Daily Active Users?

And if your app has any kind of online component, there's probably an HTTP request hitting your server whenever the user launches the app. So even without explicit telemetry in the app, you can easily get decent data from your web server's logs.

Quite a bit, actually: daily active users, retention rates by day, sessions are among the things you can view.
