The Announcement is maintained by Marketplace Staff, and it appears on a white box at the top of all reviewer pages. It normally has important messages, so make sure you read it whenever it's around. It can indicate where reviewers should direct their focus, recent policy changes, or important notices about specific reviews pending in the queue.

The reviewer homepage has a handy summary view of the queues, giving a clear visual representation on how we stand with reviews. Hovering over the segments indicate the amount and percentages of reviews on each category. This should give you a good idea where to focus if the Announcement isn't explicit about it.

The review queues are centerpiece of the reviewer tools. They can be accessed from the queues menu. There are 4 normal queues (plus 2 'virtual' queues and 1 staff-only queue):
 
* Apps: All new app submissions, plus resubmissions for rejections.
* Re-reviews: apps that we have detected have had potentially significant changes made to them.
* Updates: new versions for existing approved packaged apps.
*(Escalations: staff-only queue.  All apps that have been escalated for further attention by app reviewers)
* Moderated reviews: user comments flagged for moderation.
* Reviewing: This contains easy install buttons for all the review pages you have open on any device.  So you can open a review page on Desktop and easily install the app on a mobile device.
