Mini-tutorials upon open are so annoying that my brain immediately enters "get out of the tutorial at any cost" fight-or-flight mode and I start scrambling for a hide, skip, or close button. If I don't find one I close the app and give it a 1-star rating that it has unskippable tutorials.

But would it hurt anyone to have them only optionally launched? A little clippy-like thing saying Hey there's a walkthrough here if you want it; not in your face if you don't.
