I think it just means you passed some preliminary screen and now your app is being reviewed in more detail, but I would try not to read much into whether you got it/the timing either because we have no idea how they’re prioritizing their order of review
My interpretation: they lightly skim apps since they get so many each cycle, and they probably have 3 piles, R, More in depth review, A.
I believe those of us who got it didn’t automatically catch the reviewer’s eyes for an interview, but we have an app worth a second look without an auto R.
For what it’s worth, anything other than an R is a good thing. Good luck everyone!
