URL for sending a user to the app review page on device's app store

Question

What\'s the URL to launch in order to bring the iTunes App Store to the front, and open it to show the Reviews page of an app? I want to send my users to the \"Write a Revie

Answer 1

For Requesting for rate and review to user after iOS 10.3+

The SKStoreReviewController allows users to rate an app directly from within the app through a dialog box. The only downsite is that you can only request StoreKit to display the dialog, but can't be sure if it will.

import StoreKit

func requestToRate() {

     SKStoreReviewController.requestReview()

}

I tried a bunch of different links, this is only one working for me on iPhone AND iPad consistently:

http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewContentsUserReviews?pageNumber=0&sortOrdering=1&type=Purple+Software&mt=8&id=YOUR_APP

Answer 3

Am using Appirater for Rating my App

These links in AppiRater

// for ios6 or earlier

NSString *templateReviewURL = @"itms-apps://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewContentsUserReviews?type=Purple+Software&id=APP_ID";

// for ios7

NSString *templateReviewURLiOS7 = @"itms-apps://itunes.apple.com/app/idAPP_ID";

These links works fine .

But takes me to "Details" page of the app .

But it should go to "Ratings and Reviews" page..

suggest me any idea

Thanks

iTunes has a link maker you can use to get the URL. Tested on my app. It works.

Answer 5

Update: iOS 4.2 seems to have fixed this and links now open the App Store app directly rather than the review page.

This article Dissecting iTunes links explains everything.

Heading straight to a review form

It’s also possible to send someone straight to the review form for an app.

https://userpub.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZUserPublishing.woa/wa/addUserReview?id=337064413&type=Purple+Software

Simply replace the ID with your app’s ID to create a URL for your app.

On a desktop or laptop, this will take you directly to the review form in iTunes for the app or item. On an iPhone or iPod touch, this will open MobileSafari, then open iTunes or the App Store app on the reviews page, leaving the user only one tap away from writing a review.

To find out an item’s ID, right (Mac & PC) or control-click (Mac) on a link to the item in iTunes and select Copy Link. The result will look something like this.

http://itunes.apple.com/au/album/dig-your-own-hole/id19605549

http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/consume-mobile-isp-packages/id337064413?mt=8

The ID is the number in the URL after “id’.

It might be worth noting that this URL was created using iTunes 8. I don't think there’s a way to create review links in iTunes 9, so maybe this URL is being phased out. Use with caution.

Update: @mareMtl has provided an alternative review link for apps. Please note that it only works on iPhone OS devices.

itms-apps://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewContentsUserReviews?type=Purple+Software&id=337064413

Check out Appirater - http://arashpayan.com/blog/index.php/2009/09/07/presenting-appirater/

Every time the user launches your app, Appirater will see if they’ve used the app for 30 days and launched it at least 15 times. If they have, they’ll be asked to rate the app, and then be taken to your app’s review page in the App Store.
