Using iRate in your app - asking for user reviews

DateMonday, May 16, 2011 at 7:43 | tagged , , , ,

This weekend I noticed many iOS apps are using the same kind of alert to ask the user for a review.

I started to look on GitHub and found out a very useful library called "iRate". Usage is very simple. Add the iRate.h/iRate.h to your project. Then, modify your application +initialize delegate method with the following lines of code:
These ivars have the following meaning: wait 5 days before asking a review from the user and wait for at least 10 application usage. If the user tap Remind me later, then wait 3 days before asking a review again. You can set a debug flag ON in order to bring the alert every time to do proof reading. Very nice.
