Link Directly to the "Write a Review" Page for an App in the App Store


Does anyone know how to link directly to the "Write a Review" page in the app store for iOS7 & iOS8?

Specifically, I want to go to the app review page and then automatically bring up the "Write a Review" screen (see below), making it easier for users of our app to write a review.

I've seen this posting and this posting, which provide details on linking to the "review" section.

My question is different – I want to also bring up the "Write a "Review" window as well.

Is this possible? If not, is there an alternative you might recommend?


Solution

  • This is possible, using the link -> itms-apps://itunes.apple.com/app/id\(appID)&mt=8 with a get a parameter in the end : ?action=write-review

    let appReviewURL = "itms-apps://itunes.apple.com/app/id\(appID)?action=write-review&mt=8"
    print(appReviewURL)
    UIApplication.shared.open(URL(string:appReviewURL)!,options: [:])
    

    This should launch the "Write a Review" page for the specified "appID".
