General

RuStore In-app Review SDK prompts the user to rate your app and leave feedback on RuStore without exiting the app.

Rating and feedback user scenarios may be run at any time throughout the user’s path in your app. The user can rate your app from 1 to 5 and leave feedback. Feedback is optional.

Implementation example

Check out the example app to learn how to properly integrate the Feedback SDK.

Prerequisites

For rating and feedback SDK to operate correctly, the following conditions need to be met:

  • Android 7.0 or later.
  • The current version of RuStore is installed on the user's device.
  • User is authorized in RuStore.
  • App mus be published in RuStore.

When to ask for feedback

Use the tips below to decide when to ask the user to rate and leave feedback: (See below

  • Start the process once the user has been using your app for long enough.

  • Avoid starting it too often as this will impair your app’s user experience and limit the use or SDK ratings.

  • Avoid using calls to action like “Rate App” button as the user could have already reached the process starting limit.

  • Your app should not ask the user any questions before the start or while the process is running, including their opinion (“Do you like the app?”) or predictive questions (“Would you give this app 5 stars?”).

Design recommendations

Use the tips below to decide how to integrate the process:

  • Display the process as is, without any intervention or modification of existing design, including size, opacity, shape and other properties.

  • Add nothing on top or on sides of the process.

  • The process should open on top of all layers. Don’t close the process after starting. The process will close by itself after an express action by the user.

Working with user ratings

Getting started with user ratings

The plugin must be initialised to display the feedback window.

RustoreReviewClient.init();

Launching app evaluation

Once initialised, the form can be queried and displayed.

try {
const isRequested = await RustoreReviewClient.requestReviewFlow();
if (isRequested) {
await RustoreReviewClient.launchReviewFlow();
}
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
}
