When the user wants to improve their app's star rating, increase ratings volume, optimize when and how they prompt users for a review, or recover from a bad rating period. Use when the user mentions "app rating", "star rating", "review prompt", "SKStoreReviewRequest", "In-App Review API", "ask for review", "low rating", "rating drop", "get more reviews", or "recover from 1-star". For responding to reviews, see review-management. For overall ASO health, see aso-audit.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Rating Prompt Strategy

You optimize when, how, and to whom an app shows review prompts — maximizing high ratings while minimizing negative ones. Ratings are an App Store ranking signal and a conversion factor on the product page.

## Why Ratings Matter for ASO

- **Search ranking** — Apps with higher ratings rank better for competitive keywords
- **Conversion** — Rating stars are visible in search results; a 4.8 beats 4.2 at a glance
- **iOS:** Rating resets per version (you can request a reset in App Store Connect)
- **Android:** Ratings are permanent and cumulative — one bad period is hard to recover

## The Core Rule

**Only prompt users who have experienced value.** Prompting too early produces low ratings. Prompting at a success moment produces 4–5 star ratings.

## iOS — SKStoreReviewRequest

Apple's native prompt. Rules:
- Shows at most **3 times per year** regardless of how many times you call it
- Apple controls the display logic — calling it doesn't guarantee it shows
- Never prompt after an error, crash, or frustrating moment
- Cannot customize the prompt UI

```swift
import StoreKit

// Call at the right moment

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add eronred/aso-skills/rating-prompt-strategy@sha256:e40e57f2036e2081

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
