AppRating - iOS App Rating for Swift 5.0

AppRating is a simple yet powerful App Review Manager for iOS and OSX written in Swift. It is based on Armchair but mainly rewritten for Swift 5.0.

Android: https://github.com/grizzly/android-in-app-reviews/

What's new?

• SKStoreReviewController - Now supporting the brand new iOS 10.3 API SKStoreReviewController which makes it really easy to get a huge number of ratings for your app. It opens the rating directly in an alert:

Why AppRating?

The average end-user will only write a review if something is wrong with your App. This leads to an unfairly negative skew in the ratings, when the majority of satisfied customers don’t leave reviews and only the dissatisfied ones do. In order to counter-balance the negatives, AppRating prompts the user to write a review, but only after the developer knows they are satisfied. For example, you may only show the popup if the user has been using it for more than a week, and has done at least 5 significant events (the core functionality of your App). The rules are fully customizable for your App and easy to setup.

Requirements

• Xcode 10.0+ (get the beta version at Apple Developer)
• iOS 10.3+

Installation

CocoaPods

CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. You can install it with the following command:

$ gem install cocoapods

CocoaPods 0.39.0+ is required to build AppRating.

To integrate AppRating into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile:

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '10.3'
use_frameworks!

pod 'AppRating', '>= 0.0.1'

Then, run the following command:

$ pod install

Carthage

Carthage is a decentralized dependency manager that builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks.

You can install Carthage with Homebrew using the following command:

$ brew update
$ brew install carthage

To integrate AppRating into your Xcode project using Carthage, specify it in your Cartfile:

github "grizzly/AppRating"

Run carthage update to build the framework and drag the built AppRating.framework into your Xcode project.

Usage

Simple 1-line Setup

AppRating includes sensible defaults as well as reads data from your localized, or unlocalized info.plist to set itself up. While everything is configurable, the only required item to configure is your App Store ID. This call should be made as part of your App Delegate's initialize() function

AppRating.appID("12345678")

That's it to get started. Setting AppRating up with this line uses some sensible default criterion (detailed below) and will present a rating prompt whenever they are met.

What's Planned?
