1. In-App Prompting Strategy

Prompt users inside the app (at the right time) to leave a rating or review.

✔️ Best after a successful action:

• Completing a task

   

• Finishing an order

   

• Leveling up in a game

   

• Booking confirmation

   

Use native prompts like:

• Google Play In-App Review API

   

• Apple StoreKit Review Controller

   

2. Time-Triggered Strategy

Ask for reviews after a user has used the app a certain number of times or for a set period (e.g., 3 sessions or after 5 days).

3. Event-Based Triggering

Trigger review requests only after high-intent actions like:

• Subscription completed
  
  
• Referral shared
  
  
• 2nd purchase made
  
  

This ensures only engaged users are asked.

4. Incentivized Feedback (Indirect)

• Reward users with coupons, points, or thank-you notes for giving feedback (not for giving 5★).

• Play Store and App Store don’t allow review-for-reward, so word it ethically:

• “We’d love your honest feedback to keep improving!”

5. Post-Support Requests

• After resolving a user issue or help ticket, ask the user if they’re satisfied. If yes — prompt for a review.

• This converts neutral or negative users into promoters.

 6. Email or WhatsApp Review Nurturing

• Follow up with users via email or WhatsApp a few days after installation or use:

• “Loved using the app? We’d appreciate your quick feedback on the store.”

• Include direct links to your app store review section.
