Question by Doolwind · Oct 28, 2010 at 02:06 AM · apprate

App Rating Button - iPhone

I'd like to show a message asking the user whether they want to rate our iPhone application. Just like this:

http://gamesfromwithin.com/increase-your-app-ratings-on-the-app-store

The closest I've found is using a native plugin:

Is there any way of doing this from within Unity without using a native plugin (we only have the basic license at this stage)?.

As of Unity 3.0 Native plugins are available to all developers on mobile platforms so you should have no problems using the native plugin.

Thanks Peter, I just read that after posting. I am still interested to know if there is a way to do it without using a native plugin. I assume not, but wanted to ask :) Will leave question open a little longer and then accept.

Hi, I think you can try to use a plugin called UniRate in the Unity asset store. It can help you prompt the users automatically with a simple drag. And it works for both iOS and Android. You can find more detail in this forum post.

As far as I know, there is not a way without calling native method to pop up a system window, so maybe you have to use a plugin.

if you're doing something like checking once in a while, why not put the native code in appcontroller.mm that unity generates? right after the controller is allocated do your checks, if its time to ask, the alert will show up
