pod "SwiftRater"

Usage

1.Setup SwiftRater in AppDelegate.swift. After setting up, call SwiftRater.appLaunched().

    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
        SwiftRater.daysUntilPrompt = 7
        SwiftRater.usesUntilPrompt = 10
        SwiftRater.significantUsesUntilPrompt = 3
        SwiftRater.daysBeforeReminding = 1
        SwiftRater.showLaterButton = true
        SwiftRater.debugMode = true
        SwiftRater.appLaunched()

        return true
    }

If you are using SwiftUI, create AppDelegate class that inherits UIApplicationDelegate and configure SwiftRater there. (Thanks @markgravity for the suggetion)

@main
struct YourApp: App {
    @UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor(AppDelegate.self) var appDelegate

    var body: some Scene {
        WindowGroup {
            ContentView()
        }
    }
}

class AppDelegate: NSObject, UIApplicationDelegate {
    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey : Any]? = nil) -> Bool {
        SwiftRater.daysUntilPrompt = 7
        SwiftRater.usesUntilPrompt = 10
        SwiftRater.significantUsesUntilPrompt = 3
        SwiftRater.daysBeforeReminding = 1
        SwiftRater.showLaterButton = true
        SwiftRater.debugMode = true
        SwiftRater.appLaunched()
        return true
    }
}

| Property | Description | | :------------- |:-------------| | daysUntilPrompt | Shows review request if daysUntilPrompt days passed since first app launch. | | usesUntilPrompt | Shows review request if users launch more than usesUntilPrompt times. | | significantUsesUntilPrompt | Shows review request if user does significant actions more than significantUsesUntilPrompt |

You can set properties you want to apply.

| Property | Description | | :------------- |:-------------| | debugMode | Shows review request every time. Default false, need to set false when you submit app to AppStore. | | conditionsMetMode | Possible values: .any, .all (default)<br /> Setting this to .any allows the prompt to be shown when any one or more of your criteria have been met. | | showLaterButton | Show Later button in review request dialog, valid for iOS10.2 or before devices.| | daysBeforeReminding | Days until reminder popup if the user chooses rate later, valid for iOS10.2 or before devices. |

2.Call SwiftRater.check() in viewDidAppear of ViewController where you want to show review request dialog. If conditions are met, SwiftRater will show review request popup.

    override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
        super.viewDidAppear(animated)
        SwiftRater.check()
    }

3(Optional).For significantUsesUntilPrompt, you need to add SwiftRater.incrementSignificantUsageCount in siginificant action for your app.

func postComment() {
    // do something ..

	SwiftRater.incrementSignificantUsageCount()
}

4(Optional).Call SwiftRater.rateApp(host:) to let your users to review your app on the App Store/in your app directly.

func rateButtonDidClick(sender: UIButton) {
    // do something ..

	SwiftRater.rateApp(host: self)
}

Example

This example states that the rating request is only shown when the app has been launched 5 times and after 7 days, remind 5 days after if later selected.

SwiftRater.daysUntilPrompt = 7
SwiftRater.usesUntilPrompt = 5
SwiftRater.daysBeforeReminding = 5
SwiftRater.appLaunched()

If you wanted to show the request after 5 days only and remind 7 days after if later selected, you can set the following:

SwiftRater.daysUntilPrompt = 5
SwiftRater.daysBeforeReminding = 7
SwiftRater.appLaunched()

If you wanted to show the request after a user performs 10 significant actions before 5 days or 5 uses have passed:

SwiftRater.conditionsMetMode = .any
SwiftRater.daysUntilPrompt = 5
SwiftRater.usesUntilPrompt = 5
SwiftRater.significantUsesUntilPrompt = 10

Customize text

You can customize text in review request dialog for iOS10.2 or before devices. Set text in following properties.

  • SwiftRater.alertTitle
  • SwiftRater.alertMessage
  • SwiftRater.alertCancelTitle
  • SwiftRater.alertRateTitle
  • SwiftRater.alertRateLaterTitle
  • SwiftRater.appName

Country code

If your app is only avaiable for some coutnries, please add country code at Setup phase.

    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
        SwiftRater.daysUntilPrompt = 7
        SwiftRater.usesUntilPrompt = 10

        SwiftRater.countryCode = "fr"

        SwiftRater.debugMode = true
        SwiftRater.appLaunched()
        return true
    }

App ID

Optional, you can set App ID explicitly. If not, SwiftRater will get App ID from appstore by bundle ID.

    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
        SwiftRater.daysUntilPrompt = 7
        SwiftRater.usesUntilPrompt = 10

        SwiftRater.appID = "1104775712"

        SwiftRater.debugMode = true
        SwiftRater.appLaunched()
        return true
    }
