Ratings and Reviews SDK for Flutter (version 6.0.0)

General​

RuStore In-app Review SDK prompts the user to rate your app and leave feedback on RuStore without exiting the app.

Rating and feedback user scenarios may be run at any time throughout the user’s path in your app. The user can rate your app from 1 to 5 and leave feedback. Feedback is optional.

Implementation example​

Review the example app to learn how to correctly integrate the Reviews and Ratings SDK.

When to request an in-app rating and review​

Use the tips below to decide when to ask the user to rate and leave feedback: (See below

  • Start the process once the user has been using your app for long enough.

  • Avoid starting it too often as this will impair your app’s user experience and limit the use or SDK ratings.

  • Avoid using calls to action like “Rate App” button as the user could have already reached the process starting limit.

  • Your app should not ask the user any questions before the start or while the process is running, including their opinion (“Do you like the app?”) or predictive questions (“Would you give this app 5 stars?”).

Design recommendations​

Use the tips below to decide how to integrate the process:

  • Display the process as is, without any intervention or modification of existing design, including size, opacity, shape and other properties.

  • Add nothing on top or on sides of the process.

  • The process should open on top of all layers. Don’t close the process after starting. The process will close by itself after an express action by the user.

Connecting to the project​

Run the following command to connect the package to the project.

flutter pub add flutter_rustore_review

This command will add a line to pubspec.yaml.

pubspec.yaml
dependencies:
    flutter_rustore_review: ^6.0.0

Working with user ratings​

Getting started with user ratings​

The plugin must be initialised to display the feedback window.

RustoreReviewClient.initialize();

Triggering the in-app rating flow​

Once initialised, the form can be queried and displayed.

RustoreReviewClient.request().then((value) {
  RustoreReviewClient.review().then((value) {
    print("success review");
  }, onError: (err) {
    print("onError: ${err}");
  });
});
