npx cap syncimport { CapgoInAppReview } from '@capgo/capacitor-in-app-review';
// Request a review at an appropriate moment in your app
await CapgoInAppReview.requestReview();Both Apple and Google have strict guidelines about when and how often the review dialog can be shown:
iOS:
- The system may or may not show the review dialog based on App Store policy
- You should not call
requestReview()in response to a button tap - The system automatically limits the display of the prompt to 3 times within a 365-day period
Android:
- Google Play enforces a quota on how often a user can be shown the review dialog
- The API might not show the dialog if the quota has been reached
- The dialog will not be shown in debug builds
Capacitor In-App Review Plugin interface for prompting users to submit app store ratings and reviews without leaving the app.
requestReview() => Promise<void>Request an in-app review from the user.
This method triggers the native in-app review dialog provided by the platform. On iOS, it uses SKStoreReviewController. On Android, it uses the Play In-App Review API.
Important Notes:
- The review dialog may not be displayed every time this method is called. Both Apple and Google have guidelines that limit how often the prompt can appear.
- There is no guarantee that the user will see the review prompt.
- The method resolves successfully even if the dialog was not shown.
- Do not call this in response to a user action like a button tap. Instead, call it at natural points in your app's user flow.
