Introduction

Appirater is a class that you can drop into any iPhone app (iOS 4.0 or later) that will help remind your users to review your app on the App Store. The code is released under the MIT/X11, so feel free to modify and share your changes with the world. To find out more, check out the [project homepage] homepage.

Getting Started

  1. Add the Appirater code into your project.
  2. Add the CFNetwork and SystemConfiguration frameworks to your project.
  3. Call [Appirater setAppId:@"yourAppId"] with the app id provided by Apple. A good place to do this is at the beginning of your app delegate's application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method.
  4. Call [Appirater appLaunched:YES] at the end of your app delegate's application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method.
  5. Call [Appirater appEnteredForeground:YES] in your app delegate's applicationWillEnterForeground: method.
  6. (OPTIONAL) Call [Appirater userDidSignificantEvent:YES] when the user does something 'significant' in the app.

Configuration

Appirater provides class methods to configure its behavior. See [Appirater.h] Appirater.h for more information.
