Hi all

Saw something really cool and want to ask you if anybody has any idea how to do this. Don't remember the app though :BangHead:
This was an app that had a splash screen telling the user to give the app a rating on Market. If this was done, the splash screen would not apeare anymore.
Remember that the splash screen showed the 5 stars but cannot remember if these stars had any function, that would ofcourse be the best sulotion.

Wouldn't this be nice?

Anyone?

I think you can do like this

  1. Make one panel with dialog and button
  2. Put on panel for example 5 stars and button named "Rate It" and some text label "If you like my app please rate it on market"
  3. Make event on click on your button
  4. When user click your button this code will start the market with your app:

B4X: 
Dim market As Intent, uri As String
uri="market://details?id=COM.NAME.OF.MY.APP"
market.Initialize(market.ACTION_VIEW,uri)
StartActivity(market)

Replace COM.NAME.OF.MY.APP with your app id

This is about how far I have been with this.
But is there a way to detect if the user has rated it or not, that is the tricky part.
Only want to show this splash screen if the user has not yet rated it.

No, there is no way to find out if user rate your app on market or not.
And you can only rate app from market app

Technical it will be possible.
But anyway you should meet three conditions

you must login
You must have the app on your phone
And yet no previous rating done on this app

Google arranged it self that you can rate once
Same conditions as rate by pc on market and market on your phone

So why bother, go to market on you phone, there you can also rate
