What problem does it solve?
App Store ratings behave in ways most developers learn the hard way: ratings are isolated per storefront, resets destroy rating counts permanently, and unphased releases can turn one bad build into a 1-star flood. This Skill provides the strategy layer for protecting and growing an app's rating.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Per-Storefront Rules: Explains why ratings never transfer between countries and how to plan prompting and review seeding when entering new markets.
- Reset and Release Guidance: Details why the ratings summary reset is almost always a mistake, and how phased release plus manual release limit damage from bad builds.
- Prompt-and-Reply Loop: Covers when to trigger requestReview, how replies convert updated 1-star reviews into higher scores, and how to audit ratings posture per storefront.
- Use Case: You launch in Japan and see no rating despite 2,000 US ratings. Use this Skill to build a localized prompting and reply plan for that storefront instead of assuming social proof carried over.
Quick Start
Ask the assistant to audit my app's ratings posture per storefront and flag any reset considerations or unphased releases.
