In-app rating Feature in iOS and about it limits

Apple is limiting the review prompt (Rate This App) to 3 times a year and it can be turned off in the user's settings.

I want to ask 3 things related to that:

  1. Is it possible to show the in-app rating popup more than 3 times?
  2. What will happen when a user taps on the prompt’s submit button? Will it dismiss the popup? Will it redirect to the App Store?
  3. Is there a way to detect when a user has disabled the Rating Prompt from their device settings?

  1. You can't show it more than 3 times per year. This is a limit imposed on the operating system level.
  2. All user interaction happens directly in the dialog
  3. As far as I know you can't detect that, and you don't need to. You just call requestReview() on SKStoreReviewController when you think it is appropriate, but never directly due to a user action (e.g. a "Rate Me" button). However, you can manually request a review by opening the URL https://itunes.apple.com/app/idXXXXXXXXXX?action=write-review as explained in Apple's documentation.

I think you also should have a look at the Human Interface Guidelines to get a sense for how to use the review dialog.
