Is there a way to check if user has rated your app?

ios

I have been extensively searching through Internet but I could not able to come across so far then I have decided to ask the following question in SOF.

My idea is to implement a selling and buying product in my application. There will be no charge from both sides(seller or buyer). However, I only want to receive user feedback to increase my app reputation in the AppStore.

I would like to know how to check whether or not that an app user rate or leave comment for my application in the App Store. I need to know because I want to give him more advertising opportunities within the app.

Sorry again, I wish to provide a sample code but I could not able to come anything to start with.

1) Either click Store > View My Account or click your profile on the bottom left of the App Store. 2) Select View Information on the top right and enter your password if prompted. 3) Scroll down to the Manage section and you'll see Ratings and Reviews with the number next to it.

What will happen to an app if it gets 1 rating?

“An app with 1 star rating will still be available for download even after it gets poor ratings. However, there will be a huge impact on future downloads of the apps as most of it is dependent on reviews,” Vivek Shah who develops applications told Business Insider India.

How do you ask for a rating on an app?

Android in-app rating requests Android does not have a native in-app request tool, but they do, however, have an option to create a customized request. The customized requests are generated in the app and can be prompted whenever the development team decides.

Are App Store reviews Anonymous?

Apple does not "reveal [your] email" when they publish reviews. They do publish your Apple ID username, but I believe this can be overridden if you review using iTunes on Mac/PC instead of doing so from your phone.

As far as I'm aware, there isn't a way to do this. Most apps just direct people to the app store and then assume they rated the app. You can have the user copy and past their review into your app and store it so you can double check that they actually did it. That will ensure more people don't try to cheat the system. Essentially, the more work you make it to unlock the feature, the less likely people are to cheat.

From Apple via @Paulw11's comment:

Developers who attempt to manipulate or cheat the user reviews or chart ranking in the App Store with fake or paid reviews, or any other inappropriate methods will be removed from the iOS Developer Program
