When you rate apps or write reviews on Google Play Store for apps you’ve used, you help other users (who are about to download the app) understand the app; its use case, challenges, etc, before they decide to download it for themselves. Also, when you review and rate apps, it helps Google understand the type of apps you like, and then they’d go ahead and provides you with a more personalized experience in the store.
Finally, rating and reviewing apps help developers behind the app identify issues, bugs, and any challenges that users experience while using their app. In this article, we will show you how to rate and review apps on the Google Play Store.
