With Balcassa, we have found that we are getting far fewer reviews than with the Idiot Detector. I would like to believe that this is because people are not removing it from their phones ;-)<br /><br />Something I would like to see would be a way for developers to comment on reviews. I have seen a few good apps with very bad reviews simply because the reviewer did not understand what they were buying or because they thought a feature was &quot;missing&quot;.Gavinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16270460871883483985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5700302300790578476.post-65505558579243315352009-09-10T04:17:32.296+01:002009-09-10T04:17:32.296+01:00On the ratings side, you have one very big thing working against you - any time you delete an app, you automatically get an instant popup asking you to rate it.<br /><br />I imagine that most people who delete apps do so because they don&#39;t like them... so all those people who didn&#39;t like the app get an easy way to express that opinion. People who like your app and keep it will have to go back to the App Store (or iTunes), find your app, and enter a rating... how many people are going to go through that effort?Ricky Vuckovichttp://www.rickyvuckovic.comnoreply@blogger.com
