Android in-app review best practices?

Unity Engine

I use the Play In-App Review API to prompt for reviews in my game.
Currently I try to prompt on every 3 app launches directly after startup.
(It does not prompt if already reviewed and Google Play enforces a time-bound quota)

Do you think it would be better on every 5 app launches?
What is your experience?

You need to utilize the quota wisely.
Being said that, it’s not ideal to have it at start as it may not be the right place.
Think as a player when you usually like to rate?

  1. Once you win a bonus and if prompt is shown - Yes
  2. Once you beat a boss and if prompt is shown - Yes
  3. Once you keep playing and progressed to higher levels and if a prompt is shown - Yes
  4. Once user opens the game and prompt is shown - No

So find a place where you see a value and most likely the user may rate.

In short, try prompting at the “end of” positive and exciting moments during the course of the gameplay.
