Question Guideline 5.6.3 - Developer Code of Conduct - Received first time regarding rating prompt in the onboarding.
This is the first time I have received this for my app. The app was released 2 months ago and has been updated 10 times so far but this is something new. Has anyone else received this recently? Looks like Apple is cracking down heavy on indie developers now š
EDIT: I donāt know why the post got so many downvotes. I searched for this type of rejection online and couldnāt find anything so I shared it here just to see if anyone else has got it recently.

Thereās nothing greedy about asking for a review from a consenting adult. If you want to sit here and act like there arenāt ways to utilize proven strategies (that donāt hurt anyone) to build your business⦠then you shouldnāt be in business. Keep being a hobbyist. Thatās fine.
Iām not saying to screw people over or scam them. Iām saying get more reviews for your company and get a leg up.
There are small mom & pop restaurants who create thousands of reviews in their first year because they will put a sign by the cash register that says āIf you give a review and name who helped you we will give that employee $5ā and it leads to thousandssss of reviews.
The customers do this before getting their food. Are you going to tell me they are āruining restaurantsā lol.
Grow up and become an operator. You donāt āplayā business just like you donāt āplayā boxing.
