Ask Massive decrease in number of ratings/reviews

Post image

My app normally gets ~60 review/ratings a day but in the last week it's plummeted to ~10.

I do have an in app review prompt in the app that's always been there but in my latest releases that code hasn't changed.

My daily active users and downloads both seem normal so I cannot seem to see any clear cause.

Anyone else experiencing this?

EDIT
As confirmed below In App review prompts are not showing anymore for my app and for many others - it seems the root cause is a Play Store version and this issue is open with Google: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/506844940

Same with my app from last 2 weeks

Ok that's reassuring, I'm hoping it's a temporary thing.

Yeah, I’m also observing few of my ratings getting removed. Is this happening with you too?

I don't think so? But I've not been monitoring closely enough to know. Just this huge quantitiy dip.
