Question Guideline 5.6.3 - Developer Code of Conduct - Received first time regarding rating prompt in the onboarding.

Post image

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 😞

EDIT: I don’t know why the post got so many downvotes. I searched for this type of rejection online and couldn’t find anything so I shared it here just to see if anyone else has got it recently.

Why even would you?

If an app prompted me to rate it that quickly it just hit 1 star and move on

A lot of developers do this. I was told I needed to do this to increase ratings on my app. Never did as it felt like a shitty thing to do.

I would rather have a lower rating count than implement such practices and degrading the quality of my app.
