• Android: Play In-App Review API (no hard limits)

• Native dialogs: Cannot be customized, platform-controlled

Best Practices

• Ask at a “good moment” (success screen), not after errors or friction.

• Always provide a manual option in Settings/About.

• Expect OS throttling (especially iOS); a request does not guarantee a dialog.
