Bible BFF · User-contributed screenshot · resized, content unchanged
“Rate the app” before the app has been used
During onboarding, before any content, a screen over a painted landscape reads “Rate the app” with five stars, two avatars and a testimonial: “We love Bible BFF! It’s like a religious friend who can explain anything about the Bible” (-Emma & Rose), with a Continue button.

Design takeaway
Asking for a rating before the first use asks people to vouch for something they have not tried. Apple’s guidance is to let people experience an app before prompting for ratings.
