    Hi folks, I'm searching to try and find out what is the best link to your app for the "Review Link" in BB1.3.5.
    I'm getting conflicting info from the web with folks saying that the old linking direct to the "review page" method that used to work prior to iOS version 7.1, no longer works and Apple have changed it to only direct to the app page. Whilst other info says, it's now changed back, ie you can direct link to the review page, which of course would be much, much better.

    Q: Can anyone shed some light on this please? If you have an app that's live from BB 1.3.5 and have successfully linked to the review page, I'd love to check the URL with you, thanks.

    Special review page URLs no longer work for quite some time now. I am not aware of it working again, but stranger things happen. The URL you have will work. But you may have to make it http (not https), I don't recall off hand if https caused an issue or not. Also, you can drop the question mark and everything after it.

    Thanks @Andy. I've cleaned up the URL and I dropped the 's', from https, but as soon as you click, Apple pop it back in there, so I guess I'll leave it out and let them decide :) Thanks for the tip.
