FAQ

Rating Projection FAQs

How are reviews needed calculated?
The calculator divides the target-minus-current rating gap times the current review count by the expected-minus-target rating gap, then rounds up to a whole number of reviews.
Why can a target be unreachable?
If you need to improve the average, incoming reviews must average above the target. Reviews equal to the target approach it without reaching it exactly.
What if my target is already reached?
The calculator shows zero additional reviews needed.
Does this predict my app store rating?
No. It assumes a simple weighted average. Platforms may round, filter, or weight ratings differently.
Is an API or account required?
No. The calculation runs locally in your browser.
