About a month ago,Apple was finally starting to offer its users the ability to rate their own applications. The firm has not really specified what motivated this change, but the grievances of various competition authorities against it may have had something to do with it. Indeed, several institutions accuse the company of favoring its own platforms to the detriment of the competition (which is indeed understandable in this case).
Today, perhaps to counter these allegations, Apple has decided to continue its momentum and offers to rate new apps to evaluate. The opportunity to see what Internet users think!

Safari
Opinions on the Safari browser are rather divided. So, while some praise the quality of the updates, others do not agree. The user Yougi02, for example, gives this app a rating of 1/5, which “can be great for users“but stay”a pain as a developer“. For him, Safari should be updated alone and no longer with the new versions of iOS. On the other hand, the same comment believes that the browser could support more APIs.
Safari's overall rating is not displayed in France: it is perhaps still a little too early to calculate it.
Messages
Soberly titled Messages, Apple's platform for SMS and iMessage is also entitled to its first notes. There aren't many in France yet, unfortunately. It is also very surprising to note that Apple displays an average rating of 5/5 while some comments are clearly below. It even says “1 note” while we can read five, as you can see in this screenshot taken this afternoon:

Photos
Apple's photo library has already been rated twice at the time of writing, for an overall score of 5/5. No comments posted yet.
Other apps to note
According to developer Kosta Eleftherious,who is not at his first attempt, Apple also suggests noting:
- Health(two ratings, with an overall score of 4/5)
- World clock– for Apple Watch (no rating yet)
- Watch(no rating at the moment either)
- Phone(five ratings, with an overall score of 4.8/5)
