‘requestReview()’ was deprecated in iOS 14.0

iOS 16+

There is now a new RequestReviewAction that is available as an environment value:

private struct ContentView: View {
    @Environment(\.requestReview) private var requestReview

    var body: some View {
        Button("Review") {
            DispatchQueue.main.async {
                requestReview()
            }
        }
    }
}

iOS 14+

Quick solution

if let scene = UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes.first(where: { $0.activationState == .foregroundActive }) as? UIWindowScene {
    DispatchQueue.main.async {
        SKStoreReviewController.requestReview(in: scene)
    }
}

Note: according to some comments it’s more reliable with DispatchQueue.main.async

Convenient solution

Here’s a true one-liner:

SKStoreReviewController.requestReviewInCurrentScene()

but first you need to create the following extension in SKStoreReviewController:

extension SKStoreReviewController {
    public static func requestReviewInCurrentScene() {
        if let scene = UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes.first(where: { $0.activationState == .foregroundActive }) as? UIWindowScene {
            DispatchQueue.main.async {
                requestReview(in: scene)
            }
        }
    }
}

_{Here is a GitHub repository with different Swift extensions including requestReviewInCurrentScene().}

Explanation

The requestReview function was deprecated in iOS 14:

@available(iOS, introduced: 10.3, deprecated: 14.0)
open class func requestReview()

You need to use the requestReview(in:) function instead:

@available(iOS 14.0, *)
open class func requestReview(in windowScene: UIWindowScene)

Possible solutions

• Custom extension

You can create the following extension:

extension UIApplication {
    var currentScene: UIWindowScene? {
        connectedScenes
            .first { $0.activationState == .foregroundActive } as? UIWindowScene
    }
}

and use it like this:

if let scene = UIApplication.shared.currentScene {
    SKStoreReviewController.requestReview(in: scene)
}

• Universal one-liner:

if let scene = UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes.first(where: { $0.activationState == .foregroundActive }) as? UIWindowScene {
    SKStoreReviewController.requestReview(in: scene)
}

• single scene solution (for iOS)

if let scene = UIApplication.shared.connectedScenes.first as? UIWindowScene {
    SKStoreReviewController.requestReview(in: scene)
}
