Unity + UWP – How to open the Rate Now Screen

by Posted on

There is a trick here, you need a different conditional define for Mono Builds and another for IL2CPP builds!

Mono Builds

#if NETFX_CORE
            string productID =  Windows.ApplicationModel.Package.Current.Id.FamilyName;
            Application.OpenURL("ms-windows-store://pdp/?ProductId=" + productID);
#endif

IL2CPP Builds

#if ENABLE_WINMD_SUPPORT
            string productID =  Windows.ApplicationModel.Package.Current.Id.FamilyName;
            Application.OpenURL("ms-windows-store://pdp/?ProductId=" + productID);
endif

The real trick is to use the #ENABLE_WINMD_SUPPORT conditional define for IL2CPP builds or #NETFX_CORE for Mono Builds.
