I've developing ios apps for about 2 years, my projects has more apps section to cross-promo my apps, I used following url pattern to redirect to them

string link = "itms-apps://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewContentsUserReviews?type=Purple+Software&id=" + id;

Recently I've tested this link and fount "Cannot Connect to App Store"

  1. Why its stop working?
  2. Where I find related info where Apple decided to change syntaxes and stop supporting old one
  3. As a solution I found that this link is working now, so I id value form server, now I am planning to use regex to remove old part and replace it with working one

P.S. Why Apple doing it

Thanks in advance

  • How would anyone here know why Apple does anything? – Paulw11 Apr 09 '18 at 09:03
  • @Paulw11I wrote that because its very big pain, I can't get why someone decide to not support old style of links. Is it hard to support backward compatibility? I don't think so – kaplya Apr 09 '18 at 09:08
  • You should really use `SKStoreProductViewController` anyway. It has been available since iOS 6 and you wouldn't have any issues with urls plus it gives a better user experience – Paulw11 Apr 09 '18 at 09:46
