Apps Link To Comments Page in Android Market

[The_app_main]

What is the exact link to the page that lets users post comments about an app? I want to have a pop up in my app that allows the user to leave a comment but I can't seem to figure out the exact URL to the comments page. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

You can't post comments via web page, the user has to post it from the phone

private static String ME = "market://details?id=your.package.name";
startActivity(new Intent( "android.intent.action.VIEW", Uri.parse(ME)));

replace your package name with applications package name (application id). This will take you the market (via market app on phone). The user can then choose to rate and/or leave comment via market interface.

I suggest hitting up that android documentation

I know they cant' post via web but and have to post on the phone, that's why I'm asking the user on the phone to leave a comment. Are you really serious there is no direct link I can put in the app to take the user to the comments section instead of the app main page? Even iOS allows this. Thanks for the reply. Not trying to doubt you it just seems strange or a huge oversite on google's part.

Seriously, there is no way to take them directly to the rating and comments section.

This link has a good idea on how to send a message to the user asking them to rate the app.

Thanks for the link. I have already written some similar code, I was just hoping for a direct link.

on the side note, though I haven't tried this and completely forgot about it in my original post - appbrain.com lets you post comments on web for your app. They're able to pull in comments from android market, not sure if they're able to push them back there
