The launch of this feature was spotted by Mishaal Rahman of Esper who revealed that this will be live for all users soon.
How Play Store Rating System Works?
With this, Google Play Store will show ratings according to the devices they are available on with users on phones being able to further filter by the country or region. Upon receiving this feature, users will be notified regarding this feature and how they are calculated upon opening the app. In case, you need a review with respect to a specific device, you can filter according to the type of device. In my opinion, it is a good step, however, more work needs to be done. Currently, the foldable devices are categorized as tablets by Google, so this might create an issue finding and filtering the search for reviews. While this won’t be a big issue, Google needs to change its search algorithm with the changing landscape in the mobile market.
