- Karunamon 14y agoAndroid doesn't let you rate things until after you've downloaded them, though. If that's truly the cause of these ratings, people are going through a lot of work to just say "facebook sucks".
- smackfu 14y agoActually, it does seem like a lot of people are writing somewhat legit reviews, although they show a pretty complete lack of understanding of what Facebook Home is. Stuff like "takes over my phone" and "hides my widgets" are the point of the app.
- incision 14y agoYep. At least you're required to install (Sort of, just hit install. Even if you cancel immediately, the option to review remains available) an app before being able to post a review on Play, it's surely a small deterrent, but the effect would surely be worse without it. I've been hoping Amazon would start culling non-verified purchases for a while now as they're quite established and the site has become the default soapbox for consumer outrage.
