The problem isn't so much that people are complaining it doesn't work with iOS 7, it's that those reviews are usually accompanied by a low star rating or, in some cases, harsh criticism based upon the user's ignorance. I don't mean ignorant in a harsh or derogatory way, I mean it literally - the user doesn't know why and assumes that because the app is the thing that is crashing, it must be the app.
- deong 13y agoI would expect that sort of user to (a) probably not be running an iOS beta, and (b) less likely to think to report it as not working on iOS 7 specifically. I'm sure in both cases there are exceptions, but it's surely not the majority. Agreed, the 1-star reviews are unfortunate. That's exactly what I was talking about as well. I just don't think it's a big enough problem to justify removing the ability for people to post useful information regarding compatibility with an OS version that exists in the field in significant numbers.
- aetch 13y agoFor your first expectation, (a), ignorant users are EXACTLY the type of users who are running the iOS beta and (b) more likely the rate the app 1 star considering that they had the ask a developer friend to download the beta for them or get a cracked beta. This is definitely the majority in the case of these 1 star reviews. Although yes, I do not see these reviews causing a huge impact as of yet.
