On iOS, we have indexed 666,355 reviews in Turkey. Out of those, 92,853 are 1 star reviews. 13.93%
On iOS, we have 32,296,341 reviews, with 3,448,351 being 1 star reviews. 10.67% one star reviews.
Let's see if we limit it to reviews in the last 2 months:
16.47% negative in Turkey (65,154 total reviews)
12.05% negative in the US (1,960,283 total reviews)
(source - internal https://sensortower.com https://sensortower.com analytics)
It's a bit harder to separate reviews between countries on Android, but we have 7,862,505 recent reviews indexed in the last 2 months on Android, and 780,997 of them are negative (9.93%). I will try to run a query with language detection, though that might take a bit of time~
- mrtksn 13y agoThank you, this is cool. It's very annoying to read comments like "I gave 1 star but it's a good game" however I wonder how much is the actual effect on the ratings.
- smilliken 13y agoI'm seeing a similar number for iOS: Rating % All % Turkish 1 09.6% 15.2% 2 03.5% 04.4% 3 06.5% 07.0% 4 16.6% 14.5% 5 63.6% 58.7% (Source: data from MixRank's iOS intelligence) There's definitely a bump in 1-star reviews in Turkey.
- pliny 13y agoCould be accounted for by apps with poor localization.
- nickff 13y agoSo these apps have approximately equally good localization for every other language, except Turkish?
- msherry 13y agoI get that you were being flippant, but apparently Turkish is unusually hard to localize for: http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2008/03/whats-wrong-with-turkey.html http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2008/03/whats-wrong-with-tu...
- phaker 13y agoThis post is a little like programming pop science: an entertaining read, but greatly overstates some small result. The only Turkish-specific problem he mentions is case folding of ı/i. This is a problem unique to Turkish, there are other problems in case folding, like eszett (ß/ss) in German but these are much less likely to trip you up. The US date format (m/d/y) is used virtually only in US, most other places use d/m/y or y/m/d. -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format_by_country#Map http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format_by_country#Map Re dots for thousands separators -- the world is split about roughly evenly on this, with all of europe (except for Great Britain and Ireland) using commas for decimals dots for thousands separators. -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_mark#Hindu.E2.80.93Arabic_numeral_system http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_mark#Hindu.E2.80.93Arab...

- tlarkworthy 13y agoThat bump may be bigger if you separate by date. If it's a new trend then the newer Turkish reviews will be the outliers.
- bnegreve 13y ago> There's definitely a bump in 1-star reviews in Turkey. Wait wait wait, the mere fact that Turkish has more 1 start review than the world average doesn't tell you anything about other countries individually. It could be that most countries are above the world average except a couple of countries with almost no 0-star reviews. If you want to make this point, at least give us the standard deviation.
- darkhorn 13y agoThat's why we don't have nice things in Turkey.
- userbinator 13y ago> 666,355 For a second I misread that as 65,536 (64K) reviews.
