Android Market - how do you add a comment and rating?

I really want to add comments and ratings to a number of applications in the free Market, but I can't see any way to do it. :thinking: How are you meant to add a comment?

Maybe it's because I'm in Denmark, which should get/have gotten access to paid Market apps, but even so does not seem to offer paid apps yet. If that's the case, it's kinda dumb that you can't even comment on the free stuff. :eek:

So, how are you meant to add a comment? Either I'm doing it wrong, or I'm not able to -- I'd like to know which is the case.

Can do it even at each app but yes it's more convenient to do it from MyDownloads

Didn't know we need to rate to see the add comment; so thnx for da double info!

Anyone know about rating apps on the honeycomb version of the market? The "my review" isn't in "my apps" section nor on the app details page.

Make sure you are logged in to your account and select one of your installed apps. The usual description and details page comes up, but you will notice that the description frame has tabs at the top, including a reviews tab. When you are logged in, clicking on that tab, will give all of the reviews with the option to "write a review". I'm a bit of a newbie myself and starting out in Android with Honeycomb has had its disadvantages. Hope this helps.

rhippler/jenny;

Have you not tried following justjimpc's instructions re: app rating requirement?

I couldn't figure it out either till just now, but have no issues anymore...you can submit rating while in the Android market app, or through app settings under "downloaded".

If u have tried this already, apologies for my ignorance, and can't help any further. Maybe something to do with ur Android OS or phone model?...

(Running OS 2.3 on HTC Incredible-S) :thinking:
