Do you rate applications you install?, Do you also review?

Just curious whether anyone actually bother to go back to the AppStore and rate the apps after using them. I find myself doing this whenever there's a ratings system.
But I find the AppStore not very user-friendly to people who actually want to rate and review applications. It's a little tedious to try to go back to rate applications. Sure, there the new "Purchased" tab. But it doesn't remember what page I'm on.
Example: I click on iPhone section, go to page 2, click on an app, rate it, click back, it loads iPad page 1 again.
I wish it shows which app I haven't rated yet.
I don't know if it's just me, but I never my rating or review affect the app page. I click the star, wait for the "Thanks" response, then leave the page. When I reopen that page, my rating is empty and the ratings count didn't increase. And I haven't managed to see my reviews appear yet. I wonder whether my rating is even counted.
No wonder most apps on AppStore don't have ratings, and no wonder only a very few apps even have more than a hundred ratings. Compare this to Android Market's hundreds and thousands of ratings for many apps.

On average only about 5% of people will rate an app. Apps that are awesome or apps that sucks tend to receive more ratings, naturally.
Also, you may be viewing the Malaysian app store instead of the U.S. one. So there will be way less ratings because of the smaller market.

I just wish the app store loads a little faster. It's really tedious to try to go through all the apps you've recently installed. |
