Best practices for asking user to "Rate my app"

I'm working on my first big project that will be released.


When should I prompt the user to rate my app? Is it generally best to have it go off after a user has reached a certain point in my app (game app) or have a timer that will send the notification off once the user has been playing my app for a certain period of time?


Opinions, experiences, and how each compares to the other are all welcome.


Thanks,

Hello Memj.


I will start off by admitting that I haven't had any experience with putting up an app on the app store...YET! That said, may I suggest that you simply put yourself in your users shoes. (if this is obvious and you have already thought that, ignore me) That is what I will do when I get to your stage.


Also, google your question. There might be many write ups on that very topic.


And good luck on putting your project up for sale. You must be very excited.
