How to redirect user to the review tab of the app page on Google Play from a browser?

I have an app published on google play. I want a url that redirects users to the review tab on the app's page on google play!

In the documentation of publishing an app, there is url for redirecting the user to the details tab (default) of the app. I want when a user clicks the link which i ll publish on some webpages (like "Write a Review"), the landing page shouuld have the review tab opened on the apps page on google play!

This doesn't works anymore because google has issued guidelines that we cannot ask if the user likes the app and then (if they do) redirect them to play store to rate the app.

As mentioned by the google:

Your app should not ask the user any questions before or while presenting the rating button or card, including questions about their opinion (such as “Do you like the app?”) or predictive questions (such as “Would you rate this app 5 stars”).

Just to update this, I don't think this is possible anymore. It does not say so in the Linking to Google Play documentation: https://developer.android.com/distribute/marketing-tools/linking-to-google-play

Just redirect to the page of your application, "Rate this App" part is seen right away and user can see the "Write a review" link too.

Here's a hack that works: append &reviewId=0 to the end of the URL.

The reviewId parameter allows you to link to a particular review, but if the review is not found, you simply end up in the "User Reviews" tab.

Example: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cureatr.messenger&reviewId=0
