Having a button that goes to give a review to my app?

I was wondering how I could implement having a button in my app that is linked to my Google Play app page in order to encourage people to give reviews for my app. If someone can answer me I would greatly appreciate it. I'm using Android Studio. Thanks.

Pretty easy, you can look up for your app in the store by your package name(the package name makes an application unique)

button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" +getApplicationContext().getPackageName())));
        }
    }
);

with your button setting onclick listeners and all that put this code in it

Button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View arg0) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                final String myappPackageName = getPackageName(); // getPackageName() from Context or Activity object
                try {
                 startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + myappPackageName)));
                } catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
                 startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + myappPackageName)));
            }
        });

the catch helps prevent exception if user doesn't have google play installed.. hope it helps
