Software Center should display my review when viewing installed apps

[Dave Vree]

New feature request on Ubuntu 11.10 software center.

When displaying install applications in the software center, the user is presented with a long list of apps by category, but it would be very nice to also see my own reviews of those apps. This would:

1) Allow me to see which apps I've provided reviews for and which ones I haven't
2) Remind me of what I last thought about an app so I could amend my review based on a new version of the app

Take a cue from the Andriod market...it does this very nicely.

Hi Dave, and thank you for your suggestion. I have set this as a wishlist item so that we can track it when planning/implementing enhancements and new features. I have also set it as triaged since I think we have enough information to move to the next step, which is to do the details UI design.

Many thanks for your help!

The Android Market has been replaced by Google Play, which currently does not let you list your own reviews. <http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/42126/where-i-can-find-my-own-google-play-reviews-and-ratings>

The design spec currently suggests that your own review should appear first in the list. "Next should be the five most relevant reviews for the item ... 1. any review that you have submitted previously (regardless of version)..." <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter/RatingsAndReviews#reviews-reading> But I agree it would be interesting to see a list of your own reviews as well. Perhaps Reviews could be included, with their own filter, in the "History" screen.
