If your app is missing a feature, it is less useful and thus deserves less stars. If it has more features, it is better and deserves more. This is another developer entitlement issue. Users aren't going to give you five stars because your one feature works really super well even though you have five missing features that don't work at all.

Your app can and should be ranked against other apps that are more fully featured and usable. If you aren't on the upper side of the curve quit spending time complaining about it and spend some more time learning and using that to code your app to be better.

"If it has more features, it is better and deserves more."

Perhaps you're not a mobile developer. Mobile apps are about focused user experiences. Tight features that make sense within the context of the app. You wouldn't drop a crossword puzzle into an RSS reader app (even though newspapers have crossword puzzles... yes I had a user suggest this for my iPad newspaper app).

When users suggest a feature that should be there and it's not, that's fantastic, that's a totally different thing. I'm talking about unrelated, ridiculous requests that make no sense, or they make sense to 1 person in the entire world: the reviewer.

Yikes - reading this on my iPhone and accidentally tapped tiny downvote arrow instead of tiny upvote arrow. Can someone upvote Mike for me? Thank you.

Thanks Paul, it's upvoted in my mind :)
