My Question or Issue

I can't find an option to rate any podcasts. I've tried following instructions that I googled, but the feature just isn't there. I open the podcast page (using the Android App), and there are no ratings visible, nor an option to rate. I click on the three dot symbol for more options, and there are only options to share or to stop following the podcast, but not to rate. Is the rating feature just not available at all in my geographical location, or..?

Hey @ceruleantide,

To make sure this isn't visible for you, we'd like to ask you to follow these steps:
Open the Spotify app on your device.

1. Tap the Search tab, then type the podcast's name on the search bar; this will lead you to the podcast's show page. If you are on a specific episode, just tap on the podcast's thumbnail and title to be redirected back to the show page.
2. Tap the rating immediately underneath the podcast's description. Alternatively, tap the More (…) icon, then choose Rate show.
3. Drag your finger or tap on one of the five stars to leave a rating.

This is how the feature should work on Android.
If this looks different for you, we'd like to know what your OS and Spotify versions are 🙂
Many thanks!

P.S. Screenshots are always appreciated!

I have Android 12 and Spotify 8.7.64.478.

When I have the show page open, there are no ratings under the description. Same when expanding the description. When I tap the more icon, there is no option to rate. Only to unfollow or share.

I see the star button for rating in the desktop app, but I can't rate from there, as it says "Go to your phone to rate this show"
