Better question: who the hell is giving these apps (or really any apps) five stars?

I don’t rate the apps I use unless other than to give it 1 star for doing something I hate. My banking app’s transaction search doesn’t work at all, so it gets 1 star. But 1.9M ratings resulted in a 5 star average — who are the freaks giving their banking app 5 stars and why?

looks like about 400,000 people for Onedrive rating 5 stars

looks like millions for my banking app (Chase) rating 5 stars

do you really not understand why people might do things different from you?

After seeing almost everything on Amazon rated about 4.4 out of 5, seeing OneDrive rated a 5 looks like rating manipulation.

hundreds of thousands and millions of fake reviews. it’s all manipulation!
