I’m doing a iPhone app and there are review requests from within the app. I want to show the requests only when the review link is accessible. (You cannot expect users to give reviews when there’s no network at all.) How to achieve this?

You can use Reachability to check network status:

However, you might want to read my recent blog post about getting 5 star reviews and re-think your strategy:
