I see on iTunes Connect in AppAnalytics/SalesAndTrends sections only app units (that means the difference of app installs from previous week/month).
Where can I see the total app installs number?
Thanks
As of this post I was able to get lifetime numbers. From the App Store Connect dashboard nagivate to 'Sales and Trends'. From there click 'Units' (left nav, under 'Sales'). Then click the date selection input- 'Lifetime' should appear in the date selection popover.
iTunes Connect provide a date filter for how many time apps were installed during a particular time period. You can use that filter for this situation.

In version 1.0, users can rate the app without a problem.
However, in version 2.0, the rating box does not appear
The function called to show the rating box is the same in both versions:
SKStoreReviewController.requestReview()
Why the rate box is not shown? Possible reasons:
When building in Xсode, the rating box is shown.
When building from a CI solution for release, the rating box is NOT shown.
When running from TestFlight, the rating box is NOT shown.
When running from the AppStore, only users who purchased (free or paid) your app will see it.
When running from the AppStore, users who obtain your app via Connect promo codes will NOT see it.
If a user leaves a rating, the app can not show the rating box for at least a year afterwards and after a new version has been released.
Apps can only prompt users for a rating or review three times in a year regardless of the version number updates.
Users are also given more control about whether they want to be asked to review apps at all. In Settings, there is a global switch to suppress these alerts from ever appearing (Settings → iTunes & App Store → In-App Ratings & Reviews).
Apple has explicitly limited how often the rating box can be shown to users. Here's the relevant excerpt:
The user can supply feedback or dismiss the prompt with a single tap. (In Settings, the user can also opt out of receiving these rating prompts for all apps they have installed.) The system automatically limits the display of the prompt to three occurrences per app within a 365-day period.

I'm close to uploading my next app. And during the first month I would like to offer one of my in app purchases as "pre-installed" to get enough downloads. I mean it should be as if the user already bought it. Is there a way to do this? After the first month new users should need to pay for it but existing users still should have it free.
You can do this in iTunes Connect. You will have to create an in-app purchase for your unlock. You can then increase/decrease the price for a certain amount of time. Go to the in-app-ourchase in iTunes Connect and click the Edit button.
I have uploaded my one app in Apple Store, its live. Now i need to send metadata for the new version of the same app. But before uploading new binary for second version, i need to change large app icon (1024x1024). Currently my new version app status is "Prepare for Upload" and first version app status is "Ready for sale" on iTunes connect. Now after clicking on edit option in Version Information section. I have changed the app large logo successfully..but when i am clicking on save button then its not saving properly, and i am getting below error :
Select a frequency/intensity level for each Apple content description.
I have checked this link also : How do you change the app store's large icon on iTunes connect?
I think this error related to Ratings, i have given all the ratings of Apple content description as None (Total 4+ Ratings). Please help me to solve this error. I have attached screenshot for reference.. Thanks
If you couldn't find edit button for age rating like me in the app information page, It is in the preparing for submission page.
The alert indicates you have not filled all the Rating - Apple Content Descriptions which is below in your screenshot.
Let's go quick to the answer you need and then to the explanation. When you update your app, you have to check some checkboxes that are not by default:
As you can see in the image, my app has three rating fields that are empty: Medical / Treatment information, Unrestricted Web Access and Gambling and Contests.
You should check those for your app.
Now for the longer explanation:
In the case that you have filled all data, then I recommend to switch to another Internet browser, since it could also be a problem with processing the data you are submitting.
By the way, Apple changed the section. You may have received an e-mail:
There have been several recent changes that may impact the content rating of your apps. These changes give users more information about your apps and help ensure legal compliance.
New App Content Descriptions
You can now use the following descriptions: Medical/Treatment Information, Gambling and Contests, and Unrestricted Web Access (for apps that permit navigating and viewing web pages, for example with an embedded browser).
Update to Territory-Specific Restrictions Based on Rating
Territory-specific restrictions in the Korea, Brazil, United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia App Stores have changed. You can see the current rating and territory restrictions for your apps in Manage Your Apps on iTunes Connect.
New Rating System for the Brazil App Store
In case you had difficulty finding the ratings section in the new iTunes Connect:
In the new iTunes Connect (2014) under the versions tab, scroll down to General App Information where you will see a small section titled Rating with a blue button titled edit. Tapping this button will bring up the Ratings section where you must make sure all fields are check-boxed. See attached screenshot
As described in the alert (Red text), make sure you have selected either of the options for all Content Descriptions.
Go to General -> App Information -> General App Information -> Age Rating -> Edit
Is it possible to automatically download the current pricing matrix from iTunes connect?
I'm talking about the table of pricing tiers that shows you their value in various currencies. You can see it on the iTunes connect site when you're selecting a pricing tier for an app (or in app purchase).
Aside from manually copy and pasting from iTunes connect, or writing my own scraping code, is there an existing solution to get the most recent version of that table in a form that I can work with from code?
Discovered here
Log in to iTunes Connect and then visit this link, replacing [app-id] with an id from one of your apps.
https://itunesconnect.apple.com/WebObjects/iTunesConnect.woa/ra/apps/[app-id]/pricing/matrix
This is not an official public API and may change, but it is currently working.
Is it possible to limit the countries an iOS application is released to? Is it possible to limit a version to a certain country?
If so, where could I find more information. I attempted searching the documentation but was unable to locate decisive information regarding this. Thanks in advance.
Yes, you can control which App Stores you app is sold in. This can be done in iTunes Connect.
First, choose your app from your App Dashboard. Next, look for "Rights and Pricing" in the top right corner.
Next, scroll down. You will see a link to sell in specific countries.
After clicking on that link, you will be able to select which stores your app is for sale in.
In App Store Connect as of March 2021
1. Click your app dropdown
2. Click Pricing and Availability,
Under Availability click EDIT
you'll see
Yes, you can set the stores it will be available in when you upload. It's under one of the tabs, where you set the price.
You can select the territories where you want your app to be available
on the App Store.
By default, all countries or regions are selected, but you can
deselect territories where you don’t want your app for sale.
