There is no registered handler for the itms-apps URL scheme - Rate Simulator button

I am making a RATE button for iPad Pro. When you click the Rate button, the debug area shows ...

LaunchServices: ERROR: no itms-apps URL Schema Handler registered

-(IBAction)RateButton:(id)sender{ [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"itms-apps://itunes.apple.com/app/id12345678"]]; }

Why am I getting a "registered handler for URL scheme" error when I have a URL present in the code?

The URL you are using is correct. BUT, if you try this on a simulator, this will not work, and this will show this exact error. The App Store app URL scheme works only on the device.

You cannot connect to the ios app store (iPhone) if you are on a simulator. This url is not working because you are not on an ios device. IOS devices can only connect to the ios app store.
