title: "Rating indicators | Apple Developer Documentation" source: https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/rating-indicators # Rating indicators A rating indicator uses a series of horizontally arranged graphical symbols — by default, stars — to communicate a ranking level. A rating indicator doesn’t display partial symbols; it rounds the value to display complete symbols only. Within a rating indicator, symbols are always the same distance apart and don’t expand or shrink to fit the component’s width. ## Best practices Make it easy to change rankings. When presenting a list of ranked items, let people adjust the rank of individual items inline without navigating to a separate editing screen. If you replace the star with a custom symbol, make sure that its purpose is clear. The star is a very recognizable ranking symbol, and people may not associate other symbols with a rating scale. ## Platform considerations No additional considerations for macOS. Not supported in iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, visionOS, or watchOS. ## Resources #### Related Ratings and reviews #### Developer documentation NSLevelIndicator.Style.rating — AppKit ## Change log Date| Changes
