Has Apple removed the ability to rate a review in the iPhone app store?

Until recently, (iOS 15.7) you could read a review in the iPhone App Store and press down on the words and you would get an option of "Helpful" or "Not helpful". This gave reviews ratings and pushed the more helpful reviews to the top. Although, I frequently want to read a review that are the most recent.

Pressing on the review to rate it no longer works (iOS 16.1.1). If that's the case, I guess reviews can no longer be sorted by "helpfulness".

Good day to you Ziatron,

You’ve mentioned attempting to mark a review as helpful or not helpful. Are you able to leave App Store reviews or are you finding that feature to be non existent as well?

It would also be helpful to know what you do see when you tap and hold on a review in iOS 16.

Thanks.
