A mailto link is enough for many apps. When users need to see and vote on each other's requests, here is what building it yourself actually involves.

A portal asks users to leave your app, make an account, and remember why they were annoyed. Each step drops people. In-app skips all three.

In Review, Planned, In Progress, Shipped, Closed. What each one promises the person who asked, and why the fifth had to be a bucket rather than a verdict.
Ship feedback that listens.
Collect feedback inside your app and let users vote on what ships next.
