Collecting and showcasing reviews on your online store is vital to building trust with your customers because reviews act as an impactful form of social proof.&#x20;

[Shopify product review apps](https://apps.shopify.com/categories/store-design-social-proof-product-reviews) are necessary for your eCommerce store because they help you gather reviews from your customers and easily display them on your storefront.&#x20;

If you've already decided on the best-fit product review app and [had the option installed](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/apps/working-with-apps#install-an-app) in your Shopify store, follow the steps below to add the review feature to your products.

The process may be a bit different according to the app you use. We advise you to familiarize yourself with the app manual for a thorough overview of the platform.

If you're stuck with something, contact us via our [live chat](https://foxecom.com/) or [email](mailto:happytohelp@gmail.com). We're happy to assist! :angel:
