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.

Shopify product review apps are necessary for your eCommerce store because they help you gather reviews from your customers and easily display them on your storefront.

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.
