Show Review Status on Shopify Customer Account Page
To enhance transparency and user experience, the app now displays the review status (Approved or Pending) directly on the Shopify Customer Account Page.
This allows customers to easily track whether their submitted reviews have been approved by the store admin or are still pending for moderation.
As shown in the screenshot above:
- If the review is approved, a green “Approved” label will be visible.
- If the review is still under moderation, a yellow “Pending” label will be shown.
This small yet significant update helps build trust with customers and keeps them informed about their contributions to the store.
Mail Notification on Review Edit by Customer
To ensure that merchants stay informed about customer interactions, the app now supports email notifications whenever a customer edits an existing product review.
This helps store owners to:
- Stay aware of any changes in customer feedback.
- Take timely action if the updated review indicates an issue.
- Maintain accurate moderation and approval workflows.
This feature ensures better communication between the store and the customers and improves overall store management efficiency.
Customers now have the option to specify their gender when submitting a review.
Customers can filter reviews by selecting a specific star rating bar.
The pagination feature for the review list allows customers to control how many reviews they view at a time.
Customers can click on the "View all reviews" option to see more reviews.
When they select this option on a Shopify product page, they will be redirected to another page displaying all reviews for that product.
Only logged-in customers will be able to see the product reviews on that page, while other customers will see a blank page.
