To leave a Google review, you can use either a web browser or the Google Maps app. Here are the steps for both methods:
Leaving a Google Review via Browser
- Sign in to your Google account.
- In the Google search bar, type the name of the business you want to review.
- On the business profile that appears (usually on the right side of the search results), scroll to find the "Write a review" button and click it.
- Select a star rating from 1 to 5 stars.
- Write your review describing your experience.
- Optionally, add photos or videos.
- Click "Post" to publish your review
Leaving a Google Review via Google Maps App
- Open the Google Maps app on your Android or iOS device.
- Search for the business you want to review.
- Tap the business name or banner at the bottom to open its profile.
- Scroll down to the reviews section and tap the stars to rate the business.
- Write your review in the text box.
- Optionally, add photos from your device.
- Tap "Post" to submit your review
Additional Notes
- You need a Google account to leave a review, but it does not have to be a Gmail account; you can link a non-Gmail email to create a Google account for reviews
- Be honest and specific in your review, mentioning details about your experience to help others make informed decisions
- Reviews appear publicly on Google and can influence the business's reputation
This process is straightforward and can be done quickly on desktop or mobile devices.
