Just not a good app. The scan takes such a long time, which would be fair enough, but this app makes you sit there and wait for the scan to complete (could be minutes long), and if you go to another app in the meantime you instantly abort the scan. App has no interface or functionality of its own. Copying and pasting the product links into their website manually through a browser is literally the better option over using the app. Just poor, period. No point to its existence.

This is very exciting, and I look forward to this tech developing and improving. With Covid-19, I've started shopping online more, cautiously, and noticed the often unreliability of reviews and ratings. I hope Amazon and other companies start to employ this technology in fighting against inflated ratings. Ratings used to be very helpful but are now flooded with fakes. Great job! And easy to use. Hang in there Fakespot, don't sell out, and keep improving this. We all need it!

I've been using fakespot for a long time, This app/site has never failed me. When I'm looking for something unpopular like heated jackets last year, it seemed like each one had an F or D rating, I did eventually find one with an A and It's been a great jacket. Looking at popular items I find a lot more As and Bs, from what I understand the grades are for the company as a whole but I focus more on the adjusted star rat ing after fakes are removed. The anaylis time is long but it's ok.

I use Fakespot in my browser and love it, it's very helpful! Unfortunately though i downloaded the app on my S20 Plus to analyze play store reviews after finding some terrible apps have impossibly good ratings, and it won't actually do that. I will redownload in the future if they add that capability.

Great concept but app needs improvement. Slow analysis time. Doesn't pick up correct content for description, comments, ratings etc. Rates some products with fake ratings as trustworthy. Would be nice to see brands like Amazon, eBay, Kijiji and all online retailers incorporate this kind of "trust validation" functionality into their apps & websites.

WTH? Something weird is going on....suddenly things with a D or F are coming up A on reanalysis, and the reviews changed- i.e gone from 5 to 3 avg stars, etc to be more honest. Today this has happened for every product I have reanalyzed. I already knew I couldn't trust Amazon reviews- now I cannot even trust these? Now what? Guess I just have to be sure everything I buy from Amazon can be returned if it doesn't work.
