[Shopify] Action required - Product Reviews app deprecation

[papy]

Just received this email, can’t recall if there’s been a previous one. Links removed.

Effective May 6, 2024, the ‘Product Reviews’ app by Shopify will be deprecated. Please take the following steps to ensure you don’t lose any product reviews:

Next steps

1. [Export product reviews] from the ‘Product Reviews’ app. All reviews will be deleted on May 6, 2024.

2. Install an alternative [review app] and upload your exported reviews.

Though we are sunsetting the ‘Product Reviews’ app, we understand the value of product reviews in helping buyers make confident purchasing decisions. To keep the reviews you’ve collected using the ‘Product Reviews’ app, you’ll need to export them and upload them to a new reviews app from the Shopify App Store.

Five of the most popular product review apps in the Shopify App store are now integrated with Shopify metaobjects to facilitate easy syncing of reviews between channels, including your online store and the Shop app. These apps boast the same features as the ‘Product Reviews’ app and offer free plans to support your transition:*

• Yotpo Product Reviews and UGC
  • Collect Product Reviews and Ratings, UGC, Social Proof, Photos
• Judge.me Product Reviews
  • Product reviews with photos & videos for social proof & SEO
• Loox Product Reviews & Photos
  • Social Proof Marketing: Product Reviews, Referrals and Upsell
• Okendo: Product Reviews & UGC
  • Product ratings, reviews, photos/videos, UGC, Q&A, feedback
• Stamped Product Reviews & UGC
  • Product reviews & rating app, photo reviews, referrals, NPS

3. [Uninstall the ‘Product Reviews’ app]
