Review schema markup, on paid plans

Paid widgets add schema.org Review and AggregateRating JSON-LD to the page they sit on, so search engines and AI answer engines can read your Google Play reviews as structured data. Google does not show review stars for reviews a business shows about itself, so the gain is readability, not stars. The free plan shows the reviews without the schema. See how the schema works

How to Add Google Play Reviews to Blogger

Connect your Google Play profile in BlooTrue, pick a style, then paste one embed code into the HTML/JavaScript gadget on Blogger and publish.

  1. 1

    In Blogger, open Layout.

  2. 2

    Click Add a Gadget where the reviews should appear and choose HTML/JavaScript.

  3. 3

    Paste the BlooTrue embed code and save the gadget.

  4. 4

    Save the layout arrangement — the widget renders on the blog.

For a single post instead of the layout, switch the post editor to HTML view before pasting — Compose view escapes the code.

Where the Code Goes on Blogger

On Blogger the snippet lives in an HTML/JavaScript gadget, added from the Layout page through Add a Gadget in the section you choose.

Layout shows only a box with the gadget's title, never the reviews; the blog itself renders them once you save the gadget and then the layout arrangement. Width follows the section: a sidebar gadget is narrow, while a gadget below the header spans the full column. To put the widget inside one post instead, switch the post editor to HTML view first, because Compose view converts the code into escaped text.

If the widget does not show on Blogger

  • Code appearing as text on the blog means it was pasted in Compose view; open the post in HTML view, paste again and update the post.
  • If the reviews are missing after saving the gadget, check that you also saved the layout arrangement; the gadget change is not live until then.
  • Reviews look cramped in the sidebar? Move the HTML/JavaScript gadget to a section below the header so it gets the full width.

Still blank? Our help article Widget not showing covers the checks that apply on every site.

Google Play Review Widget for Blogger — Free, No Plugin

Embed Google Play reviews on any Blogger page with a single copy-paste embed code. Your Google Play rating and reviews, embedded on your website. Installs via the HTML/JavaScript gadget.

Where Google Play reviews help most on Blogger

App companies on Blogger often run a blog and a help centre next to the landing pages.

Put the Google Play widget on the home page and on any page that ranks for searches like best app for a task, where visitors are comparing options. Help articles are read by people who already installed the app, so leave the widget off them. Posts that explain a problem the app solves bring in readers who check ratings before installing, and a compact widget beside the store link at the end of those posts meets them at that moment.

About Google Play reviews in this widget

The Google Play widget puts your app's Play Store rating out of 5, its review count and the user reviews from its store listing on your site, all read from Google Play. Reviews on Google Play come from Google accounts that installed the app, and the header figure is Google's, not one the widget works out. Site owners' usual mistake is picking the Google source instead of Google Play. Google reviews belong to a Business Profile, the map listing for a shop or office, and are unrelated to your app. Choose Google Play and paste the store listing URL.

Google Play Widget on Blogger — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue Google Play review widget free for Blogger?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed Google Play reviews on Blogger. No plugin, no recurring fee, unlimited views. The free plan shows your reviews with BlooTrue branding in the footer; paid plans remove the branding.
How do I install the widget on Blogger?
In Blogger, open Layout. Click Add a Gadget where the reviews should appear and choose HTML/JavaScript. Paste the BlooTrue embed code and save the gadget. Save the layout arrangement — the widget renders on the blog.
Anything specific to Blogger worth knowing before I embed?
For a single post instead of the layout, switch the post editor to HTML view before pasting — Compose view escapes the code.
Where should I place Google Play reviews on Blogger for the biggest lift?
The sidebar for every-page visibility, or a full-width gadget below the header.
Do the reviews stay up to date automatically?
Paid plans auto-sync your Google Play reviews daily, so the widget always shows your latest 5-star reviews without touching Blogger again. The free plan shows the reviews imported at setup.
What Google Play link does the builder want for my app?
Your app's store listing, whose address starts with play.google.com/store/apps/details?id= followed by the app's package name, for example com.example.myapp. That listing holds the rating, the review count and the user reviews the widget reads. Paste it, pick a layout and copy the one-line embed onto your download page.
Do my iOS App Store reviews show in the Google Play widget?
No. The Google Play widget reads one thing, your app's Play Store listing, so its header carries the Play rating and count and its list holds the reviews Android users left there. Apple's store is a different platform with its own reviews, and nothing from it can enter this widget; use it on the Android download page.
Our last update brought a wave of one-star Play reviews, will they show on my site?
Not on the free plan, which lists only Google Play reviews rated four stars and above. The store rating in the header is a separate matter: it is the figure from your listing, so if that rating fell after the release, the header shows the lower number the next time the widget refreshes, and free widgets never refresh.
