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 Shopify

Connect your Google Play profile in BlooTrue, pick a style, then paste one embed code into the Custom Liquid section on Shopify and publish.

  1. 1

    Open your theme in the Shopify admin (Online Store → Themes → Customize).

  2. 2

    On the page, click Add section (or Add block) and choose Custom Liquid.

  3. 3

    Paste the BlooTrue embed code into the Custom Liquid field.

  4. 4

    Save — the widget renders on the live storefront.

Paste into Custom Liquid, not a Rich Text section — rich text strips script tags. Older vintage themes can use an HTML section or the page's Show HTML editor view.

Where the Code Goes on Shopify

On Shopify the embed code belongs in a Custom Liquid section or block, added through Online Store → Themes → Customize.

The Customize preview usually executes the script, so you tend to see the reviews before you save. The section spans the page width your theme sets, and the widget's own height decides how tall it gets. Do not use a Rich Text section, because Shopify strips script tags from it. Older vintage themes without Custom Liquid can use an HTML section or the page's Show HTML editor view in the admin.

If the widget does not show on Shopify

  • If the reviews are missing, check that you used Custom Liquid. A Rich Text section removes the script tag and leaves nothing to render.
  • On a vintage theme with no Custom Liquid option, add an HTML section, or open the page in Shopify admin and use the Show HTML view.
  • Widget on the homepage but not on products? Custom Liquid sections are per template, so add another one to the product template under the buy box.

Google Play Review Widget for Shopify — Free, No Plugin

Embed Google Play reviews on any Shopify page with a single copy-paste embed code. Your Google Play rating and reviews, embedded on your website. Installs via the Custom Liquid section.

Where Google Play reviews help most on Shopify

An app developer selling on Shopify is usually selling a paid version, a device, subscriptions or merchandise around the app.

Where the product is the app or works with it, Google Play reviews from users are the most relevant proof, and they belong on that product page below the description. A compact badge near the Get it on Google Play button on the home page helps too. On merchandise pages, leave them off. If the app is on iPhone as well, say near the widget that the reviews come from Android users, so an iPhone buyer does not mistake them for App Store ratings.

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 Shopify — FAQ

Is the BlooTrue Google Play review widget free for Shopify?
Yes. BlooTrue is completely free to embed Google Play reviews on Shopify. 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 Shopify?
Open your theme in the Shopify admin (Online Store → Themes → Customize). On the page, click Add section (or Add block) and choose Custom Liquid. Paste the BlooTrue embed code into the Custom Liquid field. Save — the widget renders on the live storefront.
Anything specific to Shopify worth knowing before I embed?
Paste into Custom Liquid, not a Rich Text section — rich text strips script tags. Older vintage themes can use an HTML section or the page's Show HTML editor view.
Where should I place Google Play reviews on Shopify for the biggest lift?
Product pages under the buy box and the homepage below the featured collection — third-party stars at the add-to-cart moment.
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 Shopify 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.
