Temu pauses Google Ads, falls from #2 to #19 in app store

Shopee has even worse behavior around reviews. You can't even leave a review past the first few days, and they bribe you with shopee points to leave a review.

The result is people opening the box, going yep, it works, 5 stars, gimme those points.

If it breaks a week or so later? Too late! No way to give feedback.

I use shopee and find the reviews fair. Like everything else, you have to learn how to take the most out of a limited system.

My experience so far has been good. Negative reviews seem fair, and give a good indication of what to expect (maybe I've lowered my expectations from the start).

Shopee allows you to post follow-up reviews, and gives you a grace period of 45 days to post reviews.

If you want compare, at least compare with facts.

I just checked and I cannot edit any old ratings. Maybe it's something you can only do through the app?

I can't install the app because I travel between countries and they block my Google account from installing the local app. I'm sure there's ways around that but I'd rather just use the website.
