This is such an amazing app that has saved me a lot of time & money by weeding out all the fake reviews these deceiving companies do to us! PLEASE FAKESPOT reconsider providing us your excellent customer service??? If I could give this app 10 stars I would! ### 5/5 — PLEASE DON’T SHUT DOWN *2025-05-26* I need you ☹️ I have always relied on this app since I downloaded it. Unsure if there’s another app like this.😭 ### 5/5 — The BEST! MUST HAVE. SAVE FAKESPOT!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ *2025-05-23, version 1.2.7* The BEST! MUST HAVE. SAVE FAKESPOT!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 4/5 — It is so sad to see goodbye *2025-05-23* I have been using fakespot for very long time. I cannot find any other one that is as good as this one. I will be so sad.. ### 1/5 — Literally does nothing *2025-04-12* It’s a browser. It allows you to submit URLs and move pages forward/backwards. That is all. Probably the most absolute braindead application I’ve ever encountered. Very, very terrible job on the developer’s end. ### 4/5 — Great app with one annoyance *2025-03-31, version 1.2.7* Very useful for weeding out fake ratings. Unfortunately, you can’t move the bottom bar which covers the button that allows you to apply Amazon filters. This means that when you try to filter prices by price, etc., you can’t push the button to apply the filter, which prevents you from using Amazon filters. ### 4/5 — Good, but don’t use it directly *2025-03-26, version 1.2.7* It’s alright, but a little clunky. The app is actually better used when it’s not directly used, and I will try to explain what I mean. If you’re using the app, you’re basically just using it as a browser to go on marketplace websites like Amazon. The main difference is that when looking at a product (and you have to click on the product, the search results page gives you no extra information than any other browser) you have the “Fakespot Review Grade” available to you, which is a letter grade, and two star ratings: the star rating the website has and then the Fakespot “adjusted” one, but this isn’t really much information at all. You then have the option to open the full analysis on the actual Fakespot website, and it’s just strange to me as to why you wouldn’t just have the analysis readily available in the first place instead so that you can actually see how the review grade was decided without the extra step. Because of this, it’s actually better to use this app indirectly via the share menu when looking at a product on say, the Amazon app. When you tap the share option (the box with the arrow), then “More”, you should be taken to the standard iOS share menu. Scrolling down should give you an option to “Analyze with Fakespot”, and this option actually does give you the full analysis immediately. If it’s not there, you may need to add it from the “Edit Actions” menu. This method is preferable to me instead of using the app, because honestly my main gripe with the app (and what drove me to write this unnecessarily long review) is that for some reason, it starts autoplaying ANY video that is currently on your screen as if you clicked on it to view it, which puts the screen in “theatre mode” so that only the video is shown and the rest of the screen is blacked out. It’s INCREDIBLY annoying because Amazon is riddled with these videos. If the product page has a video, even if it’s not the first image, it will autoplay regardless as soon as the page loads. EVERY time a sponsored video of a product shows up when you’re scrolling down on a search results page, your screen will black out with only the video being shown and you have to click out of it. As far as I can see, there’s no setting that turns this off. I have no idea whether this was an intended feature or not but it renders the app basically unusable for me because I’m constantly interrupted by a video. So basically, the app is good, but only if you’re not directly using it. ### 1/5 — Boomers pay attention *2025-01-09, version 1.2.7* Downloading this “app” does two things: 1. It gives you an app with a browser that no one uses. 2. It gives you an extension in Amazon that when you click the box with an up arrow (usually on the picture of the item) you can choose “analyze with fake spot” No need to use the app, or create an account, or login to anything. Just open Amazon. You’re welcome ### 3/5 — It just looks at other reviews. *2024-12-12* Not quite sure how this is so beneficial for my online shopping… ### 1/5 — Very confusing *2024-12-06, version 1.2.7* I have no idea how to use this app. The instructions are simple but confusing. Went to Amazon and didn’t see any thing from Fakespot. Deleting…. ## Frequently asked questions about Fakespot Pro Browser ### What does Fakespot Pro Browser do?
