In today's mobile-first world, app reviews are a cornerstone in the customer feedback ecosystem. Feedback from sources like the Apple iOS App Store and Google Play Store offer invaluable insights into what your customers think, how they feel, and how they interact with your app. However, when faced with thousands of reviews, analyzing this feedback manually can be daunting, time-consuming, and fraught with human error.

Enter Viable, an AI-powered analysis tool designed to transform overwhelming amounts of feedback data into actionable insights.

The untapped potential of app store reviews

App store reviews provide a unique opportunity to gauge customer sentiment. These reviews aren’t limited to the usability or technical performance of your app—they also encompass feedback about the services and products your company offers, making them an incredibly valuable resource for customer experience management. They often reveal previously unknown customer pain points, highlight favorite features, and provide suggestions for improvement. They’re also spontaneous and honest, providing both positive comments, constructive criticism, and a comprehensive overview of customer sentiment​.

Despite their value, the process of manually sifting through and making sense of app store reviews can be daunting. With traditional tools, this involves exporting data, tagging it manually, and identifying actionable themes for follow-up. This method is resource-intensive and makes it challenging to get a clear overview of the feedback due to the sheer volume of data​.
