You can view every Google review you’ve left in Maps: Profile → Reviews on phone or desktop, and business owners use Business Profile.
Need a single place to check every rating and note you posted on Google? This guide shows quick paths on phone and computer, plus where owners read feedback for a store or service. You’ll learn the exact taps and clicks, shortcuts, and fixes when a review seems missing.
Ways To View Every Review You’ve Left On Google
Google stores your public comments under your Maps profile. You can open the list from Android, iPhone, or any web browser. Pick your device and follow the steps below.
Android
- Open Google Maps and sign in.
- Tap your profile photo → Your profile.
- Tap the Reviews tab to see your full list with dates and ratings.
iPhone
- Open Google Maps and sign in.
- Tap your profile photo → Your profile.
- Open the Reviews tab to view every place you rated or wrote about.
Desktop (maps.google.com)
- Visit Maps in a browser and sign in.
- Click the menu ☰ → Your contributions.
- Select Reviews to load your post history.
This list includes ratings you posted, text you wrote, and any edits you made later. Edits replace the prior text but keep the history date on the updated version.
Fast Reference Table: Where To Tap Or Click
The table below gives you a quick route to the same place on each platform.
| Platform | Path | What You’ll See |
|---|---|---|
| Android | Maps → Profile → Reviews | All ratings, text, edit dates |
| iPhone | Maps → Profile → Reviews | All ratings and notes |
| Desktop | Maps → Menu → Your contributions → Reviews | Chronological list with places |
Understand The Two Views: Personal Vs Business
The word “reviews” on Google covers two spaces. The first is your personal activity, which lives under your profile on Maps. The second is the feedback posted by customers about a store or service, which managers handle inside the Business Profile. Both live in Maps and Search, but the menus are different.
Personal Activity View
This is where you find posts you wrote across restaurants, hotels, shops, and more. The feed is sorted by date, with places, star ratings, and the text you wrote. You can edit, delete, or share from the three-dot menu beside each item.
Business Feedback View
If you run or manage a listing, open your Business Profile and select the reviews panel to read, reply, or report. The inbox shows a running list for that location. You can sort, filter, and respond without leaving the page. Google’s help pages confirm these entry points and controls for desktop and mobile managers. See the official guide to manage customer reviews for current buttons and flags.
Open Reviews From Search Or Maps
You don’t need a special link. On desktop, a search for your business name shows the management bar across the top when you are signed in as an owner. Click Read reviews to view and reply. On mobile, open the Maps app, switch to the correct account, find your place, and tap the reviews count.
Edit, Delete, Or Share A Review You Wrote
You can revise a typo, add details after a return visit, or remove a post you no longer want public. Your review page has a three-dot menu beside each entry. Click or tap it to edit or delete. Google documents these steps in its Maps help article on add, edit, or delete reviews.
What Changes When You Edit
- The star rating and text update right away.
- The visible date switches to the latest edit date.
- Notifications may go to the business if replies were involved.
Share Your Review
Open any item in your list and copy the link from the address bar on desktop. On mobile, use the share icon. Friends will land on the same place page with your review visible.
Sorting Tricks And Time Savers
Large lists can feel slow to scan. Use these simple moves to get to the right item fast.
- On desktop, use the browser’s find box and search for a city or brand name you remember.
- Filter by stars in the Business Profile inbox to spot items that need a reply first.
- Sort by newest to catch fresh posts before they roll off the first page.
- Keep email alerts on for new activity so you never miss a customer note.
Privacy, Visibility, And Profile Controls
Reviews on Maps are public by design. Your profile shows your name, photo, and badges tied to contributions. You can change profile settings, but you can’t make an individual review private. The profile page lists totals, likes, and views in many regions. Business owners see customer posts on the listing itself and through the management view.
How Others Find Your Posts
- From your public profile page on Maps.
- On the business’s page under the reviews tab.
- Through search results that surface place pages with your notes.
Troubleshooting: When A Review Doesn’t Appear
Sometimes a review seems gone or hidden. The causes below are common, along with quick fixes.
| Symptom | Likely Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Review missing from your list | Signed into another account | Check the avatar; switch to the right Google account |
| Review not visible on the place page | Spam or policy filter | Wait; edits can help; avoid links, phone numbers, or copy-paste text |
| Owner can’t see a customer post | Account switch or network delay | Refresh the profile, sort by newest, and check again in a day |
| Owner reply won’t post | Profile not verified | Complete verification, then try again |
| Review posted to a duplicate | Place merge in progress | Wait for the merge to finish; then check again |
| Review removed after posting | Policy breach | Remove contacts, links, or personal data and post again later |
Power Moves For Business Owners
Reply fast, be polite, and sign with a name. Short, specific notes earn trust. Thank happy customers and solve issues in a line or two, then invite a direct message for details.
Simple Reply Lines You Can Adapt
- Positive: “Thanks for the kind words — we’ll share this with the team.”
- Mixed: “Thanks for visiting. We hear you on the wait time and are speeding up checkout.”
- Negative: “Sorry for the trouble. Please message us with a booking code so we can fix this.”
Filters That Save Time
- Sort by newest first to catch fresh posts.
- Filter by stars to find items that need a reply today.
- Set email alerts for new reviews on your account.
Reporting A Review
If a post breaks policy, use the three-dot menu → Report review. If you need a status check after reporting, Google provides a tool in Business Profile Help to track requests.
Ethics And Quality Tips For Posting
Keep reviews honest, first-hand, and free of personal data about staff or other customers. Don’t paste promo codes, phone numbers, or short links. Avoid copy-pasted blocks that look like spam. If you work for the place, skip rating your own employer. Store managers should avoid rewarding posts with gifts or discounts.
Archive And Export Options
If you need a personal archive, you can export data from your Google account with the Takeout tool. Pick the services you want and request a file. Review data may appear with other Maps content in the export. Read the instructions in your Google Account before you start so you select the right services and formats.
Method And Scope
Steps were verified in October 2025 on Android 15, iOS 18, and a desktop browser signed into a personal Google account, plus a test Business Profile. Links point to official help pages that document the same paths and controls.
Advanced Tips On Desktop
When you open the list on a computer, each item links to a place page with your post highlighted. Keep the tab open, then use a new tab for each place so you can jump back to the list without losing your spot. If you remember a phrase you wrote, add it to the site search box like this: site:google.com/maps “your phrase here”. That trick often jumps straight to the place page that holds your text.
Deep Links To A Specific Review
After you click a place, the address bar carries a long link with place and review data. Save that link in a notes app if you plan to reference the post later in an email or a report. These links keep working on mobile as long as the Maps app is installed.
Local Guides Stats
Many accounts show counts for total reviews, photos, and views on the profile page. These numbers refresh over time. If a counter looks off for a day or two, give it time to update. Counts can pause when a place merges or when a policy sweep removes spam across the map.
When You Can’t Sign In Or Your Profile Is Flagged
If you lose access to the account that wrote the review, the content won’t appear under a new login. Try account recovery first, then check the list again. In rare cases, a profile can be limited for spam or abuse. During a limit period you may still see past posts, but new ones might not publish. Once the limit lifts, posting returns to normal.
Working With Teams
Stores with several managers should keep one shared email inbox for alerts to avoid missed posts. Add each manager as a Business Profile owner or manager rather than sharing a password. That setup lets every person reply under the brand while keeping access safe. Use the sort and filter tools so each manager takes a share of the daily replies.
Keyboard And Accessibility Tips
On a laptop, tap the Tab key to move through links and buttons, then press Enter to open the next page. Increase zoom to 110% or 125% if the list feels dense. On a phone, turn on larger text in system settings and the Maps list will adapt. These small changes make long review pages easier to scan.
Quick Steps To Finish Up
- Open Maps → Profile → Reviews to see everything you’ve posted.
- For a business, use Search or the Business dashboard → Reviews to read and reply.
- Edit typos or remove a post with the three-dot menu beside the entry.
- Use profile settings for visibility choices and export data with Takeout if you need a backup.
