FAQ

Google review calculator questions, answered.

Google shows the average of all your star ratings, rounded to one decimal place. Reviews Google filters or removes don’t count.

Only if every review is 5 stars. Once you have any lower rating, your average can get very close to 5.0 but never quite reach it.

Google may hold back new reviews for a short time, filter some, or round slightly differently. Treat the result as a close estimate.

Yes. No sign-up, no card and no limits.

Never. None of our tools ask for a password, and nobody from Omni Ratings ever will.
