Went to Google Play to complain about Hulu. I noticed Google advertising that over 300 reviews had the verbatim quote “watch and movies that you love”. It’s always confusing that buggy corporate apps have >95% 5 star reviews until you see that the majority are just completely fake, and no one cares or is doing anything about it.

    There are people who are hired specifically to pad reviews. They’re easy to spot though. Every 5 star review reads exactly the same even if it’s different wording.

    “This app changed my life!”

    “I was looking for so long to have an app like this so I’m happy this app exists!”

    “This app is so easy to use and install, I don’t understand why people are complaining about it”

    If you want true honesty, read some of the 3 star reviews and below.
