Overview

The App Store integration automatically analyzes your iOS app reviews to surface common issues, feature requests, and user sentiment. Squad’s AI identifies patterns across thousands of reviews, helping you prioritize what matters most to your users.

Benefits

Discover hidden patterns: Squad’s AI clusters similar feedback across reviews, revealing issues that individual reviews might not make obvious. Focus on what’s actionable: Squad categorizes reviews into Feature Requests, Bug Reports, Praise, and General Feedback, then surfaces actionable opportunities that align with your goals. Prioritize by impact: See which issues affect the most users and correlate review themes with your app ratings.
