Overview
- Review‑text search began rolling out in the Play Store on Monday, giving Android users a faster way to find specific feedback in app reviews.
- Users can open an app’s ratings, tap See all reviews, or hit the magnifying‑glass in the Reviews section to search for words mentioned in reviews.
- Early behavior is limited because queries must include at least two words, results match only exact terms, and nothing updates as you type.
- Availability varies by device as staged updates arrive with Play Store version 50.7.24-31, which users can check under Settings > About > Update Play Store.
- The rollout coincides with the removal of the “this device model” filter and a move of “latest version” to a top chip, with no formal announcement from Google.
