Shipped my first production app to the Play Store a few months back (business ledger app for small businesses). Now I've hit this annoying routine — every morning I open Play Console just to check if any new reviews came in, especially the 1-star ones I need to reply to fast.

Feels dumb doing this manually every day. Curious what everyone else does:

Do you just check Play Console / App Store Connect manually?

Any tools you use for review alerts? Worth paying for?

How fast do you usually respond to negative reviews?

Mostly asking because I almost missed a 1-star review about a payment bug for 4 days and it tanked my rating. Want to know if there's a better workflow before I build some janky script myself.

I check Play Console manually every morning for new reviews and it's getting old. Almost missed a 1-star about a critical bug for 4 days.

What's your workflow? Manual checks, some tool, or a custom script? And if you use a tool what do you pay for it?

What's a completely normal thing that instantly annoys you for no reason?

I'll start: when someone says "I'll be there in 5 minutes" and shows up 45 minutes later. 😭 Curious to know everyone else's irrational annoyances
