Add a Samsung app to your account

Commencing January 2024, the BETA version has been extended with the Reply to reviews functionality. If you have any suggestions about the Samsung Galaxy Store features, please feel free to submit them to our Productboard here.
- Replies are published immediately, within several minutes.
- Reviews are collected several times in an hour.
If there are reviews in the Galaxy Store and on your Samsung Seller portal but there are no reviews on AppFollow please contact our Support Team.
Why are we requesting additional permissions?
Sometimes, there's a discrepancy between the App Content ID shown in our console and the App Content ID displayed on public pages.
This discrepancy arises due to a bug on the Samsung seller portal & Samsung Public page - The correct content ID for the app is found on the Samsung seller Portal and the wrong one is on the Samsung Public page.
As a consequence, when you grant access to one app, a different one gets added to the AppFollow account. This mismatch prevents us from establishing the connection needed to collect reviews effectively.
To address this issue, you might encounter a setup connect modal window requesting additional permissions. These permissions go beyond the usual "buyer comment manager" and include "applications manager."
This will enable us to view the apps and verify the Content ID ourselves, facilitating the setup of the connection.
