How to Edit or Delete a Google Review You Wrote

Quick Answer: How to Edit or Delete a Google Review

Only the Google account that posted a review can change it. Your Google Maps profile lists the reviews you've written, and each one has a More button with Edit review and Delete review inside.

  • Android, iPhone or iPad: open the Google Maps app, tap Contribute > View your profile, scroll and tap See all reviews, then tap More next to the review and choose Edit review or Delete review.
  • Computer: open Google Maps, click Menu (☰) at the top left, then Your contributions > Reviews. Click More next to the review and choose Edit review or Delete review.
  • What you can change: the text, the star rating and the photos you added.
  • After an edit: the review shows the date of your last edit as its post date.
  • After a delete: the review and its star rating come off the business's profile and off yours.
  • Someone else's review: you can't edit or delete it, even when it's about your own business. You can report it to Google instead (see options for business owners). To read and reply to the reviews of your own business, see how to see the Google reviews of your business.
