Switch from Ali Reviews to Eevy AI

Your AliExpress reviews got you started — now let AI optimize how they display to maximize conversions.

Estimated time: 15-20 minutes

Why Switch from Ali Reviews?

Ali Reviews (by FireApps) is one of the most popular AliExpress review importers, used heavily by dropshipping and print-on-demand stores. It handles bulk importing well and offers popup and carousel display options. But once reviews are on the page, the display is static and the same for every visitor.

Eevy AI takes those same imported reviews and makes the display layer intelligent. The genetic algorithm tests which reviews to highlight, how to arrange photos, where to place star summaries, and what visual format converts best. Dropshipping stores often have hundreds of imported reviews — Eevy AI ensures those reviews are working as hard as possible to drive purchases.

Migration Steps

1

Export reviews from Ali Reviews

In the Ali Reviews app, go to Manage Reviews > Export. Download the full CSV file containing all reviews, ratings, photos, and product associations.

2

Save review photos

Ali Reviews photo URLs may reference AliExpress CDN or their own hosting. Download photos from the export URLs to ensure they remain accessible after migration.

3

Install Eevy AI

Install Eevy AI from the Shopify App Store. Complete the onboarding wizard.

4

Import reviews into Eevy AI

Upload the Ali Reviews CSV in Eevy AI under Settings > Import Reviews. The importer recognizes Ali Reviews field formats. Upload downloaded photos if original URLs are no longer accessible.

5

Remove Ali Reviews widgets

In the Shopify theme editor, remove Ali Reviews widgets: review displays, star badges, popups, and carousel elements.

6

Deploy Eevy AI sections

Add Eevy AI app blocks to product pages. Set your optimization goal and the genetic algorithm starts testing layout variations with your imported reviews.

7

Uninstall Ali Reviews

After confirming all reviews display correctly, uninstall Ali Reviews from Shopify admin.
