Review to image generator

Paste a review a customer actually left you, choose where it was posted, and download an image sized for a post, a story or a banner.

How to turn a review into an image

  1. Open the review where it was posted, on Google, Yelp, Trustpilot or your store, and paste the text into Review content without rewording it.
  2. Enter the reviewer's name. Add their job title and photo only if they said you can.
  3. Choose the site the review came from and the star score the customer gave.
  4. Pick square for feed posts, stories for Instagram and Facebook stories, or landscape for website banners and emails, then a light or dark card and a background.
  5. Download the PNG and post it.

Only share reviews customers really wrote

A review image works because people read it as something a real customer said. Once a visitor spots an invented one, they stop trusting the real ones next to it. It is also illegal in a lot of places: since October 2024 the US Federal Trade Commission can fine businesses for fake or AI-written reviews and testimonials, and EU consumer law has banned fake reviews since 2022.

A few rules keep a review image honest:

  • Use the customer's own words. Fix nothing beyond an obvious typo.
  • Show the rating they gave. A 4-star review is still worth sharing.
  • Only use a site's logo for a review that was posted on that site.
  • Ask before using a full name or photo, or shorten the name to a first name and initial.
  • Where you can, link the image to the original review so anyone can check it.

Where review images get noticed

On Instagram and Facebook a square card fits the feed and the tall format fits stories, where a single strong quote reads faster than a paragraph. On your website, put one next to the buy or sign-up button, where a visitor is deciding. In email, put a landscape card under the main message. It shows up even in email clients that strip styled HTML.

Pick short reviews that name something specific, such as a delivery time, a result or a problem that got fixed. "Arrived in two days and fit perfectly" persuades more people than "Great service!".

Get more reviews worth sharing

The easiest way to have good reviews to post is to ask more customers for one. The Google review link generator gives you a short link that opens the review form directly, and the Shopify app review link generator does the same for app listings. To show reviews on your site automatically instead of posting images one at a time, ProveSource review popups pull in real reviews from Google, Facebook, Trustpilot and other sites and display them to visitors as they browse.

Questions about the review to image generator

Is the review to image generator free?
Yes. Fill in the review, pick a layout and download the PNG. Nothing to install, and the image carries only a small Made with Shapo label in the corner.
Can I use it to make a fake review?
No. Publishing a review that no customer wrote is deceptive advertising. In the US the FTC's rule on consumer reviews and testimonials (16 CFR Part 465, in effect since October 21, 2024) prohibits it, including reviews written by AI or attributed to people who never used the product, and the EU's consumer protection rules ban it as well. Use this tool for reviews you can link back to.
Which review sites can I show as the source?
Google, Yelp, Trustpilot, Facebook, Amazon, Etsy, Shopify, Judge.me, Capterra, G2, Airbnb, the App Store, Google Play and 18 more. Pick the site where the review was actually posted, or turn the source icon off.
Do I need permission to use a customer's name and photo?
Ask first. A public review is visible to anyone, but putting someone's name and face into your marketing is a different use. If you can't ask, use their first name and last initial and leave the photo out.
What size is the downloaded image?
It downloads as a high-resolution PNG in the layout you picked: square for feed posts, a tall stories format for Instagram and Facebook stories, or landscape for website banners and email.
Can I shorten a long review?
Trim it only if the meaning stays the same, and mark the cut with an ellipsis. Don't combine sentences from different reviews or change a complaint into praise.
