Would You Install an App Without any Review
If you're about to download a new app or website, you may be prepared for what it will do for you, but are you prepared for what it will do to your device? How much storage will it take up? Will it clash with other apps or websites on your device, causing it to crash? Just because an app or website is popular doesn't mean it's the best one for your device—and if you review its features and requirements before you install it, you'll have the information at your fingertips to make the right decision.
It's always wise to know what you're getting into before you commit.
When you read reviews of apps and websites, it gives you a chance to find out what others' experiences have been like before you make the choice to use them. That way, you avoid wasting your time on something that might not be what you're looking for or may have downsides that are important for you to know about beforehand.
You can also see if the app or website is well-regarded by a wide audience, or if it has only been popular with other people who share your specific interests. And if there isn't enough information available to help you decide, then you'll know that it might not be worth your time to download or visit the site.
