Why did my review count jump in Judge.me?
The Judge.me help pages give 3 common reasons. The first to rule out: Reviews held back and left untouched go live on their own after a set time, so a batch of older reviews can appear together.

How do I check it myself?
Reviews brought in by import never carry Judge.me's buyer confirmation, so if the new reviews do carry it, they did not come from an import.
In the Judge.me help:
Imported reviews won't be verified in Judge.me as they don't provide verification data that meets our standards.

How does Judge.me work with Feder?
- Connect Judge.me to Feder and it joins your Experience apps.
- When you connect Judge.me, Feder checks the connection straight away and shows Connected only when that check passes. If a reading cannot be taken later, Feder shows it as not read, never as zero.
Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.
See whether you can trust the numbers in Judge.me, one of your Experience apps. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in Judge.me.
