Built for Shopify apps are reviewed annually to ensure they continue to adhere to all [Built for Shopify criteria](/docs/apps/launch/built-for-shopify/achievement-criteria).

## When to expect a review

Your app will be added to the annual review queue about one year from its initial approval. You can expect reviews at around the same time each year.

## Review notifications

You’ll get an email notification when your annual review starts. The Partner Dashboard will also indicate that your app is in review.

## How long it takes

In general, it takes between a few days and a week to complete an annual review. This includes time spent in the review queue and the review itself.

## Getting your results

After the Built for Shopify reviewers have completed their review, you’ll get an email explaining the outcome.

## Successful reviews

If the review doesn’t find any issues with your app, then no further action is needed. Congratulations, your app is certified for another year!

## Failed reviews

If reviewers find issues with any new or existing criteria, then you’ll receive an email outlining those issues so you can fix them and resubmit your app.

You have 60 days to fix any issues raised in the review and resubmit. Your app keeps its Built for Shopify status during the grace period.

If you don’t complete the required fixes and resubmit your app by the end of 60 days, then your app will have its Built for Shopify status removed. You can [re-apply for Built for Shopify status](/docs/apps/launch/built-for-shopify/regain-lost-status) at any time.
