Can we use Google Places API to create a review system ? Like using their API to retrieve information about that place, then storing the Key and Review in a database. Will that be possible, because Google terms and conditions are not straight forward.
If not Google, what is the best approach to develop this. Thanks !
The Google Places API does not currently return the reviews associated with requested places. There is however a Feature Request for this here, if you believe that returning reviews in a request response would be a useful feature please star the issue to increase its priority and to be notified of future changes.
As per the Google Maps Terms of Service Section 10.1.3 (b)
The only exception to this is storage of content identifier or reference key for the purpose of improving application performance.
