Reviews: Replay AI Summary typing animation on every page load

By default, the typing animation in the AI Summary of the Reviews widgets plays only once — when a visitor sees it for the first time.

If they refresh the page or navigate to another page with the same widget, the AI Summary appears instantly without replaying the animation.

If you’d like the typing effect to run every time the widget loads, add the following script to the Custom JS field on the Settings tab of your widget:

localStorage.removeItem('Reviews.elfsight-has-played-ai-summary-animation.WIDGET-ID');

Make sure to replace WIDGET-ID with the actual ID of your widget.

Once added, the widget will clear the saved animation state on every load, so the AI Summary typing animation will play again each time the page is opened or refreshed.
