365 Review Period not updated

I’ve had two 4 star reviews in 2020. One was July 25-26, 2020. The system updated on July 30, but still shows 2 reviews under 5. Does anyone know how long it takes to drop off? I thought it was 365 days.

@Emilia42 There you go, that makes sense. I have to wonder why someone would bother, unless they were super low, trying to remove a retaliatory 1 star. All it takes is one guest who raves about their stay with 5 in every category and then leaves a 4 overall, to knock you down again. To each their own though.

@Jillian115Your questions can also be totally independent of the host. It could be that travel is down and while 45% of travelers looked to Airbnb last week to book a stay (more views everywhere,) only 30% searched for an Airbnb this week.

I have noticed that it feels like most of my bookings happen on a Sunday. I could have no new bookings all week and then on Sunday, I get 5. Most of the time. It is because Airbnb is hiding my listing during the week? or because most travelers are sitting down to make a reservation on their day off after they've had a chance to discuss with their travel partner at dinner? Only Airbnb has the data to decipher these patterns but I think a lot of it has little to do with the actual host.
