Biggest opportunity: “review slider”, “reviews” and “star ratings” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active

At least 1K of 14.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,317 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Media plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

    The free version has 200 views and the paid version has 5000 views, which is very little and you need more than 1000 dollars a year to keep this functionality active. I think it’s just a waste of money, hopefully the company will change the limits and do better.

    I’ve tried multiple services for getting my Google Reviews on my site but it always fails when I try to install the codes and whatnot. This on the other hand was so simple, i just connected the app and all my widgets were on WordPress and I got them installed with like two clicks. Can’t complain
