Writing for BroadwayWorld, Sarah Jae Leiber acknowledged that "EveryTime I Cry" is "an undisputed summer smash" and an "adrenaline-fueled track", opining that it is "pure electropop perfection".[13] Carolyn Droke of Uproxx considered the song to be "electrifying".[14] The New York Times writer Jon Caramanica positively compared "EveryTime I Cry" to the discography of Dua Lipa.[18] Shaad D'Souza of Paper described the song as an "undeniably uplifting banger" and positively compared it to Max's 2020 song "My Head & My Heart".[11]
