What is this?
Our service tweets a random listing from your shop according to your schedule, so you can focus on your core business.
After any period of time, you can request a tracking report to see how much traffic those autotweets generate for your shop.
In your settings, you are able to finetune hashtags, schedule, categories, analytics and more. When you are satisfied with the results, you’ll never have to worry about tweeting again.
How does it work?
Simple: after you authorize our app on both Shopify and Twitter, we
periodically retrieve a random listing from your shop and tweet it to
the world. You have full control over the schedule.
What results should I expect?
Our users have reported up to 35% more views per product, and those stats are an important metric for your conversion rate. Thanks to Bit.ly integration, you have full control over your stats. Measure all the things!
Autotweets work their way to your audience around the clock. You can try the service for one month with no commitment. If you like it and want to continue after your free trial, you can subscribe to the service with a basic monthly plan of 4.99$.
Autotweet reviews (4)
3rd review now posted from the Philippines on January 24, 2016: now it has posted 2 auto-tweets in the past 60+ minutes in the "hourly posting program" right at the 5 minutes after the hour mark like it's supposed to do as advertised. I'm pretty satisfied now if it continues this way, and I see no reason now why it shouldn't continue this way. But it was kind of a rough start, so I'll give it an upgraded 4 out of 5.
************************************************************
Update several days after INITIAL review below, today's date is January 23, 2016:
I live in the Philippines. I'm an American citizen. I use dozens of Shopify apps, free and paid, and none of them give me any loading problems whatsoever. And yet most of the time this software just won't properly load for me. This has been the case for several days.
I've been in contact with the developer and he's working with me on this. Today the software loaded promptly for me. He's supposed to be helping me with other stuff too. So I've cautiously doubled my previous 1 rating to a 2. Hope to raise the rating to someplace between 3 and 5 once I actually see the software performing and putting out tweets automatically.

*******Want to try the product out, use it, review and see if I wish to continue with it. If it does what it says it does, I really, really need it! Hoping the company will contact me about this and then I'll update my review and/r rating here.
9/7/2015 Update. I am thrilled to share that Shopi-Fu now works with Shopify's Smart Collections! Hooray! Daniel was super nice and once he learned of the problem it was fixed in a few days. This app now works very well and is a must. Builds your brand's presence on Twitter and gives you tools to do it automatically without looking like a bot. Since it has been working properly it has increased Twitter traffic to our shop. Thank You!!!

9/2/2015Tried this app back in April. Then realized that you can't choose which Collections to use, that feature doesn't work for Shopify. We sell one of a kind, we don't want to tweet sold out products. Nothing would annoy a potential customer more than that.
Contacted developer then who took a whole week but replied and told me it would be updated, problem corrected and relaunched. When I saw the app with a different name after all these months, I got it again. By then my trial had expired and since it works so well on our Etsy shop I went ahead and paid for 3 months. Silly me, the thing is still broken.
I have emailed the developer 4 times in over 2 weeks and not a single reply.All I am trying to do is to see if my install needs to be updated and if I still can't choose which collections to tweet from, if I could transfer my payment to our Etsy shop.
Terrible customer service, actually, no customer service even though they will gladly take your money.
Maybe this will get some attention and the issue will be resolved. I like the app very much, just want it to do what it says it does and be fully functional.
If I can get this resolved I may update this review. It's a shame really, works so well on Etsy but not on Shopify.
Brilliant app! Saved me tons of time and I have seen a huge increase in traffic from Twitter.
Really great app, mine is set to Tweet every hour with a product and I've seen an increase in interest and visitors. A few things I would want though to make me subscribe to the service after the 30 day free period -
More Hash tags! I need to add more to my products - 2 is not enough.
A customizable section that I can add to the beginning of each tweet such as my store name or a simple 'Just arrived!' type comment.
It's a new app and a great starting point - just needs a bit of polish and it will probably be one of the best out there.
