I don't know what the Devs did but this app is currently useless. Not only do new customers not get an email or a download link, but OLD customers lost access to their previous download links on their Order Status Page. This app literally does nothing now.
Don't hope for a good experience with this app. The 1 star reviews tell you everything you need to know, and stay clear! This app will not display a download link on the order confirmation page. Only an email will be sent. So many horror stories. Look elsewhere.
This app was coded in the middle ages and haven't been updated since! Here are 2 critical issues:
- It is not compatible with the new customer account, there is no way for your client to download the files they purchased from the Order page.
- You cannot HTML markup the email templates for Download Ready and for Updated Product, all you're left with is some crude text that looks like a badly formatted spam email
Digital Downloads app devs, are you still alive?
Terrible doesn't allow me to upload the files successfully i keep getting message saying try again later.
Shopify community doesn't even bother to help either. I'm paying $20 per month for nothing.
The good point is it's using Shopify domain to send emails, which has a good reputation and avoid your download emails to end in the junk.
The other good thing is the fact that your files are hosted on the Shopify server and you have a use limitation per download (5gb).
On the other end, the app needs some necessary improvement : a file manager to avoid duplicates, fix the download on purchase page...
This app is complete balls, customers cant even login to view their product so if the initial email is lost the product is lost. complete shite just use sky pilot if ur strapped for cash.
Very easy to install and implement. I did it in under 5 minutes for my eBook. Did a test purchase and the email was automatically sent to me with the correct download link. No complaints so far -- I guess they fixed the update bug by now. Thank you Shopify!
Absolutely dreadful, do not use. It has been generating all kinds of bogus emails to my customers. Very embarrassing.
I really wanted to use this app. But I am having to delete it. I'm leaving this review as a warning to others. This app does not have a download link on Thank you page. I contacted support and they said it was a known issue with no date on a fix. They advised me to find another digital downloads app to use. So there you are folks. Best to find another app to use.
It's simply an insult to Shopify customers that in 2024 there is no native, properly functioning digital download app. Links do not appear after purchase and there is no link to download again in the client panel. looking for another solution.
Hey there, thanks for the review. I can certainly see the benefit of Shopify having a native function for digital products without the use of an application. I am going to provide the feedback to our developers as a suggestion. We appreciate you taking the time to bring this to our attention. -Ollie, Shopify Support
