used for ages but very glitchy and big files are nearly impossible to upload

I've used this app for almost ten years, and although it's not perfect, it does the job of sending my customers links to their purchased PDF patterns, and it's free.

I would LOVE it if the files you uploaded were marked with a date!

I would LOVE it if customer email addresses were synchronized with the address they use and updated in Shopify.
Finally, the customers who have canceled a purchase or have received a refund don't get a new link sent if the file is updated.

Finally, a hosted version of the app would be amazing. I wouldn't mind paying for one, so I wouldn't have to manually send people new links to their PDFs.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review and I'm glad to hear that you've gotten good use out of the Digital Downloads app over the last ten years. The feedback you've provided us on how we can improve the app is appreciated and I'll be sure to pass this onto our app development team. -Victor, Shopify Support

Doesn't actually send the product when it says it does. Not a good app.

It just doesn't work. I'm lucky a customer messaged me personally to let me know they weren't receiving their downloads because the app automatically archives orders and claims to have delivered the digital product, even when it hasn't.

DO NOT get this app. Shopify is no longer supporting it and this is a quote from a tech support rep: the current app is in maintenance mode, meaning that developers are only investing resources into resolving "critical security fixes or widespread bugs". After using it for four years I can no longer upload files.

I have been using your application since November of last year, and everything has been running smoothly. However, since the latest Shopify update, I have encountered a problem.

When a customer places an order, they no longer see the download link on the page, even though I have it activated in the settings. This issue only started occurring after the recent update.

I would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue. By the way, I want to mention that the application is otherwise very, very good.

Shocking app, very poor from Shopify considering the high monthly fees we pay. Does not allow you to add branding to the email that sends the download, so it looks like spam and builds a distrust with your customers

Hi, there! Thank you for your review. I understand how being able to add your branding to the Digital Downloads email would be beneficial for your business, so I have shared your feedback with our developers. I can't guarantee the change will be implemented, but if it is, an update will be posted to the Shopify Changelog (https://shopify.link/N5vR). Thanks again for your feedback! - Greta, Shopify Support
