the app is terrible. it does not update all fields correctly, google is threatening to suspend our account because pricing and GTIN are not being updated. we tried to push our own manual feed, but this can't be a solution, as the APP should automate and send the information correctly to Google. It is literally built by Google and Shopify. How difficult is it to make it work correctly and send all of the information?

App is causing major issues when adding new products on shopify. The new products are not being picked up correctly by the app. Only by chance I spotted the issue in the bulk editor (which is a nightmare). I raised a support call with Shopify only to be told it is a google issue and speak to them. Poor show from Shopify. I will be selecting a paid app to manage the interface and may move away from Shopify if the situation does not improve. Please help rather than brush me off.

This is a HORRENDOUS app. Do NOT get it. I have tried repeatedly to get to run and NOTHING. This app is NOT worth the time wasted.

Does Not Work...Has Not Worked For Years...How there are so many good reviews is beyond me! Only reason I looked at trying again, but I can see that most people have the same issues I have. This should be a number one priority or so you would think!
Please don't respond from Shopify telling me that you are going to look into this, just do something!

I am experiencing some of the same issues that other people/companies are having. I keep getting GTN error on a lot of products. I also am experiencing missing inventory data issues. I don not know what that means or how to fix it. I am thinking about removing this app. My sales have dropped since this past May.

Useless product, doesn't do anything nor allows to publish your products on to google... It could have been very helpful if it worked though, what a shame!

This problem with the GTIN's not being submitted is horrendous! It's affecting multiple of our shopify stores. Seems like it's been an issue for MONTHS and neither shopify or google are doing anything to fix the issue, leaving merchants to scramble for slow and problematic workarounds! Absolutely horrendous.

What a nightmare to use for everyday folks. This app and Google has a long way to go. Google seriously needs to work on support and correcting their own errors before offering so many services. I've been trying to get this set up correctly for what seems like 3 years now. So many errors and such a royal pain to use.
