Complete nightmare using this thing for me. I have been with Shopify for over 6 years. Started online only and then when we opened our little local retails shop and tried to integrate with Google Business Profile and thus Google & YouTube and Ads etc. The entire experience to date has been wretched. Everything always in a loop screwing up, randomly changing data of all kinds from missing price to adult labels on benign things, to missing price, shipping, added attributes I don't want - on and on - and we sell a nominal amount of one of a kind products - art antiques & namely. Extremely poor help from Google and Shopify keeps sending the blame to Google. I am beside myself with fury on this as it is affecting in great ways our local reputation and our ability to take advantage of the free listings and such. It is like a Gremlin outside of our 2 person show is screwing it all up every few days so I can never get it going right only wrong almost all of the time. Horrible and horrible support. I am in CANADA btw. We sell internationally and locally.
So wrong to have such stupid problems with Google.

Hi, sorry you're still having issues. I see that our support agent has already responded to your ticket and at least some of these issues are now fixed. If you are having shipping disapprovals, make sure your Shipping Sync settings are configured in the App as you expect. "Automatic" will allow the app to pull your Shopify configured rates into Google, while "Manual" means you will set it up yourself in Merchant Center and the app won't copy any shipping over for you.
When we see data attributes coming and going, the issue is often multiple data sources trying to update your products in Google. The app is handling a lot of the product sync logic already for you, so you may want to check and see if you have any other third party product handlers also trying to sync products. When the app and your other third party are both turned on, they may cause data conflicts, or "data flipflopping" back and forth seemingly randomly. This is because the app is telling Google some product information, then your other third party also tries to tell Google something slightly different on the same product, and you'll see Google's data go back and forth, like a gremlin.
Hopefully this helps, and if not, feel free to write back in on your existing case, but the Shipping settings and second product sync service seem to be most of the issues you had last month.

This app is terrible. No matter what I do I get errors trying to connect to my store. I've ended up deleting my entire merch account and starting from scratch. After all that work, and after reinstalling everything I'm getting the same error. In shopify it says someone else has my domain. When I click to transfer it, then I get errors in merch center. This app is garbage.

Hi - it looks like you connected your account yesterday morning to Google Merchant Center through the App. This may have been the new Merchant Center account you set up, but the website and domain are claimed properly right now. If you're having another issue with connecting, please reach out to us using Get Support in the app, or submitting directly at https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app

The agents standing by will be able to assist you faster and better than I can since they'll have all your account information and can reply privately to your question.

An absolute nightmare to use. The support system feels like you're communicating with an AI, with little real assistance. Suddenly, half of my products were disapproved without explanation. I’ve been raising the issue for months, only to receive the same repetitive responses, claiming they'll inspect the matter and escalate it to the 'professional team.' No real resolution in sight.

Hi Waku Waku, it looks like our support team was actually able to unblock your account and your Local Inventory program last month. We've actually improved the local store settings since then to both make clearer how to link local stores and what mismatch we seem to have. Your store seems to be working now since two weeks ago. Thanks for reporting the issue to us and allowing our experts to identify your issues and unblock you, as well as letting us know what issues you and other merchants were running into in this process. We hope with the updated information on Local Inventory you and other merchants will be able to fix the issue without needing additional case escalations. I'm sorry your experience started out difficult, but I hope that our support team solving your issue might positively affect your experience going forward.

Richtig krampfhaft diese App einzurichten! Ständig fehlen irgendwelche Daten. Selbst wenn ich meine eigene Adresse hinzufügen will, findet er es als "lokale Adresse" nicht.
Ohne diese Funktion werden meine Produke von Shopify nicht sychronisiert!
Total nutzlos und zeitraubend!

Hi, it seems like you're only having an issue with the Local Ads aspect of the app. Your products for Online destinations are syncing properly, and have been for a few weeks. If you want to enable your products for Local Advertising, you'll want to make sure your local store addresses match your Google Business Profile settings. Give us a message if you can't sort this out, and hopefully you'll update your review since your products have been syncing properly already.

Hallo, es scheint, als hätten Sie nur ein Problem mit dem lokalen Anzeigenaspekt der App. Ihre Produkte für Online-Ziele werden ordnungsgemäß synchronisiert, und das schon seit einigen Wochen. Wenn Sie für Ihre Produkte lokale Werbung aktivieren möchten, müssen Sie sicherstellen, dass die Adressen Ihrer lokalen Geschäfte mit den Einstellungen Ihres Google-Unternehmensprofils übereinstimmen. Geben Sie uns eine Nachricht, wenn Sie das Problem nicht lösen können. Wir hoffen, dass Sie Ihre Bewertung aktualisieren, da Ihre Produkte bereits ordnungsgemäß synchronisiert wurden.

Most pathetic. They have flagged my site as misrepresented. I’ve checked, rechecked and raised queries with them. They have generic answers and have zero merchant support. I’ve wasted a whole week on this pathetic no good app

The support system is very limited. Theres no any direct contact to google. All the time you have to fill up the submission. I have been trying to contact google for so long for the suspension in my account but they don't get back to me at all. I tried everything to contact them but im tired of trying to contact them and wasting too much time on the phone and then on the web form.

Ever since we moved to the new checkout experience and had to move from scripts to pixels, it never works properly. The pixel under 'customer events' just keeps getting disconnected even though in the app everything says that its connected properly. No response from support yet.

Hello! Thanks for your feedback. The pixel feature is not yet live, though we expect to start rolling it out soon. Unfortunately this may be confusing since the setting does display as disconnected right now, but it should not be affecting the functionality in any way -- simply by using this app, you should see your data flow through as expected, even through the new checkout experience. Once the feature goes live, you'll see this option become connected!
If you're having any issues, please add to your existing support case with the discrepancies you are seeing, but rest assured this pixel setting is coming soon!

Stays disconnected from Shopify's customer events no matter what. Shopify support claim they can't do anything about it and neither can Google

The Shopify shopping ribbon, which is intended to show products from my store in the description of my YouTube videos, did not work/appear on my latest YouTube video upload. It worked/appeared on legacy videos, but not on newly uploaded videos. When I contacted support about this, they couldn't tell me why this was happening, nor did they address my concern. They basically said "sometimes this feature will be available in videos, sometimes it won't be - it's random." If that's the case, this is not something I can direct my customers to use.

I installed it, then it says my products contain sexual content. The product It was complaining about was a broom handle. Next it said another product contains alcohol that product is a potentiometer dial uses for electronic devices. Again, selling hotwheel toy cars flagged as contraband and marijuana. These 3 product are my main sellers and the descriptions, title and images do not contain anything related to what google thinks these products are. I did submit review, I guess its ran by AI that can't tell the difference.

Its a worthless plugin, don't waste your time. I can list my items on ebay (more expensive) and in turn ebay can push them into google searches without problems.

Hi there! I don't see any products with these policy issues on them currently. In fact, all of these issues were cleared up within the next hour of you submitting the initial product feed. Sometimes certain products do get flagged incorrectly either due to the image or product attributes, but will either clear up with a subsequent review (in your case, it was cleared up within the hour) or by clicking "I disagree with this decision" on the product to request a manual rereview.
If you still have these issues and are unsure why, you may get a quicker response by submitting a ticket via Get Support on the app, or visiting https://support.google.com/merchants/contact/shopify_3p_support_app. We have agents standing by to help with questions like this.
