That app has gone from average to bad. This is because recent updates make the bulk editor unusable if you have more than 1500 products.
You cannot change the width of the columns, cannot filter and if the webpage times out you have to start from page one again. I have 162 pages of products so this is very frustrating. As such I am forced to pay money for a 3rd party app ( I am using 'Feed For Google Shopping'
by Simprosys InfoMedia) so I don't waste or lose money with my google shopping campaign.
I have advised Shopify Support of my issues and they said it was a caching issue with my browser...

Great idea. Very bad execution. It was not clear that starting a new Google Shopping Campaign will OVER-RIDE your existing shopping campaign. For 2 weeks our TOP performing shopping campaign was not delivering because this APP prevented it.

This APP NEEDS A LOT of improvement for shopify store owners. It might be great for some that don't have the slightest clue of how to get started with Google Shopping Ads but I can tell you first hand this APP leaves a lot to be desired. For one you are unable to set any sort of Target ROAS. You are unable to run any bid adjustments on specific devices and the conversion reporting is questionable.

If you want to know why this APP has ONLY 1 STAR install it and find out for your self.

Unfortunately, like many other people here who is complaining about their wasted time and energy... I feel the same and so I give up. Shopify gurus cannot help much either! It's hard as well to gamble with money placing ads ($5 a day for 30 days!) without seeing how the ads really looks like if I click publish when making a campaign. Why they don't make this easier for us? since we are going to pay for the ads anyway.

after 4 days, no sales, and a bill of $229.00 from google.. only 65 clicks, after spending about 9 hours on this total.. 8 of those hours was wondering how to control cpc which is apparently impossible.. this tool will bankrupt you before you even know it

the old app was horrible, but it worked at least and we were spending $5 a day for 5-10 sales a day.

Hey there, Spencer here from Shopify. Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your experience. The Google Channel is designed to automatically update any product that gets changed, so there should be no need for you to instigate that. I'll be sending an email out to you shortly so that we can dig into this deeper for you. Spencer | Shopify

Horrible. Impossible to connect to Youtube Channels. Complete waste of time. Do not bother installing.

Same story, all of our products are rejected by Google with no explanation. We surmised it was due to their being no UPC or GTIN codes, which is true. But we were also told we could override that by identifying our merchandise as custom. Don't see any way of doing that. If I could rate it zero stars, I would. Shame on Shopify for not correcting this for all of us.

This app is one huge money loser and waste of time. I'd give it zero stars if I could. Every two weeks your products start to expire until they are all expired because Shopify is unable to fix this app. It's obvious when it happens because your sales slow dramatically. It takes days for Shopify support to get back to you, another 2 days for the feed to upload completely again. Each time you contact them they give you some big excuse or explanation about how the app has been fixed. Two weeks later the same thing happens. I find this app just a larger reflection of Shopify now. Competitors are far better. All they care about is making money for themselves at the expense of its customers. I'm really, really fed up with this.
