My products are stuck pending approval for weeks. It says 3-5 business days but it's been almost a month and no updates.

Hi Ink Wave Print,
William here from Shopify I recognize that you have had your products in pending status for quite some time however there was an error with the channel that was preventing data from reaching Google. This has now been resolved and you should see your products sync shortly. I'll send you an email to review specific details for your store.

Useless. Does not sync the barcode (GTIN) in product variations. Wasted a lot of time on this. Better to pay something that works.

No support to assist with usage. Immediately got suspended for misrepresentation and upon trying to do the right thing and fix it was ablsolutely upable to get any form of assistance to find what the issue related to. Given up on google and will use other channels instead. Good to know Google like to support small businesses - Not!!! After such a terrible experience I am looking to move all paid services away from Google now.

This App is Pathetic , PLEASE DON'T FALL FOR IT BECAUSE IT IS FREE. i made that mistake. This app will give you NO WAY TO FIX ERRORS , you will have to hire individuals from other sites to correct errors in your feed. PLEASE DO YOURSELF FAVOR and install the "simprosys Feed app" . They give you option to bulk edit and you can add Gender , age , all that with a few Click easily and fix the error .SAVE YOURSELF HEADACHE please don't INSTALL THIS APP TO SET UP YOUR GOOGLE SHOPPING FEED.

You have to rechange the currency and all of that, only to find out that it doesn't even push to countries outside of the US? Okay...

No way to verify a shopify store in Google Merchant Center. Support can't help so we're unable to sell our products with canal Google

Incredibly basic. Learn to use the Googles Ads interface or hire someone. It's amazing that this is the best that Shopify can provide.
