I completely see why people leave low ratings on this app. I just set it up and my account was suspended. When I contacted Shopify, they told me to call Google. I call Google, they ask me for a 10 digit number but I only have a 9 digit number and the automated system deleted me. I am so frustrated with both Shopify and Google honestly!

Hi there,

It's so disappointing that it's hard to believe it's a Google product.
I've tied in with my Google account, but the last step of adding a channel always fails with the message "can't connect youtube channel.
I tried many times in a few days and it still says the same thing.
I've seen people on reddit in the same situation and the problem has not been solved.
There is not even a reason.

Hi,

I'm Cíara from Shopify Support, thanks for leaving your email about the app.

Just so you're aware, for products to be accepted by Google Shopping, it can take 3 - 5 business days for them to be approved, and there's a notice about this in the app. I'm going to follow up with you by email to check what's going on, and see how long your products have been waiting, and get to the bottom of this for you! Keep an eye out for my email in the next little while.

0 customer service. I've spent over 100 000$ in Google Ads this year and getting help, let alone getting a human's help, is simply just not an option for Google. Disgusting way to treat clients. Also, the switch to PMAX from Smart Shopping has crippled E-Com stores.

I Installed the app to try and sync products to my YouTube channel--the products don't ever seems to be approved, there is nothing wrong with them, no support ticket is ever answered, and the products never sync to my YouTube channel--what is wrong with this--Did Shopify change something in Dec. of 2022??

Hi there,
Thank you for your review with the Google channel, my name is William and I'll be assisting you today. I see that you want to have your products sync with YouTube and one of the first things we always check is if you are using a studio account or brand account (brand accounts are not eligible at this time). I'll look into your account and reach out to you for further assistance with your specific circumstances.

If I could 0 star I would.
With stores over 50,000, the app will basically say its not going to happy. Atleast with the original application, you could select a collection to publish to google merchant, now it wants your entire feed. Support has been shocking on the app, I fear could be a downfall of Shopify
