Shopify Inbox

I installed this app as I thought it would be great to talk to my customers in real time. However when it pings at me by the time the app opens the conversation the visitor has usually left the store. Its too slow to load the conversation. Very disappointed.

This has been a good validation that we should have chat, and it's great that it's free to help us learn that but there are some significant improvements needed. Pros: easy integration to give it a try, works on mobile (iPhone), the ability to send products is great.

Cons:

- There's no sound/indicator when a new chat comes in unless I have my volume on. I like to keep my phone on vibrate.
- Would like a desktop version available so I don't have to keep an eye on my phone
- Would like to set available hours and/or an "Away" notification
- Would like to capture emails for later response if away. I feel terrible missing a chat and it's very poor form.

It's a good app, my visitors use it a lot. However:
- The size should be customizable. It looks very big on mobile. - There should be an option to add it to the menu instead of having an intrusive bubble on the screen. If that is fixed, it's a 5/5

Not really impressed. Seems to slow site down and when I asked for help to change the Chat with us to Chat with me, I got a canned response that didn't address the issue.

i wish it had a ding when a message comes in so i can respond immediately. It pops up but if i wasn't on phone i wouldn't have known the message came in

L'app ha naturalmente la potenzialità solo per il fatto che è nativa. Ciò che manca però di importante: la possibilità di poter gestire piu store, switchando da un'account all'altro, ricevere i messaggi anche via mail per poter rispondere anche dalle email, e soprattutto la possibilità di cercare tra i messaggi (se ne hai per esempio anche solo 1000 diventa impossibile risalire). Le notifiche non hanno sempre un feedback push, la latenza è un problema per un'assistenza live.

I have multiple stores and they App only works with one store login? will they upgrade so you can use it on many stores?

So sosish app. On the plus side it's easy to use and integrate with Shopify. On the other hand, desktop version is pretty crappy (crashes frequently) and does not have basic things like a search function.

The widget is not optimized for Safari browser. Almost on all iPhones and MacBooks using Safari browser the white chat widget is not centered. And when opening it in Safari browser MacBook, after refreshing the page, the widget never shows up.

Really needs voice or video connection to the customer for better customer service.
