What merchants think

Feedback submitted

Merchants appreciate this app for its real-time customer interaction, user-friendly interface, and easy integration. They find the customer profile and order history features useful for personalizing chats. The "Quick Replies" function, instant answers setup, and the ability to respond via email to missed chats are also favored. Merchants value the option to offer products or discounts during a chat. The app's affordability and supportive customer service are additional benefits.

Shopify inbox is great with seamless integration with Facebook Messenger and Instagram Direct Message, however, customers are not able to send images from the website live chat, which is something essential for customers to be able to send images. Extra options and flexibility shall come to Instant answers, like Check Orders, Edit Orders, Edit Shipping Address.
Track my order also needs some flexibility to be able to change the link from Thank You page to Order Tracking page, which it is the information customers usually looking for. We hope to have Inbox with some great updates very soon. Abdelaal

This app would be a world more useful if you can change the ringtone as the current one is extremely difficult to hear if the phone is in its usual place... my pocket!!!

Hello crkd.guru, Thanks for leaving a review and for the feedback!

Unfortunately, changing the notification sound on a third party app is a limitation of Apple devices. You can universally raise or lower the volume, but not change the sound.

If you ever need any help with Shopify Ping or Apple Business Chat or Shopify Chat, get in touch with our customer service team at ping@shopify.com.

All the best to your future success!

Best regards,

Ruby C.

Thank you very much for this work, but a lot of things are missing:
1. Search in messages (you may suggest connecting an external database like mongodb)
2. Impossible to work with two stores at the same time
3. Often messages are not sent the first time and you need to resend them again and again

The app is light, manageable on different devices, but most of the time it has hiccups or it doesn't work at all. Pity: it could be a real asset!

The app automatically vanishes from the store and then have to download again, can this be fixed?

I've used it. All I get are marketers trying to sale me their services. If there was a way to block those then this app would be great.

Thank you for getting in touch and letting us know that you've come across this issue with spammers. I'm happy to report that as of Shopify Inbox version 6.5.0., merchants can now block conversations within the app. You can use this feature to block any spam messengers you receive messages from.

We appreciate you sharing your feedback with us and I hope you continue to enjoy using Shopify Inbox moving forward. -Victor, Shopify Support

Good free chat. The only problem is that it doesn't support multilanguage translation. We have to choose a main language to display for all customers. Bad for international ecommerce.

Good but we need 2 essential things in order to have the perfect app, the possibility to change the color of the text (and not only have it white) and the possibility to translate the Q&A when a customer choose a different language in the language selector or when the /en in the url is active for exemple.

Hi there, THL Resell. Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review for Inbox, as well as providing us some feedback to improve the app! At this time, it's not possible to change text colour within the app. Are you able to expand on your second piece of feedback a bit more for us? We're happy to pass your feedback along to the team, but we just want to be sure of the request before doing so! Feel free to edit your review to clarify that 2nd piece of feedback for us. Thanks! -Imogen, Shopify Support
