Meh. Not seamless. To many screens before I get to inbox. I don't like frames. Would like to be able to resize frames to my liking.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review and for providing us with feedback on how Shopify Inbox can be improved. I can certainly see the benefits of having more control over frame sizes and I will be sure to pass your comments onto our development team. -Victor, Shopify Support

el icono de chat se superpone encima del botón de compra. me gustaría que el icono de chat se escondiera al momento de que el cliente abra el carrito de compras.

This app has bags of potential, the link with shopify admin is great and beats external apps, living in the infrastructure of the shopify system makes good sense.
The biggest gripe we have is you can't schedule office hours on it - you can do it for responses (after a customer has sent a message it will send something), but we want to do it so it shows us as offline prior to a customer sending a message - it is bad service them writing out a message expecting a reply and then it saying we are offline. Also some customers don't read the offline response and end up sending messages getting frustrated that we aren't replying to them at 3am!
Also, our phones ping through the night and all weekend as customers think we are online for them.
How do we set it to show a customer we are offline initially?

Hi, there. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this great review and valuable feedback. You could always add your office hours by editing your "Away" message under the "Automated Messages" section of the application. Feel free to check out our handy guide here https://bit.ly/2ZDvFAa for a walkthrough on how you can do this. Thanks again for reaching out! -Marty, Shopify Support.

As a free App it is definitely a handy chat feature. I would like more customisable features. E.G When you're using a mobile device and browsing on the website the "Chat with us" Box is way too big and crowds the screen. Also you need the option to close the box as it gets annoying / in the way, in particular on the mobile. I have spoken to Shopify and they said they're working on these upgrades. If Shopify can apply some edits and changes then my rating would improve.

Hey, there. Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review for Shopify Inbox. If you're having issues with getting notifications from Inbox, this is likely due to the app not having the permissions needed to send notifications. Please, access the 'settings' area of your mobile device and then look for 'notifications.' From there, find the Inbox app and select it. There should be a toggle in there for you to turn on notifications for the app. If you've turned them on and still don't receive the notifications, please reach out to our Live Team (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) for some additional support. - Imogen, Shopify Support

It's an okay start, but the browser based functionality is where we need to be.
As it stands, you can't even set a conversation to closed from a browser.
Piping everything thorough a phone app means you're forcing a company to use someone's personal device to monitor messages, rather than having a team take care of it.

Email Notification settings for new chats and new messages for existing chats are very limited. It is easy to miss a new chat or new message from a customer. There are Push notifications available if the iOS/Android app is installed, and there are Desktop notifications you can enable for Chrome, but what this app really needs is an actual Settings feature for Notifications.
