What merchants think

Feedback submitted

Merchants appreciate this app for enhancing real-time customer communication, leading to improved service and increased sales. They value its seamless Shopify integration, mobile functionality, and direct chat product links. The Quick Replies and automated responses are praised for saving time. However, some merchants seek more customization, advanced features like AI integration, proactive messaging, and improved reporting. The app's reliability and Shopify's support are highly valued.

Kind of a great app. It just lacks customization to make it more branded, and also the customization to hide it on some website pages. Would be great for messages coming from IG if we could see their profile picture and a quick link to access they profile, so we don't confuse different users.

Hi there! I can appreciate why having greater control of where the chat box appears, and why having more customization of branding would be helpful, so I will be sure to submit your suggestions to our development team. Thank you for taking the time to write your review and provide your suggestions, and I'm glad to hear that you've enjoyed using the app thus far! -Victor, Shopify Support

Overall good and super simple to use, but could be improved. Please add a way to research conversations by name/order number. Another useful feature would be the ability to tag customers with custom-tags.

I used this app to provide real time customer care. I love when it shows the customer's email and order number that the request pertains to as well as the showing of the customer's current cart items. It will be even better if I can paste screenshots directly in the message box instead of needing to make it a file then attach. Also if I can 'like or love' the customer's message directly as if in the actual chat program, that would be great.

Una app super útil, sencilla de usar y con la interfaz bastante amigable. La verdad que es muy práctica. Lo que le falta para 5 estrellas es integrar más canales de contacto para poder centralizar las consultas (whatsapp, google, facebook, instagram...).

Works great. It would be nice if there was a search function to easily search through existing and old messages.

Chat is good but no way to turn off chat and just display FAQ after office hours. It would be perfect with that feature

Thank you for writing your review and for sharing your feedback with us here.

I use this app to communicate with customers that visit my store. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that I wish it had some kind of ping to notify when a customer is trying to reach out

Hey, there. Thank you for taking the time and writing this review! If you're using the desktop notifications (https://bit.ly/3DyLxDv), then there is an alert sound and a visual indicator. That being said, for mobile notifications or mobile reminders (https://bit.ly/3sURAij), you can enable the sounds or the pop-up banner style for Shopify Inbox through the Notification settings on your iOS or Android device. If you need any help with this, then our support team would be happy to assist you. Please visit the Shopify Help Center (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) and log into your account to create a support request. Cheers! -Elias, Shopify Support

Pretty nice. A little bit more customization options would be great & "available hours" should be shown to customers directly.
But it works just fine :)
