works great ... I would like to learn more about it and find a way to do a pop-up notice to more easily respond. I think there should be a pop-up window option on a desktop/laptop or, at minimum, a popup window/notification bubble or something on the dashboard to indicate a new message and allow for a more timely, possibly live customer interaction.

Add new features. the interface is more friendly now. It can do basic communication. hope to see more helpful and interesting features in the future. UPDATED if the app can add a search chat feature, that would be more helpful. UPDATED please improve to seeing videos from FB messenger attachment. UPDATED: The customer cannot share images and videos until now. Hope this feature comes up soon. Thank you

Our repeat customers buy 2-3 times a year a few months between sales. I work hard to stay connected, and this app gives them an easy way to connect with me in the in-between times. I just started using it but that seems to be the way it's working for me so far.

Clients images never seem to come through to me so I always have to redirect them to email to see their attachments.

At this time, clients are not able to send images through Shopify Chat, but we are working on adding that ability. Keep redirecting them to email for now if you don't mind.

Hope that helps! Get in touch if you need anything else, our team can be reached at ping@shopify.com

Great to see the use of ChatGPT. However, it does need more input from customers who tend to limit the information that they give.

Love the ability to chat with customers on my site. Would love the option to have an away message outside of business hours.

Hello Bloomingdeal$ Furniture Store, thank you for your review and feedback! Glad you love the ability to chat with customers.

For availability hours, we are working on adding that feature so keep your Shopify Ping app up to date!

There is a great Shopify blog post on the benefits and best uses of chats. I highly recommend this read.

It is a good app that allows customers to ask direct questions. however; the delay in getting the notifications sometimes means the customer has left the site. It does send the response via email but sometimes it would be good to interact with the customer straight away - otherwise a great app

Pretty good,

Notifications are a only ok (completed messages still appear unread in the mobile app after being read in the online store). Other than that it's fine.
