Great App, worked really well for us, but disappointed to see Instagram and Facebook Messenger will no longer be supported, having it all in one place is the main draw of this
Hi, there! I appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. I can definitely understand why having everything in one place has been helpful. I'll definitely pass this feedback on to our developer team. In the meantime, I wanted to let you know that you can continue replying to Facebook & Instagram Messenger messages through Meta Business Suite. You can learn more about this in their help documentation here: https://bit.ly/3LataZI. -Erin, Shopify Support
This app is adding (1) in all titles of stores for years and they're not solving it. I've seen it also in other stores using this which affects SEO.
We appreciate you letting us know that you have been experiencing this issue here in your review. Our developers are aware of this problem and have made a change on our end that we believe will resolve this issue for affected merchants. However, as you will likely need Google to recrawl your website in order to see the problem resolved on your site, we'd recommend following the instructions listed here in order to help get this issue fixed as soon as possible: https://bit.ly/3HUjHT9.
Thank you for getting in touch and I hope you're able to see this fixed on your store before too long. -Victor, Shopify Support
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.
Necesito modificar el idioma de la app de español a ingles, como puedo hacer?
Ya que mi tienda tiene como objetivo el mercado estadounidence. Gracias
Eccezionale
I wish it would take me automatically to the store I have it linked to without having to relog in for whatever reason, and let me use the enter button, so I can professionally write e-mails without it going one line. Other than that, I'm pleased, just wish there'd be a noise or something on the notifications so I can respond faster
Hey, there. Thank you for taking the time and sharing this review! We're delighted to hear that you're pleased with Shopify Inbox and we greatly appreciate your feedback. We understand that you'd like to see some improvements, such as automatically accessing the store, being able to use the enter button, and having sound alerts for new notifications, and we'd be more than happy to pass these suggestions along to our development team for considerations with future releases or updates. Cheers! -Elias, Shopify Support
I love that it provides the customer order and cart info on the screen. I took one star off because it doesn't seem to integrate with other CRM apps where we store and access more in depth customer data and communications (hubspot, pipedrive, etc.)
I want to like it, but it definitely has some annoying shortfalls. My biggest wish is that in addition to the away message, it'd be nice to just disable the chat altogether and hide it from the website on a schedule. I do this manually sometimes so I'm not getting pinged on my off days, but somehow customers are still able to send messages. Then the app keeps bugging me that "A customer is awaiting a response" and "Make sure you respond to the customer before they get away!" even though I have an away message set with details of how to reach us when the chat window is supposed to be "closed." We only have one person (me) handling online customer support, and I don't want to always be "On" and "Available." I like how well it integrates with Shopify since it is a native app, and the inbox page and app work well. I like how quick and easy it is to solve problems and answer questions when a customer reaches out. I like how they changed the way responses work when sending a message after the customer left the site. Email is much less disruptive and expected vs getting a response with no context from a random phone number because phone numbers used to be required. Please keep working on the app and making it better, but I'm probably disabling it again after the holidays and the holiday returns season is over.
Thank you for taking the time and sharing this feedback with us. We can see how having the ability to schedule the chat availability and being able to disable some of the notifications can be beneficial. We'd be happy to share this with our development team, so we can continue to make our app better. Cheers! -Elias, Shopify Support
I have been using this app for over 6 months now. It is better than other third party apps. However, there is no auto-response feature. This doesn't raise notifications consistently thereby we missed customer entry/exit. Also, unable to ping/reach the existing customer after they exit the store. More features need to be added to earn 5 *
Hello Swadeshi Boutique, thanks for your review and feedback!
Although Shopify Chat does not currently have auto-response feature, it does have an order look-up feature allowing customers to find a status on their order. Also, for the entry/exit feature, it does not send out notifications until the customer sends you a message.
We continually work towards making Shopify Chat a better app and rely on your feedback! If you have any questions, issues or additional feedback, we can be reached at ping@shopify.com.
All the best to your success!

Very good, only frustration is that on Apple Business Chat it only allows full screen chat which doesn't enable to take visitors on a site tour.
