It's not the most refined but it works. Feels like it needs a facelift now. Convenient though but just a little clunky

Hi - we started using Shopify inbox as we wanted a chat option with our customers. It works well, a lot of the replies are delivered by email rather than on the chat, and this is because we have missed the notification and the customer has moved off the site and is no longer online.
Notifications are not send to the mail address that has shopify open, which means we often miss that a message has arrived. PCs can chime a lot especially when your phone is connected to the PC like mine is. I would like more control over the notifications to push a notification to an email address, regardless of whether that email address is currently logged into Shopify. Overall though it is a good app

Hey, there! I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with making paragraph breaks when typing a response in the app. You should be able to do this, so we'd like to find out more about what's happening. Please re-install the app, and double check that both your phone and the app aren't due for an update (if they are, please update them). If you're still having trouble with this, please email us at inbox@shopify.com and we can do some further troubleshooting with you. Cheers! - Brie, Shopify Support

I have had this app installed about a month and so far it works good. Notifies me when a customer sends a message and hasn't crashed. So far I have been very happy with it.

I already had a "Contact Me" link on my site.
Since adding the live chat, customer interaction has gone up considerably.
Many have resulted in immediate sales.

Hey, there. Thanks for reaching out about this; I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble logging into the app. There are a number of reasons that you may be receiving this error - I'd recommend double checking that both your app and your device are on their most recent update, and that you're logging in using the same credentials that you use to access your Shopify Admin. If all of this is correct, please contact our live Support team who can look into this further for you: https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA. Cheers! - Brie, Shopify Support

The app has been a big help to us so far in terms of liaising with customers and providing quick answers to people without our input. There are a few things needing to be ironed out, but overall we like it a lot and look forward to seeing improvements. A few issues to note:
* Notifications on iPhone never go away, so it always looks like there's a message to respond to (red number on the app icon).
* Syncing between users and devices seems a bit buggy (conversations closed or assigned in one place don't seem to appear that way elsewhere).
* We are getting a lot of spam messages come in via Instagram especially and it would be good to have a way to block or filter them rather than wasting time on them.
* It would be good to be able to style the chat button via CSS more so than we can now.
* Being able to hide the chat button on certain pages more easily would be great.

Hi, there! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the app, however I'm sorry to hear about your issues with notifications and syncing between phones. If you'd like to email us at inbox@shopify.com, we'd be happy to help you troubleshoot those.

Regarding blocking spam customers - you are actually able to do this within the app now! You may need to update the app or your device in order for this to show up. Thank you for your feedback about the chat button as well - I'll be sure to pass on those requests to our development team. Cheers! - Brie, Shopify Support

I am moving my shop from etsy, so I had high expectations of the messaging capabilities - Shopify inbox has exceeded every expectation I had! I would absolutely recommend the app to anyone, and I love it so much more than anything I've used thus far to speak with customers on!

Hello Meindl Australia, thank you very much for letting us know the app was not working for you.

I will follow up with a direct email to you and see if we can work together on this issue. I'm not sure what you mean by it dropping off the store, so hopefully you can provide some more details so I can troubleshoot for you. Thank you!
