Don't be fooled by 4.9 stars. The app is really horrible, I wish I could give zero star. It messed up all my reviews. The export excel file is like shit, all my reviews are all messed up. Not able to recover back... Plus, the reviews imported by this app was not able to export out, beware! Sometimes it won't be able to import reviews too. The support also very bad. Each time you have to wait at least half an hour...The support also not friendly to speak to...It is the worst app I ever encounter, not worth a cent..

Sorry you had a bad experience. However in the 2 months you used our app, you contacted us 8 times and we helped you with the setup, all sorts of small adjustments, any queries related to how the app works. You were a very demanding customer, on the cheapest plan, but still got the full 7 days a week support, with replies within 30min or quicker.

After looking at the transcripts, support was always in a professional manner - can you please send me an example to support@opinew.com where you think it was rude or inappropriate? Maybe I have missed something?

Regarding exports - all the organic reviews can be exported, imported ones cannot. You need to find another importer tool to import those. That's to prevent people from importing via Opinew and then going to a free app with all the reviews. It's just fair IMHO.

Don't bother with this app, review sometimes don't add. And when you try and delete the app, it doesn't fully remove itself! You've been warned!!!!!!!!

Hi - sorry about this. Use this method to remove the code automatically: https://www.opinew.com/help-center/knowledge-base/uninstall-and-remove-opinew-code/

This is actually a problem with Shopify. They don't let us remove the code when you click uninstall in the app menu. You need to click the uninstall from inside the actual app and it will all be gone :)

Bad app, and it leaves some code when you uninstall it ! It slows your website and leave a visual parasite on your website if you uninstall it !

Our support is always more than happy to help with the uninstallation and we are usually able to do it right away or within a few hours from uninstall, even on the weekends. The merchant never got in touch with us.

The slowdown must have been caused by some other apps - Opinew is one of the best optimized apps - all of our javascript/css are merged into single files, minified and on a CDN network to reduce the weight and amount of network requests.

It never finished installing. There was some kind of bug, maybe it was having trouble with another app but nothing every loaded. So that was a disappointment.

Sorry to hear that - we had limited availability to deal with support tickets because it was Christmas Eve, which I hope is understandable. If you want to help us install the app please get in touch.

Hi - sorry to hear you had a bad experience but you never got in touch with our support that's available on live chat every day of the week. Install the app again and we'll be more than happy to help.

Bad quality of the reviews (we can not choose which ones we want), it doesnt look good on the website and even when I removed it from apps list, the stars under my products name left and I had to deal with it. Also the "chat help" on their website doesn't work! I do not recommend!!!!!!!

You can always delete the imported reviews you don't want. You probably didn't see the button in the products section.

And to cleanly remove all the code press the uninstall button in the account menu of the app. That removes the code and then uninstalls the app.

Hi - here is a guide on how to automatically remove all the code cleanly from your theme without reinstalling it. Takes a few moments only.

https://www.opinew.com/help-center/knowledge-base/uninstall-and-remove-opinew-code/

Sorry about this - It's purely Shopify's fault that they don't let us developers remove the code when you uninstall. It's been a problem for years now.

Hi - we apologise and it really is annoying for us too because it's Shopify's fault. They don't let us uninstall our code when you uninstall the app.

To remove the code, install the app again > go to Account menu > click uninstall button at the bottom. This will uninstall the code.

You need to uninstall Opinew from our app menu to remove the code.

We checked your site and you didn't install any Opinew code, you installed the app and then immediately uninstalled it. It could not possibly have been Opinew that caused the "garbled characters"

We do not appreciate the unrelated 1 star review, however we would welcome you back to actually see the positive impact Opinew can have on your store.

Our support engineers are available 24/7 and have the technical ability to help you with code too, so if there is something you are struggling with on your site perhaps they could advise as to what has been causing your issues?

Thanks,
Customer Success Team | Opinew
