Privy ‑ Pop Ups, Email, & SMS

Privy works great. I've used it for years with great success. I've lowered the rating to 3 stars entirely because of the way they now have their paid plan set up.
I only use Privy for pop ups. I average around 5000 visitors a month which I thought would keep me in the free to use zone. However they count every page a customer views on your website. So this means I would at least need the 25,000 "pageview" plan that costs $35. For me it's not worth paying more than my entire Shopify subscription to make use of their pop up function.
So I've switched to the MailMunch pop up. It's free and looks pretty similar to what I was using with Privy.
To sum it up. If you are a low traffic store Privy's free option really is great. However, if you're like me adding another subscription for a simple pop up ad just doesn't feel worth it.

I was torn between a 3 and 4 star review because the app itself is very easy to use and works well.

My complaints are control around customizing the user experience. On mobile, I have painfully watched recordings of customers trying in vain to click the little x to close the window. Sometimes I think they get so frustrated that they leave. There should be an option to allow click-out close on mobile. Like they should be able to click outside of the window for it to close.

Also a custom size on mobile would be great - like just a banner instead of a whole popup. I know there are work-arounds, but they're not ideal.

Overall, I would still recommend this app. It is free, after all, and collects emails quite well. I just think there is a bit of room for improvement.

I haven't gotten to use Privy yet, but they keep prompting me for a review. I am excited to do so!

It's OK for now. Would love it if the app stopped prompting us to review when we haven't really had a chance to take advantage of it...

I am being asked to review the app before I've had a chance to use it. However I am being briefed that I have only completed 3/4 start up steps completed unless I write a review. So here it is!

I just got the app. The annoying popup kept asking for a review...

Have not finished installing yet... will let you know how it goes

Thanks,

I'll see how it goes??!!

Not sure as yet - it quite difficult to navigate, and I still hav not achieved what I want from the app.

I've used the app for 5 minutes and have been asked for a review at least 25 times. I'll update this review once I can give you a review.
