This app works great! I just wish there were more size options to choose for Dymo. To get item, size, price, etc on label have to choose the large one which is so big.

Thank you for your review - I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the app so far! I can definitely appreciate that more label size options would be beneficial; I'll be sure to pass that feedback on to the appropriate team for you. In the meantime, you may want to consider using the Dymo label software to print labels instead: https://bit.ly/39fg0Ji, as there might be some additional options available there. Hope that helps! - Brie, Shopify Support

Good app to get barcodes.
Only one problem I have found so far is that it glitches and it doubles every label I need printed. So if I need 3 it will print 6.

Hi, there. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review for Retail Barcode Labels. I'm sorry to hear about this odd issue you're encountering. I recommend that you make sure that you're not double-clicking the button that lets you print these labels off, as sometimes clicking something too many times too quickly may send multiple requests for an action to take place. If you find that you're still encountering this issue, then reach out to our Live Team for assistance: https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA. -Imogen, Shopify Support

This app is amazing! Makes it soooooo easy to create and print barcodes.

I see a lot of bad reviews on this app and I have no idea why. I guess this is a new app, but I never used the old one. We've had this one for several months and haven't seen any of the issues other people are talking about.

It creates barcodes for all of our products and prints them out nicely. You get lots of control over what to display and where to display it on the tags. I'm wondering if a lot of the bad reviewers just don't have their printing preferences or product naming,pricing, etc. set up correctly.

Does what it says! It creates and prints bar codes. People giving bad reviews must be entitled morons. It's simple but it's FREE!

The app is ok for a freebie. Would be good if it was able to do custom size of labels and perhaps be able to add a logo - the options are limited. We have made it work for us but would be great for it to be better

This app has made printing and generating barcodes for products a lot easier for us.

We previously where manually making the barcode labels for the products which would take more time than needed. Typos and mistakes where often made. As well as having to save every single label...which isn't at all helpful when you have over 1000+ products!

The file is generated into a pdf file, which allows us to use are Zebra label printer to print out this labels.

This app is a game changer for us and hope to see some improvements down the line.

Things that I would wish to see this app implement in the future are:
- to allow custom label sizes to be entered and saved.
- to allow the transfer page to have a print label button available. this way as the product has been approved. hitting print labels for those items and the quantity shown would help get those labels placed on the product right away.
- To allow the title as a 2nd sub to become "..." if to long instead of being removed completely.
- For it to be able to display the compared price if the price is different. That way it displays a sale or price reduction instead of just showing the sale price. Example: $15.00 was $20.00 (I would recommend making this a separate option to allow the seller to choose the old version or this version)
- Add a setting menu to allow us to choose for it to auto generate barcodes as products are made or to leave it turned off to how it currently is now. This would allow sellers that make their own product or just need the barcodes for internal use to get them made right away.

This app does everything I need it to, although it added a few extra steps to my previous pricing and tagging process with the app that was discontinued. It is a bit less efficient, and often I have to "Create Barcodes" multiple times before it actually creates them for the products I need tags for.

Other than that little glitch, its a wonderful app that made the process easy, but it's still less efficient than the previous barcode app we were using.

Junk bar codes that are only valid for your own personal use. Bar codes are 12 digits and these are only 8.

Hi, there. Thank you for taking the time to leave this review and share your feedback. If you already have barcodes, then the number of digits in your barcode is dependent on the label size you are using, as per our guide here: https://bit.ly/3pZeW3m. However, if you want to use the app to create barcode labels, then there will be only 8 digits as per here: https://bit.ly/3dO0zJA.

I can certainly see the benefit in creating barcodes with more than eight digits when creating barcode labels and I would be happy to submit your feedback to our developers for future consideration. Thanks again for your feedback! -Marty, Shopify Support

Our Product names are sometimes too long to fit on one line on the barcode sticker. It would be great if there was an option to have the product name go on two lines on the sticker?

Hi, there! While this isn't possible within the Retail Barcode Labels app itself, you can resolve this issue via the Dymo software that is downloaded when you install the printer.

I'd recommend shortening your product titles, however if this isn't an option then you can actually use the Dymo labels online interface to shrink the title so that it fits on the label. It will look something like this: https://screenshot.click/20-52-rnak9-7xbt5.png.
