Shopify Bundles

Looks like it has promise but has some bugs which made it unusable in our case.

Issue: We have 22 variants on our products. We added 2 products to a bundle which made a total of 44 variants. The app mis-counted it as 500 variants. The variant limit is 100, so we couldn't proceed with the listing.

Mostly a great app to help streamline inventory management. My main critique is that you can't can sell bundle products created through this app at POS locations. As this app is designed primarily to help streamline inventory management, it doesn't make sense that you can't add the POS sales channel to bundle products - hence my 2 star rating... When Shopify add this feature I'll amend my review.

Not really suitable for clothing as the range of normal sizes blows it out of the water on variant limits

So many glitches and bugs - cannot add bundles to a draft order,
cannot change the arrangement / order the products manually (it's just random it seems).

There have been updates since my initial review! The app now does integrate with draft orders. The limit of products has been increased too.

Cons
1. Cannot specify different quantities for more than 3 products within a bundle.
2. Within the app admin, there aren't links through to the individual product's page, so you have to manually check details. Nor does it show the stock of the products which is relevant to whether you want to put it in a bundle!
3. When a bundle is added to a draft order, products aren't shown in-line in the same way normal product adds are, meaning no manual modification of quantities within the bundle.
4. When using a variety of quantity options, you have to add the bundle prices yourself despite the fact that Shopify has the individual unit prices so could automatically calculate it. Given that they allow up to 100 such variations, it would be very time-consuming to recalculate these myself.

Overall, still a clunky app. Hopefully these modifications are already on the product roadmap. Greater transparency on that would be helpful.

Would also be cool to add an option to transform a given Collection into a Bundle.

Pros
1. Integrates directly with the 'Products' section of the Shopify admin, allowing plenty of space to provide details.
2. Apparently the stock also integrates directly with the inventory tracking within the Shopify admin.
3. Integrates with draft order functionality (as of summer 2024).

It's free, so it's hard to complain. But it is very limited. The digital downloads do not deliver, and Shopify themselves recommended a different bundle app to me if I wanted the downloads attached. I'm trying a work around by making the downloads their products and then adding them to the bundle since the download has to be attached to an item and not a bundle. It's also one bundle and not something the customer can pick and choose from items. So if you are looking for a bundle, this is not the one for you. It really helps us with inventory management vs when we tried to physically manage bundles on our end. ***updated - the workaround for the digital items worked in theory, but now the free digital items show as if the customer is charged for them, creating customer service issues. You get what you pay for, and the service by Shopify for this app might as well be nonexistent. Don't waste your time here find something good that actually works like it should.

This app unfortunately doesn't support the Facebook and Google sales channels - nowadays that's a must have. Fix this please and you'll get a 5* review!

We've been looking for a good bundles app which can allow us to manage our stock easier, I couldn't find a decent affordable one but was really happy to see this app from Shopify. However, the downside is that the bundles are only available to display on the Online store channel and not on any other channels such as Google or Facebook and Instagram, which means we can't push them onto our Google merchant centre for google ads nor facebook or instagram. If these channels are available too then this app in my opinion deserves the 5 stars but right now, that's a big red flag in my opinion.

It's frustrating that the app keeps displaying my bundles as out of stock when they're clearly not. It seems to be a recurring glitch, and the workaround only offers a temporary fix, requiring about 20 minutes of manual adjustment each time. Constantly monitoring and fixing this issue is eating into valuable time and potentially costing me sales. Unless this glitch is resolved soon, I'll have no choice but to switch to a different app. It's imperative to address this promptly as it's directly impacting my business's revenue and customer experience.
