Point of Sale

This may be the only POS on the market without a function to "leave a TIP" for the employee ringing up the order. While we do sell online retail, we offer barbering services, sharpening, etc.. in our brick and mortar store and are unable to let customers leave a tip on their credit card on this POS, and with more and more people not carrying cash, it looks like we may need to switch POS systems before our staff keeps getting upset that they are losing tips. Other than that, it is a smooth POS integration system, but the lack caring enough to add a simple function is why this POS is not ideal for anyone selling anything other than products. If you run a service, beverage, or food company then you definitely need to shop elsewhere for a POS.

Eventhough it is the native app for shopify, it has recurrent connectivity and sincronization issues with barcodes and inventory
It is unpractical that only certain hardware is available for use with the app, and that this hardware is unexistent outside certain countries or extremely expensive.
It makes no sense that my current computers cant be used, and im forced to use tablets of mobile devices. This issue, next to the associated hardware makes scaling extremely expensive, and opening new venues implies purchasing the expensive and selective associated hardware.
Finally subscription costs are expensive, charging 80USd for being able to associate sales with employees. This should be a basic feature of the app, included with the plus 1000USD i pay monthly for shopify

I have Shopify for my online business for several years. I decided togo to Omni Channel and migrate our pos to Shopify POs. It has been an awful experience.The onboarding team just email you some links with no follow through. We have spend many hours on support call. The support team are very knowledgeable and helpful. All our bluetooth devices stay connected but the barcode scanner gets disconnected. We have turned off the energy setting to "leave on all the time" to no avail.Shopify support told us to leave the system on 24 hrs a day. This did not solve the problem. every morning you have to connect the scanner from scratch. we even send the brand new scanner for repair and used another new scanner with the same issue.This problem has nothing to do with my bluetooth since the other devices such ac tap/Chip and receipt printer stays connected. The interface between pos and barcode scanner is not stable. I have paid for several months but not able to go live. If I could have returned my hardware I would have not continued. Shopify should do way better with their pos considering the runup on theri stock price.

Unbelievably disappointed in the new Shopify POS. I have been with Shopify since February this year. Last week we were forced to update and lost the, save cart function and the returns function, unless we paid almost double to have those options available to us. What is wrong with you Shopify!! Your new program stinks. Buyer beware! Look elsewhere for your POS.

After using the shopify POS for my business it went well.. Unfortunately shopify since signing with apple pay has changed their "TOS" agreement citing that "apple" and apple pay does not approve of the sale of fire arms and or accessories.. Causing me to desperately look for another free or price accomodating POS system and causing me to loose over a full month of business.

I bought the hardware for this app because it said i can use it for my pop up shoo for free. I never even got a chance to use it . the app wants $89 to get my pin to use the app plus it gonna charge my customers smh. I dont recommend false advertisement.

This is absolutely awful! This 'upgrade' has downgraded everything I liked about the shopify POS. Let us switch back to the functional app while you fix this complete travesty. I have lost the ability to track and use our customer loyalty program. It's ridiculous that I have to go do a different page to add a customer to an order. I can't see my products easily. Note that positive reviews seem to all come from before this forced 'upgrade'.

this app is an embarrassment for SHOPIFY - nothing more or less. To be able to use it properly you need an iPad 3 at least (iOS 10.xx ) - if you want to use it on android you have to create a staff account with full(!) permissions - which is outright ridiculous. My plan has 5 staff accounts which is enough for the online store but I have 4 sales staff in a small shop - now they all have to log in to one account and I have to track sales across staff members manually. Also don't bother shopify "gurus" with support questions, they know close to nothing about the app.

If you think you're going to get the same app for an Android as you would with an Apple iOS device, think again. The Android version is just a dumbed down/watered down version of the Shopify mobile app - reduced to just the checkout portion. In other words, you're not really getting a dedicated POS system.

Poor POS app. Researching other options after just a few months. Not physical location friendly. Time consuming to enter orders and can't use a computer for POS.
