Shopify Subscriptions

Thanks

I'd give ZERO stars if I could, this app is a complete waste of time. It's pretty clear that they have no interest in fixing any of the issues when customer support advises that the best course of action is to speak to a third party dev... why would I do that when it's built by Shopify and enabled on a Shopify built theme with no alterations or any additional code. Such a joke, clearly don't know what they are doing given that it was launched after the beta version had numerous bugs.

- Limited options generally
- Can't choose to sell all products, or a category or by tag with subscriptions
- Must pick one and one product into a subscription. Then it crashes! I had to make 4 subscriptions profiles to fit all our 200+ products in subscriptions.
- No translations possible for text displayed on product page (English only) - Disappointing!
- Still no fix to offer customers more than - 1 - shipping option (not app related but still - come on guys!)

This is still the same app i pilot tested this summer, but i can't see any changes. I would recommend Shopify release a proper update at least to the points above, to make this app worth using.

I really hope you work on this app!

User Beware! You would think that Shopify would understand the wants and needs of their store owners and the behavior of customers. In this instance at least, they have failed miserably! There is no functionality to this app except for having subscriptions that customers never want to change. All of the niceties to assist your customers or even analyse your subscriptions are gone.

At this point I don't see how we can keep this app.

The app is fine, but it's useless because of how it handles shipping rates. Basically, it only allows having 1 shipping rate. So, if you want to offer Pickup $0 and Shipping $N, you can't do it. It will always show Pickup $0. It's super important that they fix this...

Good app if you prefer a free option

When it reached the third section titled 'Display Subscriptions on Your Store' with the option of 'Install widget,' I encountered the following message in the widget section:

'Subscription widget will only show on
products that have a subscription plan
attached to them.'

I tried everything to resolve this issue but was unsuccessful."

I've never written a review on a shopify app, even when it's been bad, but this one is beyond bad. We used it when it was in Beta with the hope and promise of improvements when it became available to everyone, but the app hasn't changed at all from the awful beta to now. We have almost zero control over settings, the only thing we can update on our end is how many payment attempts before the subscription is cancelled. It's embarrassing that this is a native shopify app. I know that app creation isn't a simple thing, but there are apps out there that already exist and do a lot better, it seems wild from a user perspective that they would get this so wrong. It has been a nightmare for our team to try to manage, there is no way to search within the app, there is no way to control user access or how they can manage their subscriptions. This app is basically unusable and the amount of band aids and workarounds we have is such a huge time and money suck that we regret switching. If there were any communication at all on upcoming updates we may feel a bit better, but the communication is absolutely zero. It has honestly made us consider leaving shopify altogether, that's how frustrating the whole experience with this app has been. I really really hope for improvements soon.

Please allow multiple shipping options! We have different shipping tiers on Shopify so I don't understand why that can't just carry through to Shopify Subscriptions since this is all under Shopify.

Also, we have tried importing our subscriber list and since the shipping price is wrong, we were told to delete the app for 72 hours to clear our list and start over. Did that and canceled subscribers are still showing up in our contracts dashboard meaning we have duplicates inhibiting us from selling subscriptions to customers.

Support - please help!

It's a good start, but the functionality is extremely limited for someone coming from one of the paid subscription apps. For example you cannot choose a specific date a customer will be charged for their subscription every month. Hopefully they will keep developing features and add options in the future.
Edit: just changed my review to one star because customers only get a single shipping option, no matter how many options you have available
