Cant even do free shipping as a subscription option.
Management of it suck both for users and merchant.

Customer said they want to cancel their subscription, when I looked in my subscription app it shows I have 0 contracts. All this time I thought nobody wanted to subscribe. I wonder how many people think they have a subscription to my products but instead this app is not working and making me look like an idiot and more importantly losing long term customers. This makes my business look incompetent. This should be seamless seeing as Shopify's baseline business model is subscriptions.

Needs to serious improvements.
1. If payment failed and customer updates their credit card there is no way customer can trigger and approve the payment again, they are left contacting us, we then cancel the subscription and then tell them to make a new one on the site.
2. Customer cant change or move the date, eg if they order every 6 weeks and want it to trigger at 5 weeks and reset the schedule from 6 weeks from manual payment they cant do it.

Doesn't work for products that are only subscription - i.e. a one time purchase is not an option. The documentation says it does this, but when you set it up as documented customers get a "Variant can only be purchased with a selling plan" error message and can not buy.

Too many glitches. Works sometimes. Needs serious improvements.

1. If payment failed and customer updates their credit card there is no way customer can trigger and approve the payment again, they are left contacting us, we then cancel the subscription and then tell them to make a new one on the site. *Note, Shopify support is not equipped to handles these issues, we just go around in circles since they don't understand their own products.

2. When customer payment fails, no reason is given to us merchants, so we have no explanation for the customer.

3. Customer cant change or move the date, eg if they order every 6 weeks and want it to trigger at 5 weeks and reset the schedule from 6 weeks from manual payment they cant do it.

Please work on fixing these issues, otherwise, I am forced to abandoned the Shopify Subscriptions App.

Hello.

Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback and apologize that you ran into issues using Shopify Subscriptions.

I replicated the steps on the Deli Donut Blend on your store, but could not uncover any glitchy behaviour. All the variants displayed the subscription option every time.

However, if you are still running into any challenges please reach out to our support teams so we can continue the conversation and assist in solving the issues.

App doesn't work at all. People try and subscribe (I tested myself) and it still shows as 0 active subscribers. Moved from another app to this and have now lost all my subscribers - so thanks very much.

In the meantime, there is more information on how to migrate customers from other apps to our subscriptions app. I am linking it here - https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/products/purchase-options/shopify-subscriptions/import-export

Hope this helps resolve this issue if it's related to importing exisiting contracts from another app!

Worst app ever!!! Won't let you correctly separate discount codes per item only per Package. And also, if you use this app on one item, then on every single item that you sell, it will show an option for a monthly subscription. Poorly designed.

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.
