In order to add subscription functionality, the app will delete your existing product and recreate it. In the process, resetting SKU, and shipping weights without notifying us before hand. Ended up messing up many of our ongoing orders and costing us significant time to clean up.
Hello,
This is Ria, the co-founder of Appstle. Our app DOES NOT delete and recreate existing products to add subscription functionality. That is a convoluted and wasteful process. Appstle is natively and exclusively built for Shopify and Shopify Plus platform, and connects the subscription plans to your existing products in Shopify. Therefore, there WILL BE NO CHANGES TO SKUs, shipping weights, or other associated details. Appstle Subscriptions is currently and actively used by 26,000+ Shopify merchants and it is the above Shopify integrated process for all.
I have poured through our intercom chats and emails, but did not find any communication or ticket from you regarding this. Our merchant support team is available 24/7/365 and would be happy to assist you. Pls ping us on the chat widget or email us at support@appstle.com. Furthermore, one of our Relationship Managers has also reached out to you on the email we found on partner dashboard to guide you.
We value your business and are committed to ensuring your satisfaction with our app. We would love to provide further assistance on this.
messed up my app embeds
This review is a potential fake and has been submitted to Shopify for investigation.
The free version is completely USELESS. I don't know why they even bother offering it. Every single feature of any use is not included. Waste of time.
This is a fake review, which us and a few other apps have been experiencing the past few days.

The review left within a minute of installation, and the language is not only insulting Appstle but also hundreds of our merchants who have benefitted so much from our free and starter plans that are there to encourage and support new and small businesses. The review has been reported to LinkedIn.
App is ok but support is not, Mann in particular. I used every resource available but still was unable to resolve issues. When I asked for help I was just given a simple answer and the support chat was ended without me having an opportunity to follow up and Mann never asked if I needed anything else or if my issue was resolved. I have felt with many different types of support through Shopify and this has by far been the worst
Dear Merchant,
We are sorry to hear you had a less-than-stellar experience with us. Our intention is never to make our merchants feel that we are unreachable.
Our team has curated a short loom video specifically going over the subscription model that you are looking for, explaining limitations and workarounds along with it through the email along with short tutorial videos attached for our Appstle Menu feature as a workaround for your model.
If you need any help with the setup or if you would like to schedule a call with our support specialists, feel free to reach out to us anytime.
Thank you for your valuable feedback.
don't recommend and customer service is pretty clueless. I installed the app and it wasn't working, the radio buttons were NOT showing up on the product page, so a user could not check what frequency they wanted, and couldn't add it to their cart. I messaged customer service, and the first person said that the shopify theme was overriding the radio buttons and would look into it. Two hours later, no thing, then i messaged again and a new person came on. They had the audacity to tell me it wasn't their app widget and they couldn't do anything about it. They don't even know what their own widget looks like. I showed them proof again it was definitely theirs (it was the only subscription app I had installed, was a new store). Again they said the same thing, it's not their app widget, and they couldn't help. Wow! pretty bad customer service.
Dear Merchant,
We apologize for the inconvenience you faced with our app. As explained in the loom videos, the issue you encountered with the radio buttons was related to the widget that was being rendered from your own theme. I am glad we were able to align and get that sorted eventually. We are super glad to have you continue with us!
We should have been faster with the support, and I sincerely regret the experience you received from the first representative. We have put them back on training, to ensure we don’t have any gaps in our service and to meet the high bar we have set for ourselves.
Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or concerns.
Terrible experience and I only installed it, nothing else. I quickly realised it was far too complicated for my needs, so uninstalled and removed the code snippets (yes, uninstalling still leaves code behind). I still have code which Appistle are blaming on Shopify, Shopify put a request into PayPal when I installed the app, asking for recurrent payments to be approved (they weren't by the way), so now I have a permanent message from PayPal about this on my Shopify dashboard. I just want this code removed and the absolute mess sorting out. Shopify are currently trying to sort the mess out for me, which absolutely is not their job when it comes to apps. Unless you 100% want to use the app, and are not just trying it out with their 10 day trial, I would not even entertain it. I know I'm going to get replies from them 'reaching out' and wanting to chat, but the numerous emails back and forth haven't sorted anything so far.
Dear Merchant,
I am the CTO of Appstle. I am sorry you had less than stellar experience with us. I have personally gone over your issues. Let me go over it one by one.
1) Paypal Messaging: Anytime you would install a subscription app, and if your Paypal payment processor isn't configured correctly for Subscription, Shopify would show you this message. It's for your convenience. It's Shopify's way of letting you know that Payment processor isn't ready for Subscription purchase.
2) Shipping - General Profile: Again, if you have a subscription app installed, Shopify lets you know what Shipping profile was used for the order. The reason being, for subscription orders, you can use a different shipping profile if you want to. Hence, it's for your convenience. It's not a bug or anything like that.
3) Left over snippet: We use Shopify recommended App Embed block approach. This gives the merchant the ability to add/remove our code by enabling/disabling app extension in the theme. There are a few things I can see with the code you pointed out. It's commented. That means, it's disabled and it can't do any harm. If you are using any caching app/tool, it may be trying to add our snippet even though the extension is disabled. However, since the extension is disabled, Shopify is complaining about the fact that it can't find our extension. Again, it won't cause any issue. But more importantly, we are not adding that code. You can check with Shopify. The snippet is added by Shopify.
Thanks,
Hemant
