I wish i could give you lot less than 1 star, you guys simply update or discontinue your old app with out informing us, your support is HORRIBLE and incompetant i am stuck here with a slew of order i cant book from my shopify admin because you just randomly change EVERYTHING with your updates, If it were possible to leave negative stars, The Courier Guy’s Shopify app would genuinely deserve them. The sheer negligence they have shown toward their merchants is staggering.

Out of nowhere, they decided to completely overhaul-or perhaps entirely discontinue-their old app without a single shred of communication. No emails, no warnings, no transition period. Who rolls out a massive, system-breaking update that changes everything without giving their users a heads-up?

Because of this reckless rollout, my Shopify integration is completely paralyzed. I am currently stranded with a massive backlog of unfulfilled orders that I cannot book from my admin dashboard. To make a catastrophic situation even worse, their customer support is utterly abysmal. When you reach out for help in the middle of the crisis they created, you are met with breathtaking incompetence. They are completely unequipped to fix their own broken system.

If you run a business that actually relies on functional software and reliable shipping, do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. An absolutely horrible, business-breaking experience. Avoid at all costs.horrible!

I need support regarding this please. I can see how it will be useful to many orders I have. But it gives me errors.

EDIT: The app developers have been actively working with us to resolve the app errors. Finally we are making some good progress and the app is actively becoming better week by week. Thanks to Bruce, Chris and the team at AppInlet
----------------------------------------------------
This app experience has been so so.

On the one hand it gets the job done. On the other, upon making a new booking, it lacks the basic ability to automatically mark orders as fulfilled and sending the client their tracking number. So this all needs to be done manually, which each and every order.

TCG keep referring me to the app developer (App-Inlet), so does Shopify, and AppInlet Support themselves, although kind and courteous, have not actually been helpful on this impairment. I’ve been hounding them for months on wether the app can perform this basic function (i.e. by activating carrier calculated shipping, a basic add-on for any Shopify plan). Or what exactly about a higher-tier plan, if even necessary, would make this function work.

Without seeming to know themselves, and evidently not interested enough in figuring it out, their latest pitiful message has been one of "it's not our job to figure it out".

We will likely change courier providers soon, with a more solid app, as we spend hours adding tracking details manually, and who has time for that..
