Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience. Our app has a "Theme Revert" feature to automatically remove all app-related codes from your theme. It's important to use this feature before uninstalling the app because once the app is deleted, it can no longer access your store to clean up the code.

If the "Theme Revert" is not used prior to uninstallation, the store will use the original collection and search template. We also offer live chat and email support for any assistance you might need and typically respond almost immediately. Unfortunately, we couldn't find any record of an email or support request from your store regarding this issue.

Please reach out to our support team via email, and we’ll be more than happy to help resolve this for you.

Not only did this app not do what I want, following the removal steps doesn't work either. This horrible app is a complete waste of time.

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience. Our app includes a "Theme Revert" feature designed to automatically remove all app-related code from your theme. It’s crucial to use this feature before uninstalling the app because once the app is deleted, it loses access to your store, preventing it from cleaning up the code.

If the "Theme Revert" feature isn’t used prior to uninstalling, your store will default to the original collection and search template. We also offer live chat and email support for any assistance you may need, and our team typically responds almost immediately.

Please let us know how we can further assist you.

We're very sorry to hear about your experience. Our app is designed to be compatible with almost all Shopify themes, and it preserves the original collection template. Please note that our app only works on the theme it is set up without impacting other themes in your store.

We always recommend duplicating your live theme and setting up our app on the duplicated version. Our developers can easily address any theme styling issues, and we’re happy to assist. Unfortunately, we couldn't find any support requests from you about this issue. Please contact us via live chat or email, and we'll work quickly to resolve this for you.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. This app will cause you nothing but stress.

I've changed prices today which are displaying on the product page only, but not the collection page. The app is now down and I cannot contact customer support, and had to cancel my entire campaign.

This is not the first issue we have had. We have published products which have not appeared on the website, and had to uninstall the app. Another time when a new product was published, it was displaying with no images and randomly a 404 redirect blog at the top of the page.

This review is to help other merchants to avoid this, as I promise you that you will experience nothing but issues and general slowdown/malfunction of your website.

Terrible support, constant glitches every week. Chat support responds then disappears for hours. Tells you they resolved the glitch without every checking if it was actually fixed. Literally every time they tell you an issue is fixed a new part of the code breaks. Their app went down for 2 days a month ago breaking every collection page on our website. The app functionality is good WHEN it works. Do not recommend.

Unglaublich. Die App hält keinen Traffic aus, und die Produkte werden dadurch nicht geladen! Mehrere Millionen durch diese App verloren! Diese App sollte verboten werden!

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced. After a thorough investigation, we discovered that the problem was not caused by our app. Instead, it was due to a theme code deployment that affected only the live theme. This deployment inadvertently modified our app's JavaScript, leading to the issues you encountered.

Our development team worked diligently to resolve the problem as quickly as possible. We want to assure you that our app is designed to handle a large number of requests per day without any issues.

For future deployments, we recommend excluding all our app files when you are using theme kits tools for code deployment. We understand the frustration this situation caused and appreciate your feedback.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

UPDATED 10/23:
this app is so great in concept. the issue is that their server keeps crashing, leaving our site inaccessible for indeterminate periods of time. we only know when we look at our site and the collections won't load. their support says that they are monitoring, but i have never once been alerted to an outage. really a disappointment.

ORIGINAL:
this app has SO many benefits. want to show all your variants as individual products? they've got it. want to merchandise your site so that it looks super great? no problem. need something custom? the customer service team can probably figure it out. i have yet to find an app that has this level of functionality -- totally changed our website!

The app was great but the problem with the way shopify apps work, when they stop they break everything. This app has been down multiple times in the last few months and when it goes down, no one can use the site. Causing us to miss out in untold revenue.

Been using this app for a few years now. The support team is very responsive and always resolves problems quickly. Highly recommended.
