Impossible to give more than one star.
I spent over an hour trying to set up this app. Even after following all the instructions, the warning messages kept appearing despite everything being correctly enabled in Shopify.
The interface is confusing, the setup process is not intuitive, and the app feels full of bugs. It's impossible to tell whether the issue comes from the app or the configuration.
To make things worse, there isn't even a live chat. If you need help, you're told to send an email and wait.
Very disappointing first experience. I've uninstalled the app and will be looking for another solution. Goodbye.
Uninstall doesn't clean up, caused massive hidden revenue loss months later. Plus billing kept running after removal. We installed Weglot to test internationalization on our Shopify store, decided it wasn't right for us, and uninstalled within days. Two serious problems followed:
1. They kept charging us for 3 months after we uninstalled. The app was removed from our Shopify store, but the charges continued through Shopify Billing for three full months. We had to chase them down through support to stop it and request refunds. Watch your billing statements carefully uninstalling the app from Shopify does NOT automatically cancel your Weglot subscription.
2. Hidden URL residue caused months of bot traffic and a major revenue hit. When Weglot is active, it creates locale subpaths on your domain (/it/, /de/, /fr/, /ru/, etc.) for translated content. When you uninstall, those URLs stay indexed in Google and continue to be hit by bot crawlers, AI search results, and old links — indefinitely. There's no in-app cleanup, no warning that this will happen, no instructions on how to remove the URLs from search engines.
In our case, these zombie URLs (we don't even sell in those markets) became a magnet for bot/scraper traffic. The volume was high enough that our edge layer's bot-mitigation kicked into overdrive and started returning 403 errors on cart.js for real shoppers whose network profile happened to resemble the bot signatures. Add-to-Cart silently broke for thousands of US customers across multiple devices and browsers. They saw the Add-to-Cart button, clicked it, nothing happened. They bounced. We only caught it through Noibu (an error-monitoring app), which flagged 4,165 affected sessions in a single week with zero progressing to checkout. Estimated annual revenue impact: $104k.
When we finally traced it back, the fix took manual work on our side: ~24 Shopify URL redirects, robots.txt customization, and Google Search Console URL removals — none of which Weglot helps with at uninstall.
For other merchants considering Weglot:
- Before you install, ask in writing how to fully remove URL artifacts at uninstall
- Confirm in writing how to cancel billing (assume uninstall ≠ cancellation)
- Track your conversion + bot traffic for weeks AFTER uninstall, not just during use
- The damage from URL residue can dwarf any short-term value of trying the app. We lost months of clarity on why our conversion was degrading before tracing it back here. Weglot's "easy install, easy
uninstall" framing is misleading. Uninstall is not clean
Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear that uninstalling Weglot did not meet your expectations.
We understand your concerns regarding both the subscription management and the cleanup process after removing the app. While uninstalling Weglot from a Shopify store does not automatically cancel the associated subscription, we recognize that this may not have been as clear as it should have been and appreciate your feedback on the matter.
Regarding the translated URLs, once pages have been crawled and indexed by search engines, their removal typically requires actions outside of Weglot itself. We understand that this process can be time-consuming and appreciate you bringing your experience to our attention. Feedback like yours helps us improve both our documentation and the guidance we provide to merchants.
In the meantime, I’ve reached out to you privately because I’d genuinely like to make things right. As a gesture of goodwill, I’ve offered to fully refund your subscription payments and would be happy to personally handle that for you if you’re open to it.
Our team is always open to discussion, and if you would like to continue the conversation, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at support@weglot.com. We’d be more than happy to assist.
Thank you again for your detailed feedback. It helps us continue improving both our product and the guidance we provide to merchants throughout their journey with Weglot.

Too expensive compared to other similar apps. Their pricing model is thought to grow exponentially. It is unsustainable if you have multiple countries and an active blog to be translated.
Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We completely understand your concern regarding pricing sustainability for very large multilingual projects, especially when managing a large catalog alongside an active blog and multiple target languages.
In your case, our team spent quite a bit of time reviewing your setup, estimating the projected translated volume, and exploring different approaches with you — including optimization strategies and discounted options. As discussed during our exchanges, the main challenge was the exceptionally high volume of content involved rather than a technical limitation with the product itself.
We genuinely appreciate your feedback on this topic, as scalability and long-term cost predictability are important considerations for projects of your size. Our team remains available if you'd ever like to revisit the project with a more tailored long-term approach.

"Unknown error, please contact Weglot support at support@weglot.com. Sorry for the inconvenience."
I paid a fee and tried to use it, but the message above appears and I cannot log in.

la traduction de notre site n est pas vraiment bonne et le cout est très chère si on compare a d'autre service . leur service me coute 140$ par mois
Merci pour votre feedback.
Nous sommes désolés d’apprendre que votre expérience n’a pas été à la hauteur de vos attentes.
Nous avons pris contact afin de mieux comprendre les points soulevés et d’apporter des corrections, notamment sur certaines traductions spécifiques de votre site. Des ajustements ont été effectués de notre côté, mais nous n’avons malheureusement pas eu de retour par la suite pour continuer à affiner les traductions ensemble.
Weglot propose plusieurs outils pour améliorer la qualité des traductions, notamment les règles de glossaire, l’édition manuelle et des options basées sur l’IA, permettant un contrôle précis du contenu traduit.
Notre équipe reste bien entendu disponible si vous souhaitez reprendre les échanges.

I would have given it 0 stars if that were possible. This app was recommended by an agency, but they clearly haven’t used it much. Translating our mega menu is impossible. The default translations are catastrophic, Google Translate does a better job. And when you need to make changes, it’s only word by word. In short, don’t waste your time or your money.
Hi Dr. LEVY,
Thank you for sharing your feedback.
We’re genuinely sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this situation was for you. Following your review, our support team reached out privately to better understand the issues you encountered and offer assistance with the mega-menu translation and editing setup.
As part of this follow-up, a full refund was processed to ensure the matter was resolved on our side, even though we didn’t have the opportunity to address the technical setup together beforehand.
Our support team remains available should you wish to revisit the configuration or need help in the future. We always aim to assist users with complex setups and ensure Weglot works as expected.
Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience.

La pire app que j'aie utilisée. Pour qu'elle fonctionne, il faut changer les DNS de ma boutique. Résultat : quand j'ai désinstallé l'app, et que j'ai voulu remettre les DNS d'origine, cela a créé un problème technique majeur qui a rendu ma boutique inaccessible pendant une journée, et m'a fait perdre beaucoup de temps pour que je comprenne quel était le problème et comment le régler. Shopify ne devrait pas permettre à des apps d'imposer des changements de DNS comme le fait Weglot.
Bonjour,
Merci pour votre retour. Nous sommes sincèrement désolés pour les difficultés rencontrées et pour l’impact que cela a pu avoir sur votre boutique.
Pour clarification, Weglot ne modifie jamais les DNS d’une boutique sans action volontaire du marchand. Certains réglages DNS peuvent être proposés dans le cadre d’intégrations avancées, mais ils sont toujours optionnels, documentés et réversibles. La désinstallation de l’application n’entraîne aucune modification automatique des DNS.
Nous comprenons néanmoins à quel point une indisponibilité de site est pénalisante et regrettons de ne pas avoir pu vous accompagner à ce moment-là. Nous n’avons malheureusement pas réussi à identifier votre compte pour analyser précisément la situation.
Si vous le souhaitez, vous pouvez nous contacter directement à support@weglot.com en indiquant le nom de votre boutique ou l’adresse e-mail associée. Nous prendrons le temps de comprendre ce qu’il s’est passé.
Cordialement,
L’équipe Support Weglot
It's the worst app I've used. The website loads with no texts, then all the text appears after 3-4 seconds.
Also, I deleted the app and since I have to change my DNS a records for this tool, now my website is not working at all...
I never saw an app with a worst setup and execution. And for $32, is a rip off.
Hi Marius,
We’re really sorry to read your review and genuinely regret that your experience with Weglot started off on the wrong foot.
As soon as we became aware of the issue, we reached out right away and offered to assist directly with the setup to get things resolved quickly. However, we didn’t receive any response to our multiple messages, which made it difficult for us to help further.
It seems the issue occurred at the installation stage, so Weglot never actually had the opportunity to run on your site. This is of course not the kind of experience we want for our users, and we remain fully available if you ever wish to revisit the setup.
Best regards,
Weglot Support Team
1-Star (Wish I Could Give 0) – Deceptive Billing & Unauthorized Charges
I canceled my subscription two months ago, yet I’m still being charged
325/ month. When I signed up I picked the 39/month Business plan, but the platform automatically enabled a hidden "Volume Upgrade" option—something I never noticed or consented to. Because of this deceptive practice, I was charged over $300/month for four months before realizing what happened.
Even after canceling, the charges continue. This is predatory behavior—shame on this company for exploiting customers with sneaky auto-upgrades and ignored cancellations.
I’ve already taken action by:
Reporting to the BBB (Better Business Bureau)
Disputing all charges with American Express
Filing complaints with relevant consumer protection agencies
Hi there,
We're really sorry to hear about your experience and completely understand how frustrating this situation must feel.
We want to clarify that our Auto-Upgrade feature is not enabled by default— it must be manually activated. It's designed to ensure your website stays fully translated even if your word count exceeds the plan limit, and we make this clear during setup and in our documentation.
That said, we understand it can sometimes be overlooked, and we're always happy to review it and check further with our customers to see exactly what happened.
Regarding the ongoing charges, it appears that your subscription was not fully canceled, which is why billing continued.
Canceling on Shopify or uninstalling the app doesn't automatically cancel your subscription with Weglot, as billing is handled separately.
In any case, note that we processed the refund of the related charges for you.
Please don't hesitate to reach out to us again directly at support@weglot.com so we can check this further together.
We genuinely appreciate your feedback—it helps us improve both our service and communication.
Best regards,
The Weglot Team
Ils te font encore payer même quand tu désinstalle l'appli. Je ne sait même pas comment arrêter la domiciliation...Appli pas terrible en plus de ça.
Bonjour ,
J'ai le plaisir de vous contacter au nom du Support de Weglot et j'espère que vous allez bien.
Je vous remercie pour l'avis que vous avez posté, et je suis ravi de pouvoir en discuter plus précisément.
L'abonnement ainsi que la résiliation de l'abonnement ne s'effectuant pas au sein de l'app dans Shopify, cela necessite une action complémentaire au sein du Dashboard Weglot.
Vous avez normalement été notifié de cela.
Je constate que vous aviez désinstallé l'application depuis quelques mois et dans la mesure ou vous n'avez pas utilisé Weglot depuis cette date, il est normal de ne pas payer pour le service.
J'ai procédé remboursement de ces mois et une preuve vous a été partagée par email.
Je reste à votre disposition pour tout renseignement complémentaire et vous souhaite une excellente journée.
Weglot Support
