Digital Downloads

Like many others, this app was working fine then randomly stopped working. We need to move to something else.

I LOVED this app until it stopped working in Dec 2024. I can not upload my digitals to my products. It was sooo easy to use. Much easier than the other digital download products available. I wish you all would fix the app. Would make my day and business so much easier.

First time I used it, I muddled my way through, 2nd time was difficult, third time, even harder, I can't get the order to go over to the digital download side, so have manually sent a link to download it Have asked for support, but find support quite slow, they seem to spend more time writing niceities, than just helping. I wouldn't recommend, hopefully there is a better option out there, as this is frustrating. I have an urgent order and I can't get it to work. Was then told that the app developers are working on "crucial bugs" and to try sky pilot or another paid app instead, if shopify no longer care about keeping their apps working. remove them so their customers don't use them and then look like idiots to their customers when it doesn't work.

this app was working fine then randomly stopped working. I can't get in touch with anyone and support tells me "it's been escalated" but it's been 5 days so far and still nothing. All of this is currently happening on black Friday weekend and NONE of my orders are fulfilled. I need to reach out to each customer individually to manually send them what they purchased. I can see that the app "requires an update by app developer" but support was not able to find that (I found it myself) and as of day 5 this is STILL not fixed.

Basically stopped functioning properly ( No link on checkout page and random emails to customers with download links if they are lucky). Support said they are not continuing to support the app - would be nice to have been told before you upload thousands of digital files. They suggested using a few other 3rd party apps on their store - all of which are more to subscribe too than my actually shopify plan. Appalling and I will be looking at a new platform such as Payhip which looks after its customers way better. They need to do the right thing and fix the very basis problem such as giving customers a doenload link - not rocket science.

1. MAY NOT SEND LINK. 2. NO CONFIRMATION PAGE LINK. Details: 1. May not get link: We have checkout>order updates> enabled for sms OR email. If customers checkout with sms, they will NEVER get an EMAILED download link. We would have to eliminate order updates by sms to require an email be added to the order. We have several customers that rely on text order updates so this is not a viable solution. 2. No confirmation page link: It does not appear AT ALL on the order confirmation page DESPITE being ACTIVE in the Digital Download app settings. Just wasted my time for over an hour with Shopify help - here is a quote from help: "I wanted to share with you that the download link is sometimes not appearing on the order confirmation page, which is expected behavior." No, dude. That IS NOT at all expected behavior.

Don't hope for a good experience with this app. The 1 star reviews tell you everything you need to know, and stay clear! This app will not display a download link on the order confirmation page. Only an email will be sent. So many horror stories. Look elsewhere.

Absolutely dreadful, do not use. It has been generating all kinds of bogus emails to my customers. Very embarrassing.

There's no protection on the download link, so anyone can download the files without needing to register or buy them. They can also be copied and shared in chats and on social media.

This app is complete balls, customers cant even login to view their product so if the initial email is lost the product is lost. complete shite just use sky pilot if ur strapped for cash.

this goes out of its way to be clunky and cumbersome. if you're here looking for a solution to sell music, unfortunately this probably ain't it.

Recently application stopped working, no longer sends customers download links.

Terrible doesn't allow me to upload the files successfully i keep getting message saying try again later. Shopify community doesn't even bother to help either. I'm paying $20 per month for nothing.

I've used this app for years with no problems. With the last Shopify settings update this app no longer works at all. I also had it installed on some of my client's websites I designed because it never gave me trouble before and it was free. DO NOT DOWNLOAD because Shopify support told me they would not be fixing the app. Now I have to download a new one and reupload over 1,000 digital downloads.

They say to ignore the old reviews and things have changed but I can't see how. I added the download pdf without a problem - did a test check out and there is no link, or any information to download the pdf. Crazy!

If you sell digital downloads and think about moving to Shopify for this feature: don't, unless you have done your research. Soon after I switched to Shopify with all my customers, they stopped the support for the digital downloads app. I had many chats with the customer service, with different feedback. Some said I should look around for an additional app, others said, they appreciate the feedback and will forward it to the developer team, yet others again said they won't spend any more time on developing this feature. This is 2024, guys. You cannot just sit there and see the money rolling in raising your prices and do nothing, when it is literally a digital world now. Very unimpressed with this part of shopify!

I don't know what the Devs did but this app is currently useless. Not only do new customers not get an email or a download link, but OLD customers lost access to their previous download links on their Order Status Page. This app literally does nothing now.

It just doesn't work. I'm lucky a customer messaged me personally to let me know they weren't receiving their downloads because the app automatically archives orders and claims to have delivered the digital product, even when it hasn't.

It just stops working and nobody at support knows why

It's simply an insult to Shopify customers that in 2024 there is no native, properly functioning digital download app. Links do not appear after purchase and there is no link to download again in the client panel. looking for another solution.
