Shopify Digital Products

Fantastic product and free to use. Highly recommend this app. Easy to use. A great addition to any site. Thank you.

Great just what we were looking for. Thanks.

It's free and bearing that in mind it's superb.

Well, It's free but it's also essential to use shopify for digital products. They need to do so much work on this app though. We need to be able to see when a customer has downloaded and from which IP address with order details. I can't delete files for the digital products that have been removed, they are still in the list! The stat's page needs a complete redesign. Need a global setting for download limit. The list goes on. It does do the job, but needs some love to make it great! Updated review: After about 3 months of use - there are problems with large downloads not completing and the downloads are very, very slow, unacceptably slow in fact. This app is probably OK for small files but for anything over 250 MB I would look else where. Also, the email address that the download links come from often gets rejected as spam resulting in the customer not getting the link and YOU have to manually create a link and send it to them - not good if you have 100's of orders a month! I will have to move to a PAID app, but that is probably why this free one is so restricted isn't it Shopify?

This is a great way to sell digital content. We found this to be simple to install and use for selling photographs and video content for immediate download.

Fabulous app. Works as described and have never encountered an issue!

Easy to use and a good free app to get started with. Does have some limitations as you can't bulk upload files etc but does what it says.

If it was more customisable it would be 5 stars. I would like to have unique product update email templates for each product... please :)

Basic app. Mostly does what it says for free but has some significant drawbacks. The basic setting is 'unlimited instant downloads'. If you have mixed products which include a download plus a physical product, or if you want to limit the number of downloads per purchase, you have to reload the app page and edit each item individually. There is no way to change the basic setting - very annoying when you need to change it for every single item. Update: Having used this app for a while now and find it does not work consistently. I too often have to email customers the downloads because they can't access them. Have now also installed Sky Pilot and find that a much better app. Have deleted Digital Downloads.

A nice start, but one star from me until you can attach multiple files to the same product variant. Shopify's suggestion of attaching a .zip file is useless: many people don't know how to use them, and we lose the vast number of customers who are purchasing on mobile devices that can't handle .zip files.

Works pretty well, but lacks a few features that would make it more convenient to use. For example, there is no way to make bulk edits to the settings for all items - we wanted to change the download limit for our products, but there is no way to set them all at once, so we have to change each of the 1,700 individually.

Works great and easy to use. Don't even have to think about it once it's set up. I have this set up on a shop that fulfills physical items, but use this feature to make free PDF downloads available while still gathering emails. Since I use it to provide free downloads to my customers, my only wish is that for free orders all they would have to provide is name and email address - rather than still going through checkout like regular orders. I think that turns some people off from completing the process.

I agree with the last two reviews. This app was PERFECT when it allowed for manual fulfillment at a later date, but sent the download immediately upon checkout completion. Now, that functionality has been changed / disabled and support has given me a similar response, stating that functionality was incorrect (although, sounds like at least a few of us didn't think so). Maybe let the app do what customers want, even if it wasn't the original intent?

As per the previous review, I was using this app for the last 6 months and it was working fine, however it's stopped working now and I'm not sure why. I have tried contacting the developer but no answer yet. I have also tried re-uploading the digital files but that didn't help either.

I LOVE this app. Very easy to use and set up. My digital content is a PDF file with tutorials.I like that I can limit the number of downloads a customer can have for an order. Wish there was something I could do to is prevent customers from sharing that once they receive the PDF

This app is almost perfect - just one glaring omission. Why can't customers who are logged into their account download their items from their order page? I know it's possible because both Etsy and Craftsy have that feature. I hope this is something in the works for the future. Otherwise everything is fantastic - great interface and very easy to use.

This app has two major drawbacks: 1. You cannot set download links to expire after a set amount of time. This is bad. 2. Customers cannot access download links from their account page. Both of these issues seem like obvious features, and I can't understand why they aren't included.

This is a good app and I would rate it 5 stars if it wouldn't mark a product as fulfilled if "requires shipping" is checked. I have books that have 3 options: digital, physical, or both. I let customers add the digital for a fraction of the cost of buying both separately and it's been a great upsell for me. Problem is that if I have Shopify auto fulfill the "both" order it marks the entire line item as fulfilled and thus the entire order and risks that order not being fulfilled. I don't want to create several different products that are visible to customers and shopify does not allow hidden products or products with no category to be added to a bundle. I did contact shopify and they said I had 2 options: fulfull all orders manually or give customers a 100% discount code for the digital product. Both options are a hassle and I'm still looking for a good solution. As a side note to a below comments, I have received zero complaints about being able to download the file from the link provided, and had no problem figuring out how to set the download for a product.

Would get 5 stars easily if it could do the following: * Allow users to get download link when they login to the store. It makes no sense how they can get tracking for their physical items through their account but cannot get a link to their digital download. * Update fulfillment fields with link to download. This will allow anyone using the API to get and display the download link to customers.

I have been testing this for several days now and I have not experienced any problems. The download emails have never taken more than a minute to show up. I was wondering if anyone has been able to get access to the attachment URL as specified in the email template ({{ attachment.shop_url }}) but on the customer orders page? A great feature to add would be to produce unique keys with the download from a list. This seems like a standard feature on other paid apps but could work so much better if it was integrated with Digital Downloads.
