Im still waiting for support i got products thats been pending over a week and wont upload to Google or sync correctly products I have deleted days ago are being disapproved even though I have removed them days prior might just have to delete this app and start fresh so my merchant account doesn't get suspended.Shopify needs to get it together and be accountable for issues like this or retire the app because your app is causing alot of peoples accounts to get suspended,you preach about how Google is strict however your support response time is un acceptable waiting for your response will get your account suspended. Best thing to do is delete the app from your store and the products if you see them quickly being disapproved so you dont get your GOOGLE account suspended and just go with a app that you have to pay a couple of bucks,it will be less headache.

Update* 11 months later I tried again. Google couldn't fix tagging issues, couldn't fix feed issues. Couldn't get verified properly. It got to the point i was being advised to "just leave it" and continue setting up paid ads. Considering these things affect cpc and many other factors it not smart for the people who built it to tell you to just leave it with errors and obviously not function correctly. Wasted so many phone calls. They couldn't keep appointments straight. They couldn't keep straight what website they were calling about and I guess they have to rebook for a new day if its not exactly the topic and website they are calling about. Oh and they won't rebook for you over the phone on the call. You have to then play email tag back and fourth for many more days before they set a time. But don't expect to get anything done when they call again! They spend the first 5 min trying to get off the phone and convince you to rebook because they thought it was for another domain or something else they are not able to figure out. I wasted so many phone calls and never got anything even started to be set up. 11 months later and still very bad and nothing set up. older issue below... Won't connect.. I get an error about billing when everything is perfect. I contact shopify they say its an issue with google. (even though its a shopify app) So I contact google, to my surprise they say it's an app that they didn't make so they can't make changes to it. They confirmed everything is set up correct on their end. So I then contact Shopify again, which isn't easy. They say it's google fault but they have no idea why or any idea what to do. Sigh! I Give up, I can tell there is no actual troubleshooting. It's just a computer illiterate person working at home trying to figure out if this goes to tier 2 or not. Shopify you're useless again!!! Oh and to make matters worse all my products are not approved for no reason just like everyone else. Wasted 2 hours and no fix.. time to uninstall

None of our products have been approved. 250+ products have been in "pending" for months. We've submitted four tickets over the course of that time period and gotten no response. For the products that have not been approved, no reason is given by the app. I followed several Shopify tutorials, and I still cannot find the issue. One tutorial suggested that the app should tell me why certain products are not being approved, but that has not been our experience.

As so many others have said, this is easy to initially set up, but the editing is atrocious. Google disapproved many products. I've wanted to go in to make edits, but there is no way to filter, so every product we've EVER had in our store shows up--not just those that are currently available. SO TEDIOUS.

It was great in the first few days, but then all of our five thousands products got disapproved from enhanced listing and google do not give us a particular reason. We cannot find the solution from the articles provided. Many products were moved into pending without a reason. There is no useful support at all.

Sept. 1, 2021

Yes the support provided is just great. The software itself is a very friendly one. In addition to the extraordinary quality support provided by Shopify Support Team!!!

This app has no refresh the feed on the merchant center. just created a product when I config but there's no refresh mode to get changes in the products.

Aug. 19, 2021

This app is bad. We are 8 days in trying to get 26 products approved, not able refresh the feed, will probably have to wait another 5 business days for them to tell me some things not right.. support is useless. Will probably have to delete and start fresh with the sales & orders app. We have 1400 products with this one on another store and never had any issues like this.

need to add custom labels at variant level. as i does not want to advertise all variants of my product.

Aug. 10, 2021

This app no refresh the feed on merchant center. just created a product when I config but don refresh the stock nor changes in the products. I have 1 month with me feed outdated. and on the documents or help articles dont tell anymore about that.

Horrible Customer Service! We have been running very good shopping campaigns since 2018. Come The end of May 2021 something in Google changed and adds stop running with success and cost skyrocketed. We were getting 500% return on ad spend and now it is one to one. We have reached out to Google from 2 months and the support or underwhelming. We even got disconnected on Phone call and they never attempted to call back. The shopping campaigns are automated and we have accepted/acted upon every recommendation from Google. Support is non existent. We should have learned our lesson after building Google Shopping Site and Google discontinued the efforts.

Worked well until it didn't and then it was a disaster. Google closed account for Misrepresentation on 18th June after we updated our URL. All all the information is fed through the App from Shopify we have been unable to resolve. We have lost c£10k in the last 4 weeks and will be out of business soon.

July 1, 2021

I'm done! Worked for many years just fine, 2 weeks ago 3/4 of my items showed sudden errors and no one (neither google nor shopify) seem to be able to figure out why. I have stopped paid advertising until there is a resolution, if ever. At this point I have no confidence they will figure it out. I don't have the time or patience to continue to work with either of them to get it right anymore. After reading other frustrated Shopify sellers I want to add that we also are 100% custom products

June 22, 2021

Does Not Work...Has Not Worked For Years...How there are so many good reviews is beyond me! Only reason I looked at trying again, but I can see that most people have the same issues I have. This should be a number one priority or so you would think! Please don't respond from Shopify telling me that you are going to look into this, just do something!

looks like no matter how much we try to apply fixes, google merchant is still disapproving our products.. I have spent over two months trying all different possible fixes with no luck.. we came to the point where it's really useless using the app! and time-wasting for us really. We are now syncing our products through a google sheet which seem to work, I would love it if the app is working and saves me all the google sheet hassle as well as getting all the consolidated metrics on Shopify Dashboard but it doesn't seem to be possible...

doesn't work with custom products. Won't even update new products. Tried to get help but no joy. give up

May 28, 2021

Terrible for custom products. Our store has over 5000 custom products and due to there being no GTIN / Barcode, the products are being rejected by Google Merchant Center. Shopify's solutions is to MANUALLY SET all 5000+ products as 'Custom Products' in the backend. That's an awful solution to integrating with Google Merchant Center and is going to force us to look for third-party solutions.

May 24, 2021

My ad account has been suspended due to no GTIN, MPN, code and I have custom products. This is very frustrating. Google has given me instruction on editing the API feed to - but that does not seem possible.

May 12, 2021

I used this app to help me set up my Shopify store with ease. I love using Google tools as they are so user friendly and helpful!

May 19, 2021

Previous: Can't update on time, it is very hard to use, information can't edit by ourself, will not sync to google while we change the product. Update: It seems that the App updated now, it does work.
