Shopify Inbox
All reviews
Loathe the automatic opt in on "Shopify Magic" AI responses; on-phone app always shows notifications when there are none. No positive feedback for this app.
Sehr altbacken, wenige Einstellungsmöglichkeiten und Desktop nicht gleich mit Mobile Version!
it's too difficult to change the notification device. it's going to a device i no longer have
Thank you for your review. We would like to help you access the mobile app if you are still having trouble with it - feel free to reach out to our team at [email protected] with more information. - Shopify Inbox team
A lot of scammers are reaching out through this platform using the shopify inbox as a way to contact the owner of the store. They are offering to assist new stores with "consider implementing the necessary changes to enhance our store's performance and visibility". Here's a concise breakdown of what needs to be addressed: 1. Reactivate and configure the disabled feature to restore full functionality and ensure seamless indexing by search engines. 2. Implement advanced on-page SEO strategies, including metadata optimization and structured data integration, to enhance organic visibility. 3. Generate and submit an updated XML sitemap to Google Search Console, ensuring expedited crawling and indexing of your store’s pages. And other suspicious activities.
can't get any users to be able to chat on this except for myself. poor interface.
there is no way to export the chat messages out of inbox app
I do not recommend - We have been getting explicit videos for a week on this app, and there is no way to block people via IP or other means, or a way to prevent people from uploading files. This individual just uses fake emails and floods our inbox. Like usual, Shopify support is not helpful. Exploring other apps.
This is the most annoying POC for a business
Works well as a messaging service EXCEPT from the security of the app and zero protection from scammers and fake email use. Spammers can use fake emails to send messages and leave you endless spam and there is no way to stop them, leaving you sifting through spam to find your genuine customers. The app needs an email verification system or an IP blocking capability to make it more secure. Because of this huge flaw, I give it a 1 star review.
There is no sound notification when a message arrives. Its bad
Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We understand that this is frustrating as you should be able to receive notifications with sound for Inbox. Within Inbox settings you can check that your "Push notifications (desktop and mobile)" are enabled. On your mobile device, you also need to have the sound notifications enabled under your general phone settings. If you still are having trouble receiving sound notifications please reach out to us at [email protected] and we can assist further. Thanks! - Shopify Inbox Team
THought it was great but it overlaps my shopping cart button on mobile and there's no way to adjust it. Fight and pay to get people to my site, they add my products and then can't get to them to pay?!
Thanks for flagging this, a chat widget covering the cart button on mobile is a real problem since it gets directly in the way of checkout. The widget's mobile placement options are limited, and getting it to clear the cart button usually takes a look at your theme. Our team can help reposition it at help.shopify.com/support, and we'll pass the need for better mobile placement controls along to the Inbox team.
I can't get the Chat bubble to disappear from my website home page. It hides the language preference icon and makes navigation difficult. I've asked for help several times and have been waiting for an answer for a week, but nothing happens. I'm really disappointed. This application is neither user-friendly nor logical.
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. This sounds like a bug that we would like to look into and help you fix for your shop. Please reach out to us at [email protected] and our developer team can help you with this issue. - Shopify Inbox Team
There's no way to restrict notifications from reaching you at all hours! Even if you set the times the chat is "available" you still get a notification on the app every single time a customer messages no matter the time. This is a basic feature they should have.
Thanks for sharing your feedback, we understand that this would be frustrating and have shared it with our product team. Currently we do not have a way to restrict notifications during certain hours within our app. A solution for the time being could be to snooze notifications on your device during your unavailable hours. On iOS this is set under the "Focus" settings (i.e. you can silence the Inbox app specifically during certain hours). On Android this should be called "notification snoozing". Hope that helps! Feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] with any further questions. - Shopify Inbox Team

Shopify has decided that we no longer need to see statistics of how our staff are doing in Shopify inbox and removed: 1. Average response time and mainly 2. Sales Why would you even think that we don't need to see performance of this sales channel? Shopify support was NOT able to solve this.
Hi there. Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, we truly appreciate it. As I can completely understand the impact of this change, I've gone ahead and shared your feedback with our developers. We are however, always working to improve platform and appreciate you sharing those points. - Blair, Shop Support
This may be a good app, I may be able to add that when I figure out how to use it. An app without detailed instructions is USELESS and I am shocked at the absolute lack of instruction for setup, bad navigation, and how customers are supposed to somehow just figure this out. This is true of my entire shopify experience but they are not alone, most providers today seem to think that developing a next gen solution should not include instructions on how to use it.
Deleting this app!! All you get from it is an outrageous amount of SPAM. I have had to block so many messages and especially on my social media accounts. I never had spam on there before. Seems like my traffic on my site has gone way down in the past few weeks also. I tested the Track my order question I added, and it doesn't work at all. I used my most recent order that has tracking and all I got was this message, Sorry, we couldn't find an order with the order number and email address you provided. Please check for typos and ensure the order number is from our online store. You can also message us for help. This app is Another BRILLIANT SHOPIFY BUILT APP. I really expect way more from team of so-called experts that I have been paying for more than a year now. All Your Apps SUCK!!!! They do more harm than good to your store.
Hi, there. Thank you for your feedback, and I'm sorry to hear about the issues you've been experiencing. I recommend blocking any spam conversations you receive through Shopify Inbox. You can do so by clicking the exclamation mark in the top right corner of your screen, or the 3 dots if you're using the mobile app. If you contact us through the Help Center (https://shopify.link/vRnL) we can investigate the error messages you've received on your store and answer any further questions you have. Thank you! - Greta, Shopify Support
I've been using this app since the beginning and then suddenly the chat bubble disappeared. I tried everything to fix it, I even reinstalled the app, but it didn't work. In addition to the app being rubbish (like most Shopify apps), now the same can definitely be said for Shopify support. The Get Support link just doesn't work (504 Gateway Time-out). It's sad to see the former e-commerce giant turn into a worthless platform that has clearly lost all strings. EDIT: I finally got support and the most shameless answer possible. Of course, they shifted the blame to another app with the excuse that some scripts were added on April 15th that are causing the problem. Of course, that is a plain LIE because Inbox ceased to function long before that date. Besides they don't know how to make apps and maintain them, now they have started to shamelessly LIE to users! Liars and hypocrites. As a platform they have become plain garbage and only useful to Plus users, but they make billions from us, regular users.
