Need to rename to "Shopify Email Sign-up". It is not a "Forms" app like the name implies and 99% of people would think. It is only an email sign-up. If you mistakenly use it for standard Forms (like the name implies) such as customer communication, you will regret it when you later realize you are not notified and cannot access the responses. Seriously - this app has possibly caused merchants more harm than good.
Hi, thanks for your feedback. The Shopify Forms app is an email capture tool that allows you to build your marketing list, through the creation of sign-up forms to collect customer information. If you're looking for a specific feature outside of the ones currently offered within our app, feel free to contact our support team: https://shopify.link/qLKl so that we can help. Thanks! -Kimi, Shopify Support

The way it integrates with Shopify is excellent; however, I would love to design the form and add steps within the modal before the form shows. The completion rate is usually better if you ask the visitor a question first, and once they engage by clicking a button to agree they want..., only then present the form. I would also love to be able to design how the form looks and feels. Maybe add a custom CSS and provide id/classes as a beta.
Hi, There. Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. With the Shopify Forms app you can customize it to fit your needs, check out this help doc with more information: https://shopify.link/77qV. If there is something specific you'd like included that you're not seeing any information on, please view our Shopify Help Center: https://shopify.link/WJna. You can also contact our support team through the help center if you need more assistance. -Kitana, Shopify Support

Our entire use case was to "Capture wholesale leads with customizable account request forms." Apparently, we've had 4 people submit requests, but we did not get any notification of this anywhere, and I cannot find where to get the details of their request - only the fact that they were added as customers. I contacted support, and their response was: "Upon reviewing, the Shopify form app enables you to generate personalized forms for gathering customer information. Although the app offers analytics for form submissions and customer segments, it lacks notification functionality and does not provide specific details regarding the requests made through the form. You must manually review the customer information within the app to access the details of the requests." So, the point "Capture wholesale leads with customizable account request forms" is a complete lie. It caused us four missed event requests.
Hi, there! Thanks so much for your review. We have since updated the Shopify Forms app to allow you to turn on notifications. You can find more details in our help document (https://shopify.link/4xw4). Thank you again! - Greta, Shopify Support

I'm not sure why they don't have any CSS or allow formatting to the theme. I rarely use this app because it looks different than my entire website. All of the other Shopify apps come with custom CSS options - like Mail or the customizer. Makes no sense that we can't even use a theme font! This is such an easy update Shopify! Please fix.
Hi, there! Thank you for your feedback. I have shared it with our developers for further consideration. I also wanted to let you know that the Forms app supports over 200 fonts, so you can match it to your theme. Thanks again! - Greta, Shopify Support

The popup does not get closed in iPhone, upon complaining customer care promised to help me, they said they're working on it and they will keep me updated, they did not provide any solution its been a month and they also haven't updated me on anything terrible experience.
Hey there, I'm sorry to hear about your recent experience. Rest assured we'd be happy to look into your popup not closing issue. Feel free to reach back out in our help center and we can continue the conversation: https://shopify.link/VRd6

Updating review Feb 27, 2024 Excellent overall. Does what it says, and thank you for listening to previous feedback and making changes accordingly. Some additional functionality like opting to NOT add a default tag to customers, or allowing to inject custom styles (the default mobile styles make the form nearly unusable) would improve the experience from a shop owner's perspective. -------- Previous review: Nov 5, 2023 Largely does what it says out of the box. But extremely frustrating that it basically ignores existing customers. So if you want t add a tag for example, it'll only work for new email addresses, making this a very limited use case app.
Hi, thanks for sharing your feedback. At this stage, adding tags to an existing customer is a limitation of the Shopify Forms app. As a workaround, you may be able to create a Shopify Flow workflow: https://shopify.link/6kox that can check your existing customer list for any that meets the tag requirements, and apply the tag that way. This would work on a case by case basis however, depending on your store's use case, but is definitely worth considering. I'll be sure to pass on your feedback to our internal development team for consideration though, so that they're aware of the needs you've shared with us here in your review. Thanks again! -Kimi, Shopify Support

It creates new Customers but does not update existing customers with new tags etc so it has limited use case
Hi there! Thank you for your feedback. I'll be happy to share this with our developers for further consideration. -Shay, Shopify Support

You cannot access the answers for submitted forms by potential clients. Shopify Team has been contacted but they did not offer any help. Shopify Forms team was supposed to reach to us and offer help, but after 9 days, they also did not help. Do not waste time on this app. Get the alternatives.
Hi Caya Invitation Store, thank you for your review and for letting us know about this issue you are experiencing. Can you please reply back here with your ticket number? I'd be happy to review that for you. -Shay, Shopify Support

I cannot translate the Pop-up. Is there any way to do it?
Hi Kiisbeauty, thank you so much for your review! While we don't have translation options just yet, I will be sure to pass that over to our developers for additional consideration. -Shay, Shopify Support

It's called Forms, but should be called "A Form" I would like to see this app support multiple forms across the store. Right now, the app allows creation of a single form only. It does only one thing - create a pop up form to collect email sign ups on your store. A pretty useful and basic functionality, but it would be so much more helpful if more than one forms could be created.
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback! In addition to a popup form, you can create multiple inline forms and place them in different locations on your online store. You're able to add and remove fields to customize these forms for different purposes. Take a look at our guide here for more details on creating different types of forms: https://shopify.link/77qV. -Sophia, Shopify Support

So far the form builder itself is easy to set up and embed. Unfortunately, I cannot find where the completed data is stored within Shopify? The forwarding emails are incomplete and do not replicate the confirmation of data completed, and I cannot find where in Shopify this information is being stored for export. Just seems to vanish!?!
Hi, there! I'm glad to hear that you've found the forms easy to manage so far. The data collected will appear on customer profiles. Data for existing customers will be added to their profiles, and the Forms app will create a profile if the customer is new. You can find this data either under the Customers section of your admin, or by going to 'Apps > Forms', selecting a form, and selecting 'View segment' near the top right. I hope this helps! -Sophia, Shopify Support

I cannot received emails once the customer sent in a submission .
Hi, there! Thanks for your review. After a customer accepts marketing from your online store, their email address or phone number is displayed on the Customers page in your Shopify admin. You can also find these customers by opening the app in your admin, selecting one of the created forms, and click "View segment" in the top right corner. You can find more details in this help document: https://shopify.link/GDx3. Thanks again! - Greta, Shopify Support

Experiência ruim, não recebia as notificações dos formulários, e também não achei simples de encontra-los.

Leider kann ich nicht einsehen welche Optionen meine Kunden ausgewählt haben um meinen Kundenservice zu verbessern. Sehr schade.

Customers can get discount adding fake emails, how do you filter real emails on this form, very basic app, need more advanced things...

La app es muy buena pero presenta problemas con Iphone para el cierre del popup. Agradecería si me ayudan a solucionarlo en mi web. El popup solo cierra si le das doble click. cosa que es perdida de tráfico

App keeps losing custom fields, which I have to keep re-adding when I notice customer data is missing. Not reliable enough for custom forms, other than default name & email, which is already built into the platform.
We really appreciate your feedback and I’m really sorry to hear that you encountered this issue while adding custom fields to your form. We identified and resolved a bug that was the culprit which only occurred in very isolated scenarios. Unfortunately it looks like you were impacted, but this should no longer be an issue going forward. With that said, I can appreciate that these types of bugs affect your confidence in using the app, but we’re committed to ensuring Shopify Forms meets the needs of our merchants and hope to earn your trust back. If you have any questions or additional feedback that you would be open to sharing about your experience, I’d love to connect directly. I’ll reach out via email. Taha, Shopify Marketing Tools PM

I'd give 5 stars if it would send me an email with customer-submitted info. Now you have to check manually the forms app. Might need to change to another app just because of that.

After spending hours building a form with this app I tested it then found out that I do not receive notification emails when someone fills out the form! what is the point of this ? I can see the data If I go to my shopify admin - apps-forms- then select the contact that filled out the form but this is very manual and can easily be overlooked by a busy entrepreneur. I am really disappointed with this, I could expect this with a third party app builder but I chose the shopify forms app specifically to avoid this type of inconvenience.
