Shopify Subscriptions

it's been painful...trying on desktop rather than mobile to see if i can setup one subscription.

I would like to be able to emulate customer profiles and get better monthly reporting on run rates. Essentially it would be nice to get more information on projecting cash flows from recurring orders in our subscription models. I have also had a lot of customer reach out saying they are having a hard time to login into the platform. Overall though very easy to set up and the automated features are excellent. Lot of great value.

My customers have been having trouble skipping, pausing and cancelling their subscriptions

Love it

There is no way to reach out to customer care. If storefront has "Toggle" Style selected - when switching the Shopify Subscriptions widget from subscription to one-time purchase, the hidden selling_plan input retains the subscription plan ID. The one-time selection is therefore NOT added to the cart as a subscription. Tested it, thankfully did not make it live, this would really make the customers mad.

can't easily find how to change the language on this - it's for monthly donations not products

Unfortunately, this app has had a significant negative impact on our business. The biggest issue is that when a customer changes a product variant, the purchase option automatically switches from One-time purchase to Subscribe & Save. In our experience, this resulted in customers being enrolled in subscriptions they never intended to purchase. I arrived at work on Monday morning to find that nine customers had been subscribed incorrectly, and one of our long-standing customers, who has spent over £30,000 with us, decided to stop buying from us because of the experience saying we are a company trying to deceive and scam. I contacted Shopify Support expecting there to be a setting to keep One-time purchase selected by default regardless of variant changes. Instead, I was informed that this is simply how the app is designed and that it cannot be changed through the available settings. If you plan to use this app, be aware that it may not work as expected straight out of the box. In our case, we needed a developer to implement a custom solution to prevent the purchase option from changing automatically. I hope Shopify either adds a setting to control this behaviour or changes the default functionality, as it has the potential to create confusion for customers and unnecessary issues for merchants.
