TERRIBLE. Slowed site down didnt load on every page one of the worst experiences ever had with an app company
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your experience with us. We wanted to let you know that we have taken extreme care in designing our app in a way that doesn't impact your store performance in any way. We ensure our app snippets load last on your website so we don’t hinder the website's speed at any cost. We wanted to check why the app was not loading on all the pages, which is usually not the case. However, it looks like you have uninstalled the app. We tried calling you and reaching out to you via email so that we can help resolve any issues you were facing but we are yet to hear back from you. Kindly reply to our email and we will be more than happy to assist you to set up the app as expected.

DO NOT INSTALL! it is like a cancer to your store! you will NEVER get rid of their code. the code is planted in several sections of the theme and even if you uninstall it , it stays behind and will mess up any OTHER WISH LIST app that you try to install after that! Their customer support is in india and after 3 months of messing up my store I had to hire a developer and pay to get rid of them!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We noticed that you had installed the Wishlist plus app in August of 2021 and also looks like the code to add the wishlist icon to the header was manually added to your theme files, which means that it will need to be manually removed. We have since automated this via a tool, but given this was done back in 2021, the process was manual. We take the responsibility of modifying a merchant’s site code very seriously, and have a documented process in place to remove any manual changes that have been added for our app, when the app is uninstalled. Given we lose access to the site as soon as the app is uninstalled, we can only do this when we have an explicit request from the merchant and the requisite permissions to remove the code we added. For your store, we do some remnant code from the Header changes that were added. They are easy and straightforward to remove and we’ll be happy to take care of that for you, but need you to give us access to do so. We’ve written to you in this context so we can assist but haven't heard back. Please reply to our email and let us know if we can take care of this for you. Thanks again!

Overpriced rubbish. $100 USD = $150 AUD for such a small feature worth no more that $10-15 max per month for something completely and utterly underwhelming. Customers don't actually use this feature like they claim.
Hello, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. The default wishlist app functionality is designed to set up automatically on your store and helps generate user actions and revenue. We took a detailed look at your Wishlist implementation and noticed that you had used a custom implementation using our Javascript APIs. We also found certain gaps in the way the implementation is handled, due to which the customers might not have been able to make full use of the app. We tried calling you and writing to you to help with the optimization so that you could make the most of our app but unfortunately we were unable to reach you. If you are still looking for a solution please do reach out to us at [email protected] and we will be more than happy to help you make the best use of our app.

12/16/2023 update Be aware that you are unable to customize the wishlist email alert even though I paid $50+ each month! Their very professional support team made a stupid mistake about the price drop email, and made the compare price in red and sent to my customers! I asked them to change that, and one day later, and they told me confidently the issue was fixed! Guess what, the mistake still exists! That's the service I got! 12/20/2023 update 4 DAYS passed, and no one could fix the small CSS code problem, they even made the email worse, they are many error codes on the email header. God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS AT ALL AND FIND ANOTHER APPS

STAY AWAY FROM THISDEVELOPER! the app is crap and when you try to remove it they will crash your website! we installed a new app and were trying for over 2 months to remove their code on the back end! it is impossible to remove!!!!!!!!!! I gave them access again to remove it on the draft theme I created, they crashed that theme, it was showing 404 error, and then they proceeded to mess with the live theme (which worked ok) and now i have a bunch of heart icons on pages (two per page) and on the landing page which were not there yesterday! Absolutely unprofessional to intentionally put bugs in the theme just because we switched to another app!
Hello Mary, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We generally follow the process of not making any code edits to the live theme without approval - and that's been true in your case as well. We have been updating only the draft theme that you had created for us. Our support team has shared a video recording of the edits that were made which clearly highlighted the theme name. We'd never intentionally create issues with the theme files and crash your store. We have requested multiple times to get on a call with us to explain the errors in the draft theme and why we feel the error was pointing to a different source. We still want to help you in removing the app snippets from your theme files. Our team has responded to your email, hopefully, we can get on call this time, to address the open issues.

Not so great customer service! Developer started ignoring our email during the set up. I have found a pay plan for $2 a month that doing exactly the same thing.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review. Upon reviewing your support ticket, we noticed that our team had responded to your requests. We had also enabled the customizations that you had requested. Hope you were receiving our emails. We also tried to reach you via phone and an email earlier today, but couldn't connect. You can respond to our email or drop a note to [email protected] - one of us would be more than happy to help! We are glad another app worked out well for you and we wish you the best with your store. Good luck and Take Care!

If you're trying to get this app working with Klaviyo - then you have a lot of pain ahead of you. The Klaviyo integration was the main reason we selected this app over other wishlist apps. Given the mostly positive reviews, I was expecting the integration and set-up to be easy and well documented. It's neither. The support team is slow to respond, and when they do respond, the assume a level of understanding which I don't have. There is no documentation on how to complete the Klaviyo integration, and no documentation on how to set up the email flows. Seven weeks after installing the app, I'm still in the dark about what we need to do. I'm not an IT person, but the Swym support team seems to think I am. Proceed with caution.
Hello, Thank you for your review. I am sorry that you had such a disappointing experience with us. I looked through the support request you had open with us and we didn't do nearly enough to make sure you had a smooth onboarding experience, so you are completely justified in feeling let down. The Klaivyo integration steps are actually documented in detail on our site - you can access these docs at https://swym.it/playbooks/. I am not seeing that we shared this information with you, so we are reviewing our support response to see why that didn't happen. Please accept my sincere apologies, this is not the standard we strive for and we have certainly fallen short in this case. We will follow up with you via email to try and make this right for you, please consider giving us an opportunity to do so. Sincerely, Arvind

What "Non-English support" means from a very helpful CS: "Sorry about that. Our dashbaord is still configured to support just english" I was baited to install this app and my precious time was gone configuring it.

Cancelled the app and the developer is still taking payments from our card, initially responded to a query about it but now no responses or update or our money back.

The app doesn't allow overseas stores to translate it without paying (it's basically a "tax" on foreign stores). Also, after you remove the app, the floating button remains in your store... apparently you need to remove it manually from your theme code. Waste of time. Update: developer replied that the translation that you could make yourself is disclosed in the pricing plans. Yes, I know that, and I find that an abusive policy. I had already removed the button from the theme manually myself, it wasn't a cached version. Unfortunately people are going to have problems with these leftovers. Here's the thing: I'm not against paying for apps, I do it all the time. But your company should seriously consider an equal treatment of store owners. Just because your store is in another country whose main language is not English doesn't mean you should pay JUST so you can translate the app yourself, that's, honestly, ridiculous. I would rather pay for another app (even more) that allows me to AT LEAST TRY IT DURING A TRIAL PERIOD IN MY OWN LANGUAGE. How am I going to even try the app if I have to pay to translate the app myself? Seriously, it's ridiculous, it's the applefication of ecommerce.
Thank you for trying out our app and for your review. I am sorry to hear that we wasted your time but we do document clearly that translation support is only available on our paid plans in our pricing plans. As for removing the app, the floating button does get removed but the browser was likely rendering a cached version of the page. We lose access the moment you uninstall the app and that prevents us from cleaning up all our files - am sorry about that but its unfortunately a limitation that we can't do much about. We've documented the steps to remove any remnants in this detailed blog post(https://swym.it/how-do-i-clean-up-my-store-after-i-uninstall-wishlist-plus/) but our support team will help you with the removal as well if you like.
