When an app is uninstalled it should revert the site back to its original state without any effort by the user. We have now spent a few hours cleaning up the mess that was left. Modified files are left for you in their modified state. The backed up files are there, however you will have to spend plenty of time reverting the original file back to its original state.
We're sorry to hear about your experience and we understand how unnecessarily time-consuming this has been for you. We thank you for sharing your feedback with us and know how important it is to get everything back the way it was. We're going to look into ways of improving this. For others reading along, we have a button in our app that automatically removes all theme modifications (see https://yoast.com/help/remove-yoast-code-from-theme-in-shopify/). If you've already deleted our app, there are also manual instructions on how to remove them. Sadly, this is not something we can automatically do after deleting our app but we're looking into improving this as best we can.

NO BULKEDIT (available in wordpress for 4 times less price)- maybe only for new site. I installed Yoast after waiting a long time to be available also on shopify. Installing it on a production site i got panic as i saw myself without control of my seo work as everything was overwritten and there was no control possible. Having 8k+ products it was not a good experience. Comunication with support unfortunetly is not 24/7 because we are in different timezones so no immediate reply was possible.
Update 15-02-2023: For visibility purposes, besides our email, we would like to inform you that the Bulk edit feature has been available since July 2022 (along with a new Data migration feature both in beta), in case you missed this update and wish to use our app again. With this feature, you will get all your individual products edited with our app in a list, and you can set focus keywords, titles & descriptions etc. using a CSV file. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to our support team, and we'd be happy to help. Update 25-02-2022: Thank you for your feedback. We are currently working on bulk edit for our Shopify app. Although we can not give you a specific release date, we are hard at work to make it happen! Thank you for your vote of confidence by being one of our first customers on Shopify. We really appreciate that and apologize once again for the issues you ran into. Thanks to your feedback, we’ve updated our app and increased the availability of our support team. We’re now responding faster than ever to support requests via email, and have added chat support. You can reach us via live chat through the ? in the bottom right of the Yoast SEO app from 2 PM until 10 PM CET (8 AM until 4 PM EST) on weekdays.

A much awaited app that - sadly - overwrites ALL your manual SEO work automatically without leaving you any manual control. You can't leverage your hand-written efforts (title/metadescription), because the app override everything with its structure. You don't even get questions on what to overwrite and when, it just "handles" it. Probably good if you have no manual SEO efforts, but pointless if you want to automate some and have a hands on approach on some. The other benefits of the app was not tested (schema etc) simply because the app was deleted instantly when realizing there are no manual control (or even a warning the automation overwrite everything). Only upside is that you can revert all automation with a button and luckily, get your manual work back.
Update 27th January, 2022: we just released a fix that should no longer overwrite your already set SEO titles and descriptions. We're also looking into improving the first installation (welcome wizard), giving you more information and control over what our app can do. Original response: I'm sorry to hear about your experience with our app, that shouldn't have happened. We really appreciate you took the time to share your experience with us! I've forwarded the feedback you gave and our team is already investigating ways how we can improve the app! Valuable information to note: By removing our snippet templates (Apps -> Yoast SEO -> Settings -> Content Settings -> Products) you can get your old titles and descriptions back for now. Plus our support team is ready to help out as well!
