What merchants think

Feedback submitted

Merchants say this app is highly useful for launching and growing stores. It’s described as easy to install, with quick, reliable syncing to Google Merchant Center, Ads, Analytics, and YouTube—even for large catalogs. Many highlight time saved on feed management and ad setup, better visibility and organic traffic, and clearer performance tracking. Some report strong results when pairing it with Google AI and Shopify Sidekick.

Bring back the old app please!!!!!!!
The old app worked a treat. However, this app is shocking and affecting my business dramatically only displays prices with VAT on my google feed, resulting in mismatch and me being unable to sell products on google shopping. Despite ringing google and shopify getting no where quick. Now looking for other apps to use. shame as the original worked fine for years. If anyone knows how to reinstall the original app version please let me know

Not a Plug and Play App...was expecting this to work out of the box. Come on Shopify, you can do better!

Terrible. Old version worked fine, but I was forced to uninstall the old one to install the "new and improved" version. Now, it doesn't work at all and no way to revert back.

DONT DO IT! Does not work + TEMPORARILY CRASHED OUR SITE WHEN UNINSTALLING. You would think that a Shopify app would be vetted right? Really if you are going to put your name on something you should make sure it works,

Incredibly basic. Learn to use the Googles Ads interface or hire someone. It's amazing that this is the best that Shopify can provide.

I never got this to work properly. Data is pulled with wrong information causing Google do disapprove all of my products. Waste of time.

This application has been the most frustrating experience I've ever had. You're much better off with a manual feed. Products take 15+ days to approve, the interface is terrible, not very compatible with merchant center (products show pending in shopify but not in merchant center) and the best part is that neither google or shopify have any insight on how to resolve any errors that come up. After two months of trying, I deleted this app. Save yourself the time and don't use this.

Thanks for taking the time to share this feedback about the Google Shopping app! If you see that your products are approved in your Google Merchant Center but still showing as pending within the Google Shopping app, that is a great time to contact Shopify Support as our technical team can apply a manual sync to resolve the issue.
