Merchants describe this as a fast, professional way to handle customer support that improves the shopping experience and boosts conversions. They like the clean, intuitive interface, deep Shopify integration, and reliable notifications. Real-time chat with rich customer context and organized histories helps manage multiple conversations. The AI agent is praised for accurate, brand‑aligned answers that cut repetitive work, with some calling it a must‑have compared to similar apps.

Customer states: Your web chat window (at least on my system) can't be resized or relocated and it blocks much of the page... I will need to close it in order to see if I can now add that product to my cart.
Thank you for taking the time and sharing this feedback with us. If the customer is using a tablet or phone, then the chat widget could be blocking their cart. However, since the chat can resume the conversation, they can close the chat to complete actions in the store.
On the other hand, if the chat is blocking the product or cart page on the desktop, then you can also adjust the position of the chat widget through the Appearance settings (https://bit.ly/3pFKhsn) on Shopify Inbox. If you need help with this, then we'd be happy to further assist you through live chat, email, or callback. Simply visit the Shopify Help Center (https://bit.ly/2AWw5VA) and log into your account to create a support request. Cheers. -Elias, Shopify Support
This really helps us to be connected with our customers at any time of the day! Our customers seem to like it as well.
Please guys you need to add Whatsapp chat integration into Inbox.
I like the new updates showing customer order details. thanks
Thanks so much for taking the time and writing this review! We're delighted to hear that you like the new update on showing customers' order details. We also understand that you'd like to see a WhatsApp chat integration and we'd be happy to pass your suggestion along to our Development team.
That being said, if you need a chat integration for WhatsApp in the meantime, then we'd recommend trying something like 'WhatsApp app by Super Lemon' (https://bit.ly/3cnd55S). Cheers! -Elias, Shopify Support
I am very satisfied using this app, 100% recommended business running on shopify, Excellent product.
Shopify Inbox is finally getting enough functionality to begin being useful for many merchants. Here's how to get to five stars, Shopify: -Customers need to be able to attach images in chat
-Team members should be able to have internal discussions about a chat that the customer can't see. Our current workaround is to communicate outside of Inbox to discuss issues in Inbox
-Add the ability to turn off 'add to cart' and 'buy now' when inserting Products in chat. We want people to see our subscription options and 'add to cart' and 'buy now' allows the customer to bypass the product view and miss those options
-I dream of Shopify offering a customer Knowledge Base feature for merchants with a nice standardized theme. In addition to having this knowledge base available from store menus, customers can search this knowledge base within the chat client, saving support agents a lot of time. Intercom does this really well
-Chat conversations can be synced to CRM software like Hubspot
-Customers can see the agent's name (or handle) in chats as opposed to the chat always being from "Company Name"
-Agents can upload a profile photo
-Collision avoidance so multiple agents don't accidentally respond to the same chat at the same time. This could be as simple as allowing agents to see when other agents are typing on a chat
-Agents can set their availability to away which will pause audible notifications
-Browser notifications should not show each message from a customer and another agent to all agents. With multiple ongoing conversations, this gets very loud and when an agent is helping a customer, the other agents do not need to see every message sent in those chats
-Just because someone enters their email address on Chat, it doesn't make them a Customer. We define a customer as someone who has made a purchase, so it would be nice to have a separate bucket for these contacts instead of adding them all to the customers list in Shopify. Alternatively, if Customers in Shopify were renamed Contacts, this may make more sense
Thank you so much for taking the time to write your review and to lay out all of your suggestions here. It's greatly appreciated and I can see why all of the recommendations you have made would help make Shopify Inbox an even more useful tool for you and your business.
Merchant feedback plays a big part in how our development team decides how to improve our platform, and this is especially true of our apps and Shopify Inbox in particular. I will be sure to pass all of your suggestions onto our team for their consideration. Thanks again for getting in touch. -Victor, Shopify Support
Really appreciate the time and effort put into making this app. It gives us all the system features that very big companies have.
I use this app to keep up with customer requests for account and delivery information. I like that I can schedule away and online status. I also like the interaction with Shopify for customer information. I have a small business, a "one man show", so having an easy way to talk to customers without having to pick up the phone a huge plus.
I want to like this. It's convenient in a few ways, however, the top of the chat is cut off in desktop mode, meaning customers can't read my greeting message and can't close the chat if they don't know the trick of clicking on the chat circle. I contacted the developer only to be told they know it's an issue but have no correction for it. How they don't have a scrolling option or ability to adjust the height/width of the chat widget is beyond me, especially for such a complex app. I feel as if this should be a foreseen issue on their part. We may go back to using the Tawk App, since we didn't have this issue with that chat app and it's also free.
Thank you for writing your review and for outlining the issues you've experienced with the Shopify Inbox app. I can certainly understand why the problem you've referenced has been a frustration and that you were not provided with a solution when you contacted our support team. I will be sure to pass your comments onto our development team for them to consider, and hopefully this is something we can amend in a future update for the app. -Victor, Shopify Support
Great app! I would give it 5 stars if they had the functionality that let us review customer cart data like LiveChat offers.
Better now - finally has SOME functionality. Are you seriously making my type 100 characters in order to submit a review?
