Merchants highlight the AI agent as a major upgrade that syncs with store data to give accurate, brand‑aligned answers and reduce repetitive support. Many report faster responses, better customer experience, and higher conversions, especially with strong FAQs. They value deep store integration, email follow‑up, and mobile access, plus flexible settings for availability and lead capture. Several note reliable performance, improved notifications, and responsive development.

This app is Great! I can track down issues customers are having and stay in touch with them through the process. I do wish that you could program in auto responses. To be able to remind people to request a refund using the Refund link In their Order, rather than having to type it out every time when they aren't seeing that option as the correct way to do it rather than asking in an inbox message.
Thank you for your review! I think our Instant Answers or Quick Replies features could be useful for your problem.
You can create Instant Answers in Inbox settings at admin.shopify.com. These will come up as buttons when the customer clicks on the chat widget and they can click on it to get an instant pre-written response from you automatically.
If you are looking to be able to use pre-written responses during conversations, you can create Quick Replies in your settings at inbox.shopify.com. These allow you to set shortcuts for common responses you type out that you can then access by clicking on the lightning bolt below where you type messages. Hope this helps.

I respond to customers' suggestions, comments and questions in a timely manner. It helps to better understand your target audience.
Would be great if we could start email conversations here from an order page. This would help centralize all communications in one place instead of going to our email client and sometimes having clients sending messages to chat and email.
Other than that it's extremely simple and works well!
It is a fantastic app that has enabled me to answer questions quickly for our customers. The interface is much like texting, and I do truly view it as an asset.
Room for improvement:
- It would be awesome if an audio reply option was added.
- It would be nice if an auto reply feature was enabled, so I could say "Thanks for contacting us! If you don't get a reply right away, we will contact you via email shortly." or something along those lines. We are a small business, and don't have the ability to staff someone to reply immediately around the clock.
- The auto AI response feature is frustrating. Every time I go to respond to a message, it never types the first word correctly because it is trying to come up with an AI response instead. If this feature could be a button to press to generate a response for those who want to use it, instead of it being the default, that would be so much better.
Thank you for your review, your suggestions will be shared with the product team.
I just wanted to let you know that we do have an auto reply feature that may be what you're looking for. You can set it at admin.shopify.com. Select Inbox from the Sales channel list on the left sidebar > Available hours on the left sidebar below Inbox. From there you can set an Automated first reply and have it differ for when you are available vs not.
The AI response feature can also be turned on/off in Inbox settings at inbox.shopify.com under Settings > Message preferences > Automatically generate a reply On/Off.
Hope that helped! Feel free to reach out to us at inbox@shopify.com with any further questions.

A lot of scammers are reaching out through this platform using the shopify inbox as a way to contact the owner of the store. They are offering to assist new stores with "consider implementing the necessary changes to enhance our store's performance and visibility". Here's a concise breakdown of what needs to be addressed:
1. Reactivate and configure the disabled feature to restore full functionality and ensure seamless indexing by search engines.
2. Implement advanced on-page SEO strategies, including metadata optimization and structured data integration, to enhance organic visibility.
3. Generate and submit an updated XML sitemap to Google Search Console, ensuring expedited crawling and indexing of your store’s pages. And other suspicious activities.
This is a ONE STAR review but when I tried to submit one star, it would not submit. I tried over and over again, but it kept rejecting and refusing to submit. So if you see this, know that I only gave it more stars so it would let me submit. I'm telling the truth for others to know. It should have been ONE STAR. I'm taking screenshots of everything to keep as proof.
What it did by refusing to let me submit ONE STAR means that this app that "supposedly" has 5,568 --- 4.7 stars --- is lying to the public because it forces people like me to give higher stars because it won't let us submit ONE star. It would only let me submit after I gave it more stars. So if you don't see one star reviews, it is because this app is lying and misleading Shopify shop owners by forcing reviews to be higher than they are, and its rating really has much lower 4.7 stars at 5,868.
This is my real review:
The app has no info to show me how to see what my customer sees. I can't see what my store's "sender" contact info is, and there is no way to find it or adjust it in any settings. And most of all, the app says my customer has no orders, but they DO have orders. There is also no help or support for it either. If you really care, email me to help me with a solution and stop preventing reviewers from leaving honest reviews with truthful feedback. Fix your app instead!
Its great except if you have a customer service agent or another email for support questions you cant use this app. It will only send to the store owners email. They really need to change this - most store owners are doing their own support or have a different email even if they are and cant change their stores email to the support email for security reasons.
At least this app works for what it's supposed to. My experience with add on apps to Shopify has been pretty dismal. This app works and puts important messages right in your store where they need to be.
I do not recommend - We have been getting explicit videos for a week on this app, and there is no way to block people via IP or other means, or a way to prevent people from uploading files. This individual just uses fake emails and floods our inbox. Like usual, Shopify support is not helpful. Exploring other apps.
We recently started using this Shopify chat app, and it has been a game-changer for our store! The integration with Shopify's backend is absolutely flawless, making it incredibly easy to manage customer interactions directly from our admin dashboard.
The app's user interface is clean and intuitive, allowing our team to respond to customer queries in real time without needing to switch between platforms. Features like automated responses and quick replies save us so much time, and the chat history being synced with Shopify orders helps us provide personalized support effortlessly.
It has significantly improved our customer communication and even boosted our conversion rates. Highly recommended for any Shopify store owner looking for a reliable and efficient chat solution!
