You cannot change the "Chat with Us" title on the app, please help with this.
Also if you can add a picture circle option so that when visitors open the chat they can see who they are speaking to, it would make communication much more personal. The option to add a circle picture would be incredible and I'll change my review.
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback.
We have actually added the chat avatar feature you suggested to help make communication more personal.
You can enable and manage your avatar at inbox.shopify.com under Settings > Message preferences > Avatar.
After selecting "Use admin profile picture", the picture will appear in the circle in the chat as you have described.
You also should be able to change the title and icon of the chat widget. From your shop's admin at admin.shopify.com, select Inbox under "Sales channels". Clicking the "Customize chat" button will take you to an editor in which you can modify the colors, icon, wording, positioning, and greeting message of the chat widget.
For the text, we have preset options as well as the option to remove the text and just have an icon. Please feel free to reach out to us at inbox@shopify.com for further assistance with either of these features. Thanks!

I love Shopify Inbox for our business. It's great for chatting with our customers in real time. The app shows FAQs to the customers, and we can use quick answers for the most common ones.
The only improvement is to show the chat unavailable when customers are reaching out outside business hours. Today, there is no difference.
There's no way to restrict notifications from reaching you at all hours! Even if you set the times the chat is "available" you still get a notification on the app every single time a customer messages no matter the time. This is a basic feature they should have.
Thanks for sharing your feedback, we understand that this would be frustrating and have shared it with our product team.
Currently we do not have a way to restrict notifications during certain hours within our app. A solution for the time being could be to snooze notifications on your device during your unavailable hours. On iOS this is set under the "Focus" settings (i.e. you can silence the Inbox app specifically during certain hours). On Android this should be called "notification snoozing".
Hope that helps! Feel free to reach out to us at inbox@shopify.com with any further questions.

The one thing you REALLY need to add is the ability to put links in quick replies. We have to cut and paste the same links 20-30 times per day and it's frustrating.
Otherwise, it's great!
We use it because it comes with Shopify plus. It's very basic by comparison to LiveChat. It works fine as a starter conversation with customers, however does not provide near the information for the client as LiveChat did.
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We would love to hear more about the features that are missing and additional information we can work on providing in the app. Please feel free to reach out to us at inbox@shopify.com.

Have looked at other chat apps and they all wanted a monthly fee for something that is super basic. This is all we needed and it works great for our seasonal business.
A great way to touch base with customers who have a question before checkout, while they are still in the process. Sometimes the questions are things that they could have just figured out on their own by looking first (ie is it in stock? where are you located? do you have xxx?), but if they need their hand held, this is a good app.
This app has been very helpful for the customers wanting to reach out directly through chat vs an email or phone call. I've been using it for a few years now and I would recommend it.
Very good for quick replies to customers. It does have small issues with offline / online status changes but thats minor.
It has worked very well. Honestly made the customer service job so much easier for me! The only thing I wish it offered is a way to link the chat to help direct customers to it.
