What merchants think

Feedback submitted

Merchants describe this as a reliable, full‑featured translation solution with standout, technically skilled support that often adjusts theme code and fixes issues quickly, even off‑hours. They use it to run fully multilingual stores from a single account, praising strong Shopify integration, V2’s speed and stability, accurate auto‑translation plus detailed manual control, and a customizable language switcher. Many long‑term merchants call it a must‑have for professional multi‑language stores.

We use Langify for our online store that targets EU. Because if EU Google regulations you must have language specific sub-pages, therefore we were searching to a reliable translation app.
1. Translation takes time (mostly must be done manually) but at the end you get accurate translation.
2. Support is fast and good. We had issue you translating the language created by other apps incorporated with the site and Langify team provided good support.
3. Price is reasonable for the level of customer service and additional revenue you get from the language-specific sub-sites.

Of equal and outstanding measure is where both the software and the service is classed when it comes to langify. Johannes is tremendously attentive and quickly solved any tweaks that needed to be made to our site. We have effortless turned our English only site to a multilingual (now English, French and Spanish) and multi regional resource for our company. I highly recommend using this app and feel absolutely confident having Johannes by your side to ensure a positive outcome.

It is very useful and rigorous, no auto translate, but all the factors from your shop are able to be translated, with the help of to show different language with different domains, you are able to build as many shops as you want.
The translation is a heavy job, but it worth to do. and the customer service from langify is always under service for you, quick response and solved all the problems efficently
I recommend it for every seller who have a world wide market.
At last, my conclusion is, it is a rigorous and wonderful app, high quality cause it is made in Germany. Vielen Dank ~

We started using this app for the bilingual storefront (EN/LT), and we are quite happy with the performance, Langify V2 is clear and easy to use. The Custom content translations section is very beneficial for the third-party apps' content translations.
What we really are missing in comparison with the Langify V1, is the possibility to have different languages on different domains - Langify does not offer this feature any longer as per the new Shopify API.
The support team is very helpful and responsive, so I hope we will be using this app successfully in the future, will only probably need some language picker customizations.

I've used Langify on 3 Shopify projects so far. It is an absolute must-have if you want to run a multi-language store since Shopify isn't built for that.

While the app itself is sometimes hard to use, especially if you have a lot of data, the developper makes up for it with very well made guides and an incredible support team. Most requests are answered within the hour and the team is always ready to help you edit your theme if needed.

One of the solution we found to manage the product data was to install the Metafield2 app. It integrates well with Langify product data and lets you export and import the same metafields that are used in Langify. So you get a nice data sheet to work with.

It's with deep sadness that I write this review having been a customer for many years.
Please don't install this app until the developer fixes this one major issue. You can not filter archived or draft products. Instead, you have to pay for words you are not going to use costing you $10,000's in our case.

Their non-existent timeline to fix this is infuriating and shows how little they care for their customers.

AVOID THIS APP.

"Unfortunately, I'm sorry to say this is not possible at the moment because a feature to filter products (and include/exclude them from the translations) according to their status is not currently available. Our developers are aware of this and they are already considering including this feature in a future update, but we don't have any approx release date for this at the moment."

If I could have rated this app with 6 stars, I would have done it. The app is absolutely perfect, so simple to use and logically laid out. And the support from these guys is nothing short of outstanding. I have never had customer support like it, they went above and beyond the call of duty, even while I was on the 7-day trial version and hadn't paid them a cent. Francesco, Wolf, Vera & Sabrina - these guys have built something every one selling in multinational and multilingual markets should have on their site. They even customised my language switcher for me and made some code changes that made my site look great. No wonder they have so many good reviews, when I read them before deciding on Langify, I was hoping they were genuine and I can testify that they are. Buy this app, you won't regret it, it's worth every last cent.

I was unhappy with langify three years ago and then uninstalled it within the trial period. This time we're really in need of a second language to serve our growing base of Chinese customers, so I did some in deep research to find the app to fit our need. Quite a bit of languages apps that are simply use Google Translator to do the job, but langify works differently comparing to others. Since the Chinese language is more complicated than other languages and GT never done a good job. So, I decided to give a second try to langify. Despite that langify is not perfect, but the customer team, especially Vera, is there to fix all your issue. I'm very happy about the results and langify is definitively highly recommended to anyone who want their websites work and keep a professional look. Thank you to Vera and langify. JC @ wginseng.com

I did a lot of research in all the options available regarding translation and this seemed the one which people were talking best things about. Indeed, the app installs smoothly and the whole translation process is straightforward for text and for images in case you have to translate any visual content. The rest of the reviews here mentioned a lot about the good support and it wasn't any different with me. Johannes support is top notch, he not only provided the help we needed but also gave some advice outside what he was supposed to. On top of that, the speed of his support was highly above the average development support I had in many years working in the industry (agency and client side) which helped a lot due to a tight deadline we had to have the whole content translated. I really think it couldn't have been a better experience!!

Update: The support team reached out quickly and helped resolve the issue. They were very knowledgeable. I still think setup, onboarding process, and compatibility with shopify markets could be improved-no shop owner should have his store go down for a whole day as soon as an app is installed. But I do appreciate that they are able to fix issues quickly. Still need to push translations live before I can make a definitive conclusion about this app. __________________________
Original:
Made my site go down for a whole day. After I installed it, any link on my site directed to this subfolder with a 404 error: /eg-en/eg-en//eg-en/eg-en//eg-en/eg-en//eg-en/eg-en//eg-en/eg-en/ After I deleted the app, the problem went away. In addition, the app loads a bit slowly and certain editing certain categories such as metafields will freeze the app.
