It just doesn't work properly! We've been battling with the app for a few months, support tried to help but the last time they asked for all sorts of detail and screen videos, we gave up. We've had problems with search and connecting to hardware mainly. Support asked us to make sure we were on Android 12, our fairly new £175 tab isn't on it yet, and there are only a couple of high end tabs on Android 12 on the market so far as we can see. Today I bought a second hand £160 iPad 6 and downloaded the app from the Apple store and everything works! It's amazing, really fast, hooks up to our card reader instantly and search finds results right away. It's a completely different experience. I'm guessing if you are reading this you are installing on Android. My advice is don't bother, buy the most recent iPad you can justify and save yourself a load of grief. When the Android version is as good as the Apple version it will be amazing. Hopefully that will be soon and I won't have wasted money on an Android tablet.

Hi Paul, thanks for your feedback & we are sorry you have had these issues. Signing out & then back in before a register shift may help with the syncing issues between the app & Admin. The POS app runs on Android 7.0 or higher and will connect with card readers that are compatible with Android. Do let us know if we can assist you further.

Overpriced & unreliable Recently having issues with the app not loading & having to reinstall. The card reader regularly won't connect. Takes to long for updates to come through with new features Basic stuff that is included in most pos software is missing & requires additional paid apps. Collection is pro, can't create local delivery orders through the pos. No sell by weight option. Customer loyalty done through other apps. Feels like app developers are more important than actual users

Hello Alex Wightman, thank you for your feedback. Please ensure that you have a strong internet connection, otherwise the reader and the app won't be able to work and stay connected properly. If it is still not working reach out to our Retail Support, we are here 24/7. As for local delivery, I will pass up as a feature request to our developers.

latest update is horrible.. they had fixed my original complaint about the delete cart, but now the buttons at checkout are huge and you have to scroll to choose payment type? can't figure out how to add custom charges/items anymore, and it failed to send a receipt after checkout. I had to go back through to the order and manually resend a few hours later when the customer contacted me. how about no major UI changes without a warning?! I didn't update the app and now it's even harder to us

We appreciate your feedback on the recent update. We're sorry for the inconvenience with the checkout buttons and receipt issue. They shouldn't have changed in size too much, so I would recommend a reinstall of the app to ensure a clean update. For any immediate assistance, please visit help.shopify.com/support. Thank you for your patience.

What's new

- Add product variant tiles and new Analytics, Register, and Scan shortcuts to Smart Grid.
- Recognize more customers automatically when a buyer taps their card: repeat customers will be associated with the order, new customers—when recognized by Shopify—are added as customers after selecting a digital receipt, and buyers with a Shop app profile will get receipts automatically sent to Shop after a one-time consent.
