Update causing issues
I have just updated and since then my pos keeps locking up, needing to lodged in, won’t log in, and prints 3x receipts every time. I have done the adjustment’s suggested but we are still having issues
Developer Response ,
Hi Runway 87, thank your feedback. Our latest POS update 7.0.3 is now available with many fixes applied to address issues raised since our recent optimisation of the app . Can you please update your app and reach out to us at support if you have any further issues
What a rip off this is now. So unhappy
Massivley disappointed in this new upgrade. Unless we fork put a small fortune each month x several locations, all the features we had previously have now been removed. We already pay a lot of money to shopify and now on top of that they want USD $90 per month, per location, to access the features we’ve already had for years? So unimpressed. Now is not the time to be doing something like this to merchants that were relying on the POS to keep our businesses running! The layout is also awful. Big thumbs DOWN from us!
And in response to the comment left by Shopify, I think you guys are seriously out of touch with your customers. This basic LITE version doesn’t even have an ability to exchange?! For an instore POS system, you have to go through a crazy process of doing a refund, emailing the customer a gift card, waiting till that comes through on their phone (if they have it with them), using the gift card to credit the balance. Have you ever experienced that process yourselves in store as either a retailer or a consumer? It’s insane.
Thank you for the suggestion of contacting your support. I did that, and then waited 9 days for a response. If I could give this review negative stars I would do so!
Developer Response ,
Thank you for providing this feedback! POS Classic had required all businesses be on the Shopify Plan or higher in order to access the full suite of features it had to offer but with this newly built app, anyone, on any plan can use all hardware that connects with the POS whether they choose the Lite or the Pro subscriptions. As for the App layout, it is customizable using the tiles on the home screen(s) to set up the app for your business' unique needs. Should you wish to discuss further with one of our Retail Specialists, please contact us by going to ≡ > Support > Send an email / Give us a call or you may reach out to chat via https://help.shopify.com/en/questions#/questions
Extortion
I used to love shopify. Over time I’ve realised I’ve invested so much time in to this system that I’ve made myself vulnerable to their ad-hoc changes and price hikes. You cannot trust that the features you have today will be there tomorrow. Or, if the features you need will be moved beyond a paywall that is more than 100% higher than your current costs. Basically, you can’t trust them to have your back.
Don’t get this point of sale program if you’re a new business, small business, or start-up. Don’t get this system ESPECIALLY if you’re a single store brick-and-mortar. The basic features you need are not there (being able to save a cart or make an exchange). The basic features are behind the much more expensive tier of pricing.
Shopify leave out key functions and then advise you to purchase (subscribe) to third party apps to bring those functions in. So, the actual cost of a working system is FAR HIGHER THAN YOU THINK.
Just, don’t do it.

Hello there. Thanks for reaching out with this feedback. It's true that the POS Pro model allows for Exchanges, though it's worth mentioning that the alternative of issuing refunds to store credit under digital gift card codes remains fully available on the free POS Lite model, as do many more of the basic features. Saving carts, on the other hand, was previously paid under the $79/month Shopify plan, and is now paid for under Pro - so it's worth clarifying that it was never a basic free feature of the app, but rather it's just been moved to a different sort of paid model. More information on what is available on the free POS Lite vs POS Pro can be viewed here: https://www.shopify.com/pos/feature-sheet, and elements previously covered under the $79 Shopify plan or higher that are now moved to Pro can be reviewed here: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/sell-in-person/pos-classic/shopify-for-retail
