Shopify App founders: what made you uninstall an app immediately?
I’m curious about this from both sides.
There are apps with great reviews, decent UI and thousands of installs that I’ll still uninstall after 5 minutes.
For me, the biggest red flags are:
- Asking for way too many permissions
- Forcing me through a long onboarding before I can see the product
- “Free trial” that immediately asks for billing details
- Installing the app and then realizing half the features require another paid app
- No clear explanation of what the app actually does
- Slowing down the Shopify admin/store
- Support taking days to answer a simple question
