Just changing a bit my first review.
I bought all the "app makers" that appeared here on AppSumo. Refunded them all, mostly because they would not work for the brazilian market. They would not calculate the shipping costs, not integrate payments that would need the "CPF" (something like the brazilian security number) ... or just had a bad translation or no translation at all to brazilian portuguese, and when asked, I would get back an answer about how much more I had to pay to have it translated.
Here I am very suprised to see that the checkout with PayPal and shipping (Correios, SEDEX, PAC) are working even in the test mode. It does not support payment plugins like PagSeguro or Mercado Pago, but supports PayPal (in the test mode, not "transparent", it sends the user to the PayPal app/site).
It is not so nice that in the Wire option, the bank data will not appear to the customer on the screen. It will be sent per email. The brazilian market has something named PIX, and to have it coming right after the buying would make it easier for them.
They have something I really like: the possibility to add your translation for the buttons on the app. I did it. Unfortunatelly it changed nothing on the test app. But they already said it will change on the "live" app. =)
The option to add a banner for products from some category or that are in sale is very good. Loved it!
:heavy_minus_sign: I am testing a WooCommerce site that has also a blog. Unfortunatelly I can only add the blog as a link to a webpage, and then it shows all the menu and cart from the site. And here gets a bit confusing for the client: the cart is not the same as in the app. If you added something, it will show empty. The menu is also not the same and the "app menu" at the bottom then disappears.
Here, I understand the "cookie" problem, but maybe would be nice to have a "two in one" app, blog + woocommerce? I would not mind if it would count as two apps, even being one APK.
:heavy_minus_sign: Some scripts like the newsletter pop up or "call us on whatsapp" do not work. VERY Happy to see it in the roadmap.
And I just saw that the notifications to users is something very easy, made from their site. If you need other users to do it, can be a problem, but I am the only one using the system, so, for me, really nice option!
I've been searching a solution for a very long time, since I bought one app here that NEVER worked and even changed the plans that AppSumo users would not profit from the new roadmap...
But I tell you: buy this! The support is amazing, and they will even PUBLISH your app for you!! Just for this alone, I would give 10 tacos.
