Great time saver

Not working on apple phone

By voala on May 22, 2024

Working kind of fine on dekstop. Horrible user interface.

Not working at all on tablet or phone. We tried to use it for a fast food ordering business, and wanted to play a sound everytime a order came in. Nothing. No settings fixed the notification. It just does not play any sound. Tried with all browsers I could think of.

We have the PRO version.

Update: Plugin is working fine

By miky990t on February 12, 2024

My apology for the previous review. The plugin's working great. There was a conflict with another plugin made it stop working.

Sadly doesn't work

By vampyris on February 8, 2024

Unfortunately this plugin doesn't work, I tested this on a basic WooCommerce installation so I don't think it's a plugin or theme conflict. Too bad, because it's a good idea in theory. Hopefully a future version will fix this issue.,

Doesn't work

By hjmeyer on November 30, 2023

No way to get this plugin running. No sound upload possible. Documention link dead. Zeitverschwendung!

Works but need to keep it always on play : No option for that

By ammas on October 13, 2023

wanted a feature where i can keep it on & work around the woocommerce as soon as i get back to notifier it closes need to keep the tab on : Same with the pro version ?? too i guess

Works ok, but always ask for premium

By laaskq on July 19, 2022

Works ok, but always ask for premium. If you click on X box to close, it appears again, forcing you to buy it
