This is the worst barcode app I have ever experienced, and I have been in retail for 21 years. You cannot put text on any jewelry/barbell label I have to HAND WRITE, all the text because it SAYS there is NO room which is patently a LIE because I CAN hand write the text. Also sometimes the text works on the regular square labels and sometimes it does not. Sometimes the text fits and sometimes the text does not and it is the SAME amount of characters from one label to another! Some times the font size is the same on two labels and will be normal on one and sometimes it is randomly huge on the other. And NOW they think it important to TELL us with huge yellow warning flashing banners when we go to print that the text will NOT fit on the label and I am like YEAH I KNOW! That is why I hand write them and this is also not a feature you can turn off! I have never met such a stupid program in my life!! Come on SHOPIFY what the HELL????? And you wonder at the 2.3 stars!? DUDE! Stop annoying every one and make a proper labeling system even if it is basic. The warning banners are provoking and superfluous! The text limitation has nothing to do with my label printers because I use the same ones I used with Lightspeed and they had no problem printing on the labels.
Can you possibly add support for Avery Presta 94219 or even 69992 (1.5" x 1" label size).
This creates duplicate barcodes across different products.
The recent Retail Barcode Labels update removed our ability to print SKU on Avery 5167 labels. We manufacture hundreds of visually similar products. Printing only barcode and price substantially increases the likelihood of mislabeling inventory. We'd like this functionality restored or our store opted out of the new template restrictions.
Worked better than expected. The reviews, cautions, and compatibility notes made me concerned. However, The ability to filter and select specific products or ANY products to generate barcodes worked well. I didn't have any to start with so overwriting wasn't an issue. The ability to select what will print on each barcode based on the size of the label was helpful and easy to modify and test different templates. Definitely test and learn the character length of product titles, SKUs, and variants for your label size. The app does a decent job at resizing the text to fit the best it can up to a certain point. And I have a Rollo printer that I typically use for 4x6 shipping labels. We purchased 2x1 labels, used the Zebra settings in the app, selected the products we needed barcodes for, and generated a PDF. I printed the PDF using my Rollo thermal printer and they were perfectly aligned every time. I'm glad I didn't need to buy a new label maker. My only wish is that I could change the font (because I'm a designer and we just like to do that). I love that the app is free and ended up being exactly what I needed. We used the labels on the back of custom tags for our in-store merchandise to be sold using the Shopify POS system.
Even though I'm using the same small Dymo template, all of a sudden my barcodes are longer and a different font. This is a major problem as it changes the whole layout of our product. How can I get my normal template back, and how can I speak to someone to help - no links or helpdesk available.
I love this app, however, I am extremely displeased about the current font change. Please change it back ASAP or allow us to choose our own font. I absolutely hate that now all my labels do not match and I am literally given no choice in the matter. Please change it back or allow us to choose our own font STAT.
The app works great but I would like for a specific feature. I would like for the dymo price tags to be editable. I do not want the price to show since my products are dynamic. Please let me edit it please. ``` Dymo - 30299 Price Tag 3/8" x 3/4" - 10mm x 19mm ``` If you give me access to yalls codebase for this app I'll do it myself too for free, just give me this feature for my store. Thank you! - Abraham
