Foreign categories and forced sales. I’ve been selling jewelry on here for 13 years and know the listing process damned well. Suddenly I’m being given foreign language listing options with no way to change them. All I want to do is list a few handcrafted beaded dangle earrings and I have no option to do this. I hit drop or dangle and get terminology for Indian jewelry that doesn’t apply to me and no way to correct it. I am also done with being forced to run a sale at a high percentage point in order to “participate” in the holiday sales. You already take WAY too much in fees I can’t afford to run. 20% off sale on top of it! It’s not fair how you treat us. All started with the forced free shipping which I’ve since had to end because again, I can’t afford it! As others have said, it takes nothing to lose a listing while typing. It takes me a good hour to do one since they keep getting wiped out. I even copied the listing just in case it happened and there is no option now to paste it in line there used to be! You would think with the fees they are charging us they’d actually do something to LISTEN to their sellers! 11 years on this site and right now I’m just trying to get through the holiday season. Etsy has forgotten that it’s the sellers that make their site what it is and yet we are continually left behind. Fees, unusable app, poor seller support...what happened to the supportive community I signed up with?

Etsy doesn’t care about its Sellers. I had over 2,500 in sales.. almost close to 3,000 when they decided to shut me down due to one dispute that a buyer escalated and without any warning they shut down my store. Their customer service are literally robots and you cannot get through to an actual person regarding any of the matters that other sellers have. Their response rate.. 2-3 days. WHY DOES IT HAVE TO TAKE THAT LONG TO REACH THEM?? If I am able to respond within 1 day to my buyers then I’m not sure why they’re not able to respond within the same time frame since they are such a big corporation that apparently hires thousands of employees. I don’t believe they care about their sellers and that is why so many has moved to Shopify. Expect to pay almost close to $300 for every $1000 you make. In my opinion, not worth the headache. You don’t want to stay with Etsy for too long. My tip, once you start out on etsy you should look into avenues on marketing yourself AWAY from etsy.

Slow with annoying glitches and changes. I used to love using the app, but recent changes are annoying and time consuming. First of all, the app runs SO slow. When I enter my shop and try to search for listings, it takes 20+ seconds for my listings to load, another 20+ seconds for my keyboard to even show up, then another 20+ seconds for the search to occur. Ridiculous. Secondly, words get broken up within a conversation when it is sent. It will be typed perfectly prior to sending, but once it is sent to the customer, it chops up the words incorrectly and creates spaces where there shouldn’t be. Not only does it make it hard to read, it also looks unprofessional on my part. The other update that is very annoying is that when a customer contacts me with a link to a particular listing to ask a question about it, it used to open that listing within the app so that I could see which one the customer was referring to. With the latest update, it opens the listing in a web browser instead, which meansq I then have to sign into Etsy on the web. An unnecessary step that wastes my time. Lastly, other changes within Etsy have SIGNIFICANTLY decreased my total views of my items and therefore sales....by 59 PERCENT!!! What an absurd drop in views & sales in my shop. After 4.5 very successful years of selling on Etsy, I’m seriously considering changing selling platforms. Pretty unhappy with the current app.

Selling on Etsy is the BEST. I started my Etsy bookshop Sempere Books 8 months ago, May 2021, and within the first month I was making nearly a sale a day! It’s easy to use, and Etsy will help you with anything you need along the way. I expected my shop to take a while to be sustainable on its own, but within 3 months of being open I was able to quit my day job and run my business full time. I’ve been a social media manager for multiple brands and companies before and I have to say Etsy Ads is possibly the most rewarding way to advertise online. They target your precise market so you’re not overspending your budget. Proud to be a Star Seller to start off 2022, and can’t wait to see what Etsy has in store for this new year!

Apps are supposed to be convenient!. Am I the only person who despises this app? It’s honestly so bad that I hate the thoughts of listing something. First of all, (with the iPhone X at least) it can be ridiculously easy to just swipe off of a listing that you’re working on. So, basically, after spending what feels like forever jumping through the hoops to create one — titles, pics, description, variations, etc. — it’s gone. Just gone, after all that time and effort. Why can’t there be a “Are you sure you want to leave this listing?” or “Would you like to save this listing as a draft?” or some other option that MAKES SENSE. Instead, there’s nothing. You accidentally slide your finger too far across your screen, then you just have to start over. WHICH takes a lot of time and work considering (my next point) that there isn’t an option to save variations to use on future listings. PLEASE consider those of us who do custom clothing. Gildan, Comfort Colors, etc. have A LOT of color options to choose from. I WANT to give my customers options, but I don’t feel like it when I have to manually type in 30+ colors every time I post a different design. It’s 2020. Etsy has been a thing for years now. Why isn’t this figured out already? Even if this is different on a desktop or laptop, it’s just not as convenient. That’s the point of an app. I’m glad to be able to work (mostly) from the app, but I really just wish it was better.

Needs improvements!. I use this app on a daily basis to run my business. There are many issues though. First, it’s very slow. It can take up to a minute to load a listing. Second, some of the features just don’t work! For example, if I want to link photos to my listing through the app it does nothing..... I have to go to the website to do this. Also I have a suggested “attribute “ on my dashboard for a listing that no longer exists! And I can’t for the life of me get it to go away! Third, some days I can even upload photos. I like to use the app to load photos because it’s more convenient.... but it would be nice to have the app do the same tasks as the site. The app developers definitely need to update the app and work out these issues. Since Etsy has decided to add additional fees on to shipping, listings, and selling, they should be able to fix the issues in the app to support us as sellers!

Sad this is going away. I’m afraid Etsy has fallen victim to the sunk cost fallacy with their new “Etsy Seller” app that is set to replace this one. Most real users of the app have recognized that the new app is inferior, yet Etsy has apparently dumped too much money into it at this point to scrap it as they should. This existing app is far superior in both UX and functionality. The new one feels like it was made by one of those app companies using drag and drop templates to build apps for companies that don’t have funds to hire a real developer team. I can only hope that someone at Etsy will have the guts to admit the new app is a failure, then either pull the plug or completely overhaul it with a more experienced team of developers.

Awesome for Sellers!. It’s missing some things you need to do on the desktop or safari version, but it’s awesome!!! I love the stats, views, faves, it shows. I also like that it gives you tips and tricks to build your Etsy business. It’s really cool that they are making sure that your business thrives in as many ways as possible. It has some glitches on the phone- like the “variations.” If you “copy” an item for making a similar listing pastor, it is hard to change the variations without the app freezing. So the only way I have found around that without losing all my work on the listing is making sure I complete all of the other information on the new listing (that I copied) and “saving it as a draft.” Then I go back into that listing and delete that old variation and create a new variation, just a heads up.

Building up still and getting better!!. I Can’t lie, I didn’t know what to expect from Etsy in the beginning. It took a little bit of adjustment on my post, quality and way I do my things to make it start working here on the app such as completing as much info as possible to get your posts more noticed by the general public. At first I posted a few and than I started gaining momentum and now I get a order very often and it’s money I didn’t have before that I made show up, so I’m satisfied to keep my brain going by staying motivated with ideas and now that I’ve been on the app for about a year now, I can say I’ve definitely got to thank Etsy for getting me some sales for my sticker/ decal business. Give it a try if you haven’t, just be you!

This is no surprise I’m sure. As I just read in another review but I feel the need to reiterate just how awful this app is. How easily you can lose a listing by simply swiping your finger too far off your screen is a devastating feeling it takes so much energy from me personally to create a single listing because every single time this happens. Also during the uploading process, sometimes it doesn’t quite make it and it just disappeared it’s gone. It should have an automatically save progress function. that once you start a listing it should all immediately become a draft if you were to accidentally exit that window. All listings, from the start of its creation should have its progress automatically saved as a draft until completed and published!!! Multiple drafts should be available to use at same times. Change the exit form for listing page.

Deactivated Items seem Targeted. I’ve been selling Keychains that are from molds that were advertised as for protection, like the animal shaped safety Keychains or resin knuckles I turn into Keychains. While I am aware of the policies of selling these types of items and will work around my deactivations, I can't help but feel my shop has been targeted. 11 of my listings have been deactivated in total over only three months of my shop being open, while I see several other stores that also ship out of California, a state where knuckles of any material and used for violence are considered knuckle busters and are illegal, that have hundreds of sales of not only knuckles made of actual metal but knuckles of all materials, shapes, and sizes. I would just like to understand how I can sell my accessories without being targeted, or how these other sellers that seem to be ignoring Etsy policy in my same state can get away with making hundreds of sales while I struggle to make a few. Not to mention, when I tried to contact Etsy to make an appeal, the site refused to send my filled in appeal, let alone let me see the entire page form. It just seems that if my store items keep getting repeatedly deactivated by Etsy, other stores also in CA that have made hundreds of sales with items that are more culpable of disobeying website policy should also be discouraged as often as someone like me who has made less than 30 sales total.

Will not use again. I was recommended to use Etsy early 2020 when making my resin items that I could sell and keep my family afloat during the pandemic. Not only do my items keep getting shut down when nothing is going against their guidelines, but they’re taken down every time I get a sale. Starting out I saw 100s of other shops with similar items I have and words against their policy but theirs won’t get taken down. New sellers and small shops are being taken down and banned for doing things that aren’t against their policy while big companies are thriving. I’m a teenager trying to make a living, and with every order I get, it seems I keep getting pushed down and potentially banned. Another note, Etsy will not let me get my money from my account despite letting me get my deposits from older orders. If you even want to talk with customer support, they will not call back and won’t take calls if you can even find their number. (which is no where on their Etsy sell app)

Do not Buy or Sell on Etsy. I was a constant buyer on Etsy prior to my experience. I always urged people to buy from local shops on Etsy. However, over a week ago, I decided to open my own shop on Etsy Sell. After a week of using it, 8 listings, 3 sales, and 5-star reviews, my account was described with no warning or reasoning. I contacted Etsy Support twice. They said “ After reviewing your Etsy account, I can see that you have been REFUSED SERVICE. We would appreciate your cooperation with ceasing all contact with Etsy as it has been determined that our business relationship has ended. For that reason, we’ll need to end this chat.” Etsy support then hung up on me. I will never use etsy again and will HIGHLY DISCOURAGE anyone to ever buy from them again. This company IS A SCAM AND DO NOT TRUST THEM WITH YOUR INFORMATION. After this, I have now had charged to my bank account by Etsy. Even though, I paid for all of my fees and owe them nothing. If anything, they owe me a refund for the listings I paid for that were then deactivated.

Etsy Support. The etsy app overall is decent. It is user friendly but has significant issues with sign ins and partially added features. The issues that I have had are with etsy support. After about 2000 hours spent working on up keeping an etsy shop, hundreds of sales, no unhappy customers, and no cases against my shop I was suspended and banned from etsy with no warnings. I was banned because they found a connection from my account to another account that I have had ZERO involvement with. When I noticed that my account was suspended I immediately reached out to etsy regarding the issue, and assumed that it was just a small issue that I could work with them on to fix. In response, Etsy support let me know that they are very careful with making decisions, and that there wasn’t anything that I could do about it. Additionally, I was told that any etsy accounts that I attempt to create in the future will be immediately closed without warning. Finally, Etsy support said that if I am to reach out to them again regarding the issue that they will be unable to respond. (That they will ignore me). This leaves me heavily dissatisfied with Etsy Support and Many Parts of Etsy’s systems. I have never in my life left a negative review on any service or product, however, I feel strongly that these actions deserve at the least a negative review.

Lag and slow. It's nice to have this app so that you can upload directly from your phone. The problem is it doesn't works as it should be. First it is so slow like a slot. Scrolling down lag. And I can't even find my saved listing. It's quite annoying when you scroll down to check all listings because is lags so bad that I wanted to just smashed my phone. Not being a dik here but really it is that annoying. So I have to open computer and upload. Please make this app faster. I have super fast internet not a slot internet so.. This app would be really helpful for us seller. Snap a pics upload with your phone. All the updates never fix this problem. It's been happening since day one. Never better. Bug fix? What bug? Yes I am very upset at this right now as I write. ***************************************** Second review : the update didn't do anything. Slightly faster but now it kept crashing.I was trying to upload my listing and it kept crashing like 3 times. Need more improvement.I was able to upload 7 listing then I gave up. Its quite annoying. Still 2 star.

Great, but please change the draft page. My only issue with the app at the moment is that the draft page for an item can be “closed” by swiping downwards - and it doesn’t save any changes. No matter how hard I try, I keep accidentally swiping down and having to completely restart listings. No other platforms’ apps that I use — eBay, Depop, Facebook — design the drafts page with this sort of flimsiness. I like being able to create listings from my phone and would prefer not to use my laptop. Seems like this should be an easy fix for a dumb issue. 👍 Also, please optimize UX on the draft’s “add tags” page by keeping the keyboard up, rather than closing it, after each tag is added. Otherwise I have to tap back again on the keyboard 13 times for each listing, which is functionally counterintuitive to the page’s entire point of adding multiple tags 😐

Useless For Listing Items. A seller app should have streamlined listing capability. It should make it hard to screw up listing features. It should not make listing items more aggravating, hair-pulling and overall frustrating because the listing you spent valuable time on vanishes if you accidentally swipe up or down. However, if you love to rage quit, then this is the app for you! In total, so far I have lost 100’s of listings I was working on due to that poorly vetted crank of a concept. Why would anyone want to swipe away listings they are working on as a feature??! What genius thought that up? Little too much time on tinder, there, big chungus. And don’t even get me started on how wonky adding photos into listings is. You can only add all photos needed once, meaning add as many photos as you plan to use in one shot or forever keep your silence. Otherwise, for every new listing you create, you have to close then restart the app just to add more photos. Divorce is easier to navigate then this sorry excuse for a seller centric app. The chat feature reloads every time you get a new message so if you are attempting to hold a conversation, type fast or, just like the listing feature, everything you were working on vanishes. Overall, this doesn’t even deserve one tenth of a star. If we are awarding stars for poorly thought-out features and sadistic design, then I give it a galaxy full of stars.

Etsy Doesn’t Care About It’s Sellers. I was a seller on Etsy from October 2020 to April 2021. I was nearly at 1000 sales when suddenly Etsy suspended my shop saying that my handmade items were not handmade, and only sent me automatic responses to all of my messages. I started Etsy because I couldn’t work anymore since I’m high risk to COVID, and Etsy really just discarded me like I was nothing. Now it’s June and I’m not going to be able to have anywhere to live when my lease is up in July. My items were in fact handmade, not trademarked, not copyrighted, and not commercially sold. It really hurts that a platform that claims to be all about inclusivity, individuality, respect, and integrity isn’t all that it was advertised. When your shop shuts down and you email them you will be met with a automatic response. When you message them about that you will then be met with another automated response. After the second one you’ll be met with a person that tells you to send them information about your shop, and after you send that you’ll be met with another automatic response instead of them reviewing and acknowledging anything that you’re saying. If you don’t believe this warning, that’s fine. But when it happens to you just like it happened to me and thousands of others... you’ll be just as frustrated.

Horrible navigation. Maybe this is just me, but navigating this app is so frustrating that it made me consider relocating my stuff to another site entirely. The navigation makes no sense to me, I’m always struggling to find something. In order to reactivate inactive listings, the only way I could seem to find the listings was via my sale history, because the listings tab was totally blank. Inactive products (which at the time was all of them) couldn’t be found anywhere until I went to the order history. Eventually I realized that when you go to Listings you can switch the filters to include all listings instead of just the active ones, but the filters menu just flat out did not work at all. Only after closing and reopening the app repeatedly could I even see that the filters were working, but it still wouldn’t respond visually. Tapping a filter would appear to do nothing but closing the filters tab would show whatever you had done actually went through. I could go on and on. The app looks fine and I don’t have any issues with the shopping app, but the seller app? Navigating it is more disorienting, inconsistent and unreliable than probably any app I’ve ever used. This has been the case with both the iphone 12 and the 13 mini. Etsy- Please, redesign the flow of the app and bug test it as much as humanly possible.

WORST COSTUMER SERVICE. If I would give this app no stars, BELIEVE ME, I would. Not even a WEEK into having my shop open, I get locked out of my account. I go to see what is the problem and it shows that I was suspended. I called Etsy support and not even the lady on the phone knew why I was suspended. I later got an email saying that I was HIGH RISK and they were “unable to respond to any further outreach about your account”. In this email they did not state WHY I was suspended which is what made me even more furious. On top of that they demanded me to not ask any questions. How am I supposed to not ask any questions if I don’t even know why I’m suspended and they don’t tell me why either? Their tonality in the email was so rude even if they fixed I would not want to work with them again. If they responded to me in a kinder way, I would consider opening my shop back up. All I’m selling are wire wrapped rings and they treat me like I’m some kinda of criminal? This is disgusting and absolutely UNFAIR. This is the LAST TIME I will be buying or selling on Etsy.

Too Buggy to be Helpful. At first this app was convenient because I take product photos with my phone, so creating listings in the app without having to deal with the cloud or whatever for photos was great. But this app has too many bugs with adding photos now to be worth it. Multiple times this week I have tried to add new listings to try to build momentum (baby Etsy seller, baby handmade seller period) and actually make some sales with Cyber Week promos, a social media follower coupon, all that jazz. But when I try to upload photos of my items, the app freezes and I have to completely close it and start it over. Again. And again. And again. And maybe I’ll get one or two listings done if I’m lucky before the problem starts again. So now I’m going to have to go to the desktop to create all my listings. I’m so aggravated that I’m seriously rethinking using Etsy as a platform period. The listing process is cumbersome and time consuming already without these issues. I’ve been promising new listings on social media for the sale and now I’m having to delay things because I can’t get things listed from the app and have to navigate photo transfers. Not good for my morale as a new seller and not good for my tiny infant shop. And yes, if you’ve made it this far reading through my rant, I do have the latest version of the app and my phone’s software.

Go back to the old payment system!. I Used to love selling on Etsy, I opened my shop a little over a year ago and while i don’t get a lot of orders I feel like my shop is successful, I get great reviews and haven’t gotten anything other then five stars. But then they changed how payments work just before Christmas. pay off the fees once a month and buy postage out of pocket which wasn’t a big deal, I would pay under $4 in fees a month and $2.75 for postage. I preferred it that was so I could get my entire payment from my very inexpensive product. The new system withholds the money from my orders and then subtracts the fees and postage from that money until I can get it into my bank account (it will only deposit money on business days). I tried to see if i could pay for postage at the time of purchase like i used to, but they have no option for that anymore, instead the fees sit in your payment waiting to either be paid off at the end of the month or for you to get another order so it can take a large amount of that money. I’m not making any money off of my product because they keep subtracting the fees from the purchase. I have a four dollar fee sitting in the payment that I can’t pay until the end of the month. I love being an Etsy seller but unless they go back to the old method or give us the option to pay for postage and fees before the billing cycle ends then I’ll have to close down my shop.

App is limited. The Etsy Seller app is great for if you plan on viewing your orders and stats. Or if you need to do small edits to your titles, tags, and description. If you want to actually use the features found on the website, your best bet is it access your shop through Safari or a computer. This app has potential, but it lacks many features needed to use it effectively. A couple of things that drive me crazy- You cannot Print your orders in the normal format. Instead, it is enlarged and prints like a webpage would. Second, you cannot view order details on the order page. You have to click each one individually until you find the one you need. Those are only the tiny details that are flawed. The biggest issues- you cannot print shipping labels from the app. The marketing options are limited, as well as the settings. For most settings, it will tell you to get on a computer. You also cannot unselect an attribute or recipient once it is selected. You can only change it to a new option. I keep the app simply for viewing basic information on new orders and to update tags.

Easy to use most of the time. I’ve been selling on Etsy for a while and like to use the app to add new listings and share them on social media. Overall it’s been easy to use. But recently I’ve been unable to share anything from the app. When I hit share I get a blank page. It’s frustrating because that’s how I promote my store which in turn brings sales, since this has been an issue my sales have decreased. Any help would be appreciated. I am using an iPhone. I continue to have the same issue about 95% of the time. When it occasionally seems like it will work, it completely freezes. I received an email from Etsy support in response to this review. However when I respond with the requested screen shots, i get a this is not a valid email message. I’m seriously considering leaving Etsy. These glitches are affecting my income. Updated to add that I’m still having the same issue more than a year later. Can’t share any of my listings using the app. It’s very disappointing as i use my phone for everything and the app is supposed to be made specifically for that.

So slow it’s useless. When this app first came out a few years ago I was very excited and happy about it and very satisfied with how it worked. But it has become so incredibly slow. I have tried to use it for in person sales lately and without WiFi (which is often not available at many in-person markets, it’s so slow that it’s useless. I could do a single sale from my listings. I had to do everything as a quick sale, so now all of my inventory is off because I had to sell quick sale blank items instead of selling from listings. Now I have to go through everything and update all my quantities, and worse, I have to deactivate items that should actually be sold out. I can’t manually change the status which makes keeping on top of my inventory very difficult. If it doesn’t get fixed I will go back to processing payments through Square. I could access everything else without WiFi but Sell on Etsy couldn’t manage a basic search or sort. Seriously disappointed.

This App is Terrible. I’m a new Seller (on Etsy) & trying to list them items thru the App has been the Worst Experience! I never write reviews but I’m tech savvy & it’s taking me hours to try to get my stuff listed thru the App. And for some reason the App doesn’t save your listings in the Draft section. So as you’re scrolling thru the menu options, if (when) you accidentally swipe the screen all your progress is erased & Not Saved in Draft‼️🤬 Want to just Save as you go along so that doesn’t happen?? There’s No Option for that‼️And if Esty says there’s any of their so called “Errors” in your listening it Won’t Save‼️ There tools make it hard to find & edit options, when I put in Shipping Box dimensions it keeps giving error messages- Apparently the Apps Shipping tool doesn’t like non Post Office Standard size boxes 📦 In Summery, I hate this App… Listing items & having to add detailed photos, descriptions, measurements & Shipping info is already time consuming enough with constantly loosing your progress too 🚫

APP IS FINE BUT BEING A NEW SELLER OR SMALLER SELLER IS NOT GOOD.. I can operate the app perfectly fine and it has never given me an actual issue yet. For the people who’s accounts locked and whatnot I suggest not using different devices such as laptop to cellphone to ipad whatever you signed up on continue on that device only. I know you should not have to do that but I finally learned after several limitations or random suspentions on different services that when you use a device that you didnt register with the A.I. Locks your account it may not happen right away but after multiple switches back and forth from laptop to phone it will flag and freeze your account. Now back to etsy I can tell for small businesses it works great but for new unestablished sellers new to the app It doesnt work well at all I have made alot of listings and shared every one of them with 4 to 5 other apps and its popular items and I barley get any traffic and no messages at all basically nothing at all if your an individual seller its tough to get started and maybe it just isn’t good for individual sellers at all.

Bad Bad Service. If you think about selling on etsy. Don’t. They will cherry pick who they want to sell on etsy. i been selling on etsy for months then all of the sudden they suspended my account with no reason and worst is never get an email. They will never email you back if you email them. Worst customer service as a seller. I compare my store to other stores and they are not suspended. I follow policies and etc. If you email them they will either give you a corporate answer that doesn’t answer your question or No respond at all. I will never support you again and will tell my family and friends, co-workers and everyone i know about my experience. I hope you find this review frustrating because i attempted to email you for many times and i didn’t get any respond. What much worst is you don’t let me sell on your platform and will automatically suspend if i create a new account but you let other sellers to sell things that are the same products as mine.

eBay now Etsy seller. As an eBay seller with close to 600 positive sells and none negative I was looking for a way to expand my sells and Etsy has provided me with a comparable platform in which I can use to grow my business. I truly appreciate the ease and user friendly design of the Etsy app and find it equal to if not better than eBays. I truly have no complaints but one. The one issue I would like to see changed is this. Etsy wants you to pay in order for google to find your items in its generic search results. Meaning if someone searches for an item on google, that item won’t show up in the search results for Etsy unless you pay. Pay a small fee and your items can be seen by googles search engine. I find that caveat contrary to good business practice and refuse to pay that fee for advertising. It goes against what I feel is right and other than that I have no issues with Etsy.

Deletes listings way too easily while working on them. This review is only for the app - not for Etsy in general. This app is horrible, horrible, HORRIBLE for creating listings. The one good thing is that it’s easy to get pictures uploaded. The massive downside is when you have spent an hour or more on one listing, entering all the details for every variation, entered all the tags, etc. and with one swipe it all deletes. PLEASE add an auto save feature. I create listings for custom designs and need to type out details on the customization process and care instructions. I was trying to scroll back to the top of the item description to review and pulled my screen down halfway more than I should and now all of my work is deleted. This happens so much that I now I write out my descriptions in the notes app so I can copy/paste. But even with that it’s still a huge waste of time to re-enter all of the details that go into each listing. Either add auto save to listings or change the way you exit a listing when it’s incomplete. Looking at the other reviews I can see this has happened to other people as well.

Used to work. This app used to work just fine, but sometime in early 2017 it started to fail on me regularly. Selling from Listings is nearly impossible. Listings don’t load quickly at all, searching thru listings is next to impossible, and listings are not totally up to date with my website if I changed any info or have a current sale or promotion running. AND they eliminated the feature to apply a discount at checkout. So if I have a listing 25% off for the month, but that isn’t reflected in the app and I can’t apply the discount at checkout, I have to do a Quick Sale, which totally negates the whole reason I use this app to keep my shop inventory up to date. I may have to revert back to just making sales via quick sale or PayPal and updating my shop inventory when I’m at the computer after an event. Reinstalling the app and re-logging in has not resolved my Problem and it’s been almost a year of an app that is next to useless. It literally took me 7 minutes last July to perform a Sell from Listings at an art festival and all I could do was continually apologize to the client. Total fail. No fixes from developers.

Terrible app!. You would think that with the money they take from us sellers -and it’s a lot, I pay almost 30% of my sales in fees - they would pay some professionals to make a better app. I just noticed this week that some of the ‘older’ listings, the listings that haven’t been searched or looked at by the customers in the last week don’t even appear in the app anymore, although they’re active and I pay fees to keep them active… I have over 2500 listings and about 20% of these listings which are active, don’t show up in the active listings when I do a search for the in the store, it’s like they don’t exist.… which is strange since I’m paying listing fees for these. Also, good luck responding to a conversation on this app, if your being messaged by another customer at the same time your typing your answer to a question from a customer, the app just updates to post the question from that customer and erases everything you’re typing in the meantime so you have to start again …

Problems logging in. Every time I go to log in, I am forced to reset my password. Every. Single. Time. I haven’t even posted products yet because of this glitch. Etsy also doesn’t seem to have an easily accessible contact for these issues. It took me longer than it should have to find help and even then, it was all about prompts and avoiding having to design a system for business owners to contact a real person for support. This is very poor business practice and you are going to start losing business. Then, I get on here to leave a review and read through all the problems similar to mine and more, that others are having with this app and it makes me very uneasy and worried about working with Etsy. You have a lot of problems to solve, here. Starting with your attention to your customer-business owner base and the serious issues with the login loops forcing people to constantly change their password. Do better, Etsy.

Fees on top of fees and frustrating sign up. This platform is not seller friendly AT ALL. They have a huge number of requirements for even being able to set up your profile- let alone start selling. It takes hours to just get a basic shop set up. They are now also requiring a photo ID, which many people are financially incapable of getting, and they offer no alternative to for people who are in poverty or don't drive. They also take massive fees from every single sale you make. You get charged to even list an item weather it sells or not PLUS a sale fee PLUS a withdrawal fee PLUS a shipping fee. So they end up taking about a quarter of your profits in the end, in 4 separate fees to try and hide how ridiculous it is. Forces you to keep prices extremely high or basically make nothing at all. Their sign up process and exceptionally high fees take all the fun out of selling. You 100% should go to ebay instead. You'll have an account in less than 20 minutes with no ID requirement and their fees are so much lower. DON'T USE ETSY, YOU'LL LOOSE YOUR PROFITS!!

Extremely frustrating. The app has no auto save features and exits out of the listing too easily, erasing all progress made on creating a listing. I’ve had to rewrite everything three times now and have to do it again. First time deleted because I swiped from too far up on my screen, and it exited out of my listing, deleting it, second time was I went to go add a photo, and it closed, third time was I had to go into settings to give the app photo permissions because even though I gave it all photo access it wasn’t registering and when I went back the listing and my progress were gone again. Another thing frustrated with Etsy overall is it includes you checking in on your listing as a view, which makes it difficult to figure out how much traffic your ~actually~ getting. It’s also confusing to me why Etsy needs two separate apps to shop and sell when other websites/apps can easily combine the two.

Infuriating listing creation mechanics on iOS. Ok, I know Etsy is overall a pretty good place to sell, but this one issue is absolutely infuriating. If you’re creating a listing and you swipe in the wrong direction, you completely close out of it and lose ALL OF YOUR PROGRESS. no draft, no confirmation, even if you just scroll a little bit too far trying to get to a different portion of the page. And you can’t save drafts until you have all the appropriate things filled out, so there’s no way to even save as you go to ensure that you don’t accidentally do this. Furthermore, when trying to edit variations that already exist, the app freezes. Every time, without fail. And if you’re trying to redo the photos for a listing and relink them to variations, you have to save the listing before they will show up to be able to be linked - but you can’t save the listing if the old photo that was linked to the variation has been deleted.

Disappointed. It has happened a few times that if I accidentally swipe to the bottom of the screen, my unpublished listing completely disappears - not even appearing in the drafts. I had already entered almost all of the information so this was very frustrating. Additionally I was frustrated that they enrolled my ad into an offsite program that ended up taking $15 from my sale, and that is on top of what I paid for transaction fees and my regular costs to publish the listing. In total it took $25 from the sale of my item. And after I pay to ship my item, this will end up being probably $35-$40 taken from the total. I was not aware that Etsy would list your products into 3rd party ad sites and then take a few that large from your sale. Of course, they surely have it disclosed in the fine print somewhere, but it would have been really nice to have been given the option up front and to have personally chosen to be included in offsite advertising. I felt as if this was done without my permission and although I’m grateful to have made a sale, I definitely would have priced my shop items higher if I had known I was going to be paying a 15% fee to Etsy on the sale. Overall I am frustrated and disappointed with the Etsy experience.

Never side with seller. My family and I had a Covid-19 related family emergency which caused us to shut down our shop. We refunded all of customers and offered a coupon for some money off their next purchase, for the inconvenience. This woman cursed, threatened to continue harassing us until our shop has been shut down and lied and said we were to blame for the outcome of her party, which she clearly states took over a year to plan. I find it hard to believe 1 item ruined her entire event. More so, when we contacted Etsy with proof of all of this, they said she’s entitled to her opinion and they only told her to stop contacting us. She continues to harass us and leave reviews, which in turn tarnishes our image we work so hard to keep clean. I’ve contacted Etsy on this matter several times, with no solution to this issue. I think it’s unfair because Etsy really does put food on our table but we keep having to deal with this woman who’s sole purpose is to make sure no one purchases from us. At what point does this escalate and truly stop. We make money for Etsy, only for them not to have our back when we very clearly need them.

Suspended. Just a warning they will suspend you for no reason and keep up every single shop reselling stuff from Ali express. I had a 5 star shop and was suspended almost 3 years ago and was NEVER able to talk to an actual person and was continuously replied with “this is the last time we will respond to your emails” I do not care what any body from this app has to say about my account. An overall 5 star shop. Any case that was opened was RESOLVED. They said “it will deter people from buying again on Etsy” if they have a poor experience with my shop. How about all these drop shipped items and 1-2 star shops you keep activated. You preach small business but I can guarantee that ETSY does 100% NOT CARE ABOUT YOU. I have read so many similar stories as well. I went from having a steady income to NOTHING because of the company. I know any body reading this from Etsy does not probably are one bit. And if they did they would reactivate my 5 star account. But no, they need to win. They need to put me down in anyway they can. Shameful. I have a eBay account with 600+ items sold and 100% positive feedback. Etsys reasoning make NO. SENSE.

Unsatisfied seller. Etsy suspended my account without notifying me with a valid reason. When I attempted to contact them via email, I was told to wait 24 hours for a response… that was three weeks ago. Etsy does not reply to seller complaints. They also removed the option to call them and get direct help from a human. Now I have money sitting in a suspended Etsy account that I cannot withdraw and no one reaching back out to me to solve the issue. Very dissatisfied with Etsy’s lack of consideration for its selllers. One would assume that with the amount of fees they charge you for doing anything on here, they would have enough funds for a live chat. **UPDATE** After my issue with a suspended account was resolved (…a month later) I now have a NEW issue with etsy. Funds for two of my orders have disappeared from my reserve account AND never showed up in my bank account. When I tried to reach out to Etsy, they sent me an automated pre typed message and told me if I had further issues, to reply to their email. So that’s what I did. They then responded to my email saying that they could not solve my issue for me.

Will shut down accounts without notice!. I’ve been a seller and customer on etsy for a few months. Everything was great up until I hit 60 sales this past month. I had to re-submit my ID for verification purposes as protocol calls for when shops hit a certain number of sales. I sent in my ID and immediately got an email saying my account was suspended which means no one can buy anything and today I found out that people can’t even view my shop to tell me what earrings they want to purchase through venmo, paypal, etc. It has been a week of hearing nothing back after talking to 3 representatives in a chat room and them telling me someone will email “shortly”. I submitted a complain to the BBB because I read up on how this has happened to thousands of other shops without notice for absolutely no reason. I have never had an issue before and only get 5 stars so I’m not sure. It would be different if a representative would have reached out and let me know of the issue but of course they make it hard to get in contact with someone. Etsy has been an easy platform with a lot of traffic but I now have to look for a different sellers platform because I doubt i’m getting a reply.

Needs To Move Ahead, Not Go Backward. We use the listing of products in the App all the time for editing and maintenance. Now, the app will not accept a check in the box for any different sort. More/Listings/Filter and the check box for filter does not work. Don’t add any new features if you affect the older features that everyone uses. Please fix. As a software developer for 50+ years, Etsy Shop Owners who depend on being able to use the functionality of the Etsy App to manage their shop would do much better deleting this App. Constant checking and evaluating their newest releases should be their utmost priority and not a priority of releasing an update every 2 weeks. There is a difference of not having software features versus having software features that don’t perform correctly. I would suggest taking a look of what doesn’t work versus what new features should be added. Without a strong foundation, the software collapses, no matter how many great features are added later. 1 Star is too much.

Aggravating glitch since last update!. This app has definitely improved since first being released. I use it mostly for replying to convos because I find it difficult to setup listings from my phone. Since the last update, there is a glitch that is taking the remaining letters of the last word typed, and putting just those letters onto the next line down, rather than moving the entire word down onto the next line when it’s too long to fit on the line above. (This is an example of what I am talking ab out happening. Do you see how difficult an d incredibly annoying it is when you’re tryi ng to read the text? Also, if my customer is reading my messages from the app, it mak es me look like a grammar-less idiot. I don ’t like this because I am a grammar Nazi!) You don’t see the nonsensical wording until the message is actually sent. I HATE THIS! It looks sloppy and makes it difficult to read. It happens on messages that I have sent and also received, and it only happens with the Sell on Etsy app. So, when I’m reading the same exact messages from my browser or on my Etsy-Shop Creative app, the messages look normal. Please fix the glitch!!!! Thank you!

Your listing process stinks. I am growing increasingly frustrated with the time wasting process of attempting to list items for sale on Etsy. There is no guidance as you are listing an item if you make a mistake until you get through the process to actually trying to save the listing into your shop and you get a message that you that you are missing info and can either save the listing for later or delete it? Why would I go through the cumbersome process of listing an item only to delete it because you want more information in order to make it an active listing? On top of that, I am getting crazy requirements to list “production partners” - whatever that is - when all I am adding is a vintage item for sale. I was forced to save my latest listing “for later” because I couldn’t get around this production partner field and now, as I went back into my shop, my saved for later item is GONE. What a colossal waste of time it is to list and maintain an Etsy shop - not to mention the fact that Etsy holds my money from a sale for at least a week. It’s my money so once an item is paid for, give it to me!! Very unhappy! 😡

Genuinely surprised about the low reviews. I never shopped on Etsy or ever opened one. But I really want to do selling and make a side income. I down loaded both apps the Etsy & Etsy seller. Upon listing as a seller the very next day I had someone purchase & it’s been going pretty well so far. I haven’t had a problem selling & printing labels & talking to buyers. Everything has been going very smoothly. Payments are weekly. Sales & ads work well. Overall very happy. Side note: IF You’re someone that’s REALLY wants to try to do selling/ make passive income, and have no experience / nervous to do it at first (like me) I recommend you just go for it and learn a long the way it might be one of your best decisions. I wasn’t profitable on my FIRST TWO sales but now I am! Doesn’t hurt to try (: Wish you all well and the best of luck!😊

App is ok but.... I don’t have many issues with this app but I noticed the shipping labels are very vague to update. It didn’t allow me to change flat shipping price to calculated and the shipping label I saved from the computer Etsy website is not showing up on this app. Idk if it is a glitch. It worked fine before but the shipping labels stopped showing up recently. I tried re-downloading. It didn’t work. Also I don’t really like the stats section anymore. I wish it would give me where the total views were coming from instead of the visits. I don’t really care where the double visits from the same people are coming from. I feel like the total views and their location are more important than visits. It only shows the location of the visits which is only the people who came multiple times. This also makes it confusing because what if it’s only one person visiting the whole time? I’m exaggerating a bit but it’s a little confusing in that sense. It’s as if it’s showing the popularity yet it’s the same person over and over.

Happy seller. Etsy wants you to succeed. There’s so many resources available and they will nudge you in the right direction to get more sales and to bring customers your way. I’ve been running my small business off of Etsy since 2018 and every year my business grows more and more, something I can easily see with the stats available right at the front of this app. I can organize my orders, message customers, and read reviews perfectly with this. For the first few months I used to just go off of emails. The emails I receive are still important (especially the ones alerting me that I’ve made a sell), but downloading this app has made everything much easier for me. If it weren’t for Etsy I don’t think I would have ever started my business, let alone be as successful as I feel I have been. This app is extremely user friendly, if you’re just starting you can take it at your own pace. There’s so many handy dandy features. For example, you can set your shop in a temporary vacation mode for when you’re out of town or unable to do orders. I personally can’t think of a way to improve my experience, thanks to the developers and whoever else is on the Etsy team.

Gets harder and harder. I have been selling on Etsy since 2016. Though I have enjoyed the financial independence that the app has brought me, the corporate office at Etsy keeps making it harder and harder to make money every year. They just raised the transaction fees from 5% to 6.5%. They charge a substantial amount more than that when someone purchases something after clicking on one of their outside ads. They have just made it mandatory to provide tracking info to customers, so now you have to charge a minimum of $7-9 shipping for every sale to get the tracking number, even if you’re mailing an envelope that could be sent with the cheaper shipping. Etsy sellers do all of the creative work while the company itself keeps expanding and expanding financially, such that for the first time since 2016 I’m actually losing money selling on their platform. I’m grateful for the opportunity their site has provided me but disappointed that they continue to make it harder to turn a profit.

Powerful app if you use it correctly. I use this app all day ever day and have found it to be a “must have” on all devices. I primarily use it to get quick access to shop data - essentially all the data you can see on a browser around site traffic, orders, marketing campaigns, etc...very helpful if you want a quick snapshot of open orders, number of conversations, traffic for the day, etc. I’ve also used it to modify listing titles, tags, descriptions, prices, promoted bids, etc. That said, if you’re going to be building out new listings or modifying shipping profiles I would recommend sticking with your PC - I don’t think this app is built to help you truly design/build your your shop and listings, but it’s a great supplement to your browser tools. The app also has nice notifications for new orders, shop favorites, conversations, etc. Great widget for immediate access to data, which i’m addicted to. Two items on my wishlist for the app... 1) I would like to have different notification sounds for conversations vs. shop favorites and listing favorites - right now I they all default to one notification sound. 2) once or twice a week my widget will stop working and tell me to “sign in” despite me being signed into the app, or signing out/back in. Only solution I have found is to delete the app and re-download from app store - a bit of a pain. Not sure why this is happening? Thanks Etsy!

PLEASEEE READ THIS!!!. PLEASE ADD THESE FEATURES TO THIS APP! •Option to NOT add tracking number when sending shipping notifications even if it's over 10 dollars. It will not send because it keeps asking for a tracking number.) (Sometimes orders sent out are sent in 1 oz or 3 oz envelopes that would cost the customer more money to send with tracked shipping!) •Variation Profiles! I HATE having to keep adding my 30+ vinyl options on my listings over and over again! Can we please create a profile just like your shipping profiles that saves our variations list so we don't have to keep adding them every single listing. Sometimes we sell the same thing with the same variations just in different designs. •ability to add video from our phones and tablets. I want to add more videos to listings but I don't use my laptop much. I always use this app. Please make it happen. It's annoying having to keep whipping out the laptop. •When making a listing from my iPad, I accidentally touch outside of the listing square where I fill out the information and cancels and makes me start ALL OVER AGAIN! It's annoying having to re-type everything we just did! Please add a feature that auto saves your info or at least a "are you sure you want to cancel option?" Instead of just closing it all together. I'm BEGGING for this! It would make our lives much easier! And a WAAAYYY better app/seller experience!

Listing is a nightmare. This would be a very helpful tool if listing wasn’t such a nightmare! If you are halfway through a listing, even if you have all your photos added and descriptions written and categories chosen, then you switch to another app or accidentally flick the “new listing” window down by scrolling a little too far, you will lose the lot! It doesn’t save it as a draft either. Have just lost something 4 times we tried to list for my husband’s store. WHY would you let the app bin all the info someone has put into a listing without even holding it as a draft or popping up a warning that they are about to delete all the info they’ve just put in?!

Almost all the functions!. I'm a new seller on Etsy and found the app to be very helpful. It's a bit clunky to upload items but I prefer to do that on my computer, it's great for messaging customers and also for seeing when a sale has been made. I highly recommend this app for sellers!

Very handy. I’ve never experienced any problems. Helps me reach and sell products to a wide and varied international market with ease and efficiency. Fantastic for my small business start up for which there’s a limited local marketplace.

Account suspended with no explanation. My account got suspended, I was running Etsy ads since a few days, so I had already spent on Etsy and out of now where my account got suspended, i had paid for ads, listings, and my time and money was spent, and it took a minute to etsy to delete my account and telling me that I violated any terms without giving reasons, I appealed and still got rejected, I had spent more on Etsy than I earned anything

Great app little confusing at first, but easy after a bit of use.. It’s a great app didn’t take long to figure out, some things are a bit confusing or vague, but a bit of trial and error fixed that for me. Edit. Some updates have made the app a bit more easier to understand. Still great so far.

Great for a craft start up.. I’ve been using Etsy for a couple of years now. It works very well for my Silversmithing. I have relatively low turn over because each piece is hand made. My only issue is the integration with Socials. It could be easier. Otherwise love it.

Easy convenient tool for your small business. This app makes it easy for me to sell on the go. Heaps of functionality and makes working on my shop easy from anywhere.

Great exposure for my hobby / business. I have a very small business which is getting seen by buyers thanks to Etsy. It takes me a while to hand make my items, and sure enough Etsy seems to find me buyers just as soon as I’ve got a few products ready. It’s uncanny! I love the Square integration, so that I could count my market sales along with my online sales. It’s been lots of fun.

Lovely app to help my business. I love this app. It helps me not only sell my items but to keep track of everything I need in one convenient place. Easy to use. Perfect for what I need .

Makes work a breeze. The Etsy seller app is excellent when I’m on the go. I can contact buyers to discuss custom jobs. Send them pictures of supplies I am buying for them. When I get to the post office, I have all the info I need on my phone to send my customer packages. I can update listings, upload photos & check my stock. I seriously couldn’t work as efficiently without it. And it all syncs with my laptop & iPad.

Good info, easy to use. Quite an easy app to use. Really good to see the sales & coupons added to marketing section, save having to log in through desktop. Gives heaps of stat data and easy to change length of time. Handy to have orders/shipping addresses while out & about. Thumbs up!

Easy tracking store activities. I have been using Etsy for my own jewellery sale and my own shopping for a while now. So far, I haven’t bumped into any major issues. I get quick response whenever there’s any tech inquiries. I get to communicate with shoppers without any trouble. Good app to use if you don’t have the resources to manage your own online sales platform.

Great tool for an Etsy seller. Fave thing about this app: the cha-ching when you get a sale. It has almost all the features of the desktop site and makes it easy to see new orders, update the progress or mark as shipped. I like how I can create new listings or copy old ones, and add photos straight from my phone. It keeps getting updated which is great. A must have for an Etsy seller.

Amazing!. We are a small business who sells dog bandanas and we love Etsy! It is so amazing and helpful for us to sell our products online and it is a n easy system for our buyers to use! We recently just purchased Etsy Premium and so far it has driven up our sales significantly! Maybe Etsy premium could offer more advantages such as more customisable changes to your account and maybe a larger discount on the section where you can build your own website. Overall Etsy is a very helpful place to start your small business and sell hand made crafts! Come check us out on Etsy at PawfectPups&Co🥰

Easy to navigate.. I found it easy to list on Etsy and if there were things I didn’t understand it was easy to find a tutorial or a help question.

So easy to use and perfect for on the run. I love how easy it is to use when you are on the run and aren't in front of your computer. Makes managing a business simple

Scam. I am a Etsy seller started late 2020 I understand the fees and I don’t have anything against that however I sold a $80 item and lost $20 on shipping no big deal later I found out Etsy gave the buyer a full refund for no reason when I tried to turn the package back to me so I didn’t loose so much i was told the item was already delivered. Etsy hasn’t been responding to my emails for a few months I do not recommend using this selling platform I’m about to move to my own website

So easy and quick to use on the go. The app is so great when you have some many thinks to do in your handmade business. Pop in the app to do most things you can do on the desktop version

Fantastic!. The app coherently organises my orders, makes tracking packages easy, listing and editing products etc. My only suggestion would be the ability to file away messages or archive so I don’t have to sift through my entire history of messages all the time!

Useful app. Overall useful app. Easy to navigate most of the time. Could be better with editing listings - not all functions are available. But day to day use and communication with customers are certainly made easier with this app.

So easy to use!. I have been selling with Etsy for nearly 10 years now and the platform just gets better and better!

Great, very helpful. Great app, helps me keep track of any activity on my shop, just wish that I could access the regular Etsy store from the same app, not 2 different ones. I also found that the desktop site has more functions than the app, which I find a tad annoying at times, but overall, great for managing my shop.

Prefer this to the “new” version. Yes I’m a creature of habit but there’s a few features or ways of doing things here I prefer to the new app. For me it’s easier to communicate with customers and navigate things. I try to use the purple app but always find myself back here. I wish they’d keep this one going!

Great app. Overall Etsy has been a fantastic platform and very easy to use. The only suggestion I have would be to allow the seller to reply to customer reviews.

Great selling platform. Very user friendly, much much better than eb.. you are able to have preset messages, set up sales and coupon codes. Add variations very easily and even advertise across many apps. Great insights into sales, orders, purchase rates and revenue. Only thing it needs is the option to view where most of viewers are located.

When are you going to fix this app?. This app is still not working properly, it used to be good. But now, the font is too big to read all the numbers on iPhone screen, they don’t fit. It freezes on stats and you have to quit. I keep being told you’re working on it but nothing is changing, it’s been months.

Good but could be even better. I have found the Etsy app a really good way to get my pieces seen around the world. However it is getting harder for artist, like me, to get seen on Etsy. So many pieces are NOT being handmade. Lots of Etsy shops are selling things they bought from places like AliExpress. That is really disheartening for ppl that make their pieces. The quality of pieces is not the same as it used to be on Etsy.

Only optimized for landscape users??????. The app overall is okay, but there are definite bugs. Most notably, whenever images are sent via the chat function, you generally have to open them with the iPad in landscape mode otherwise it simply just won't work. The sides will be cut off, you can’t swipe, and there’s no way to open anything unless you rotate your screen. This is incredibly frustrating as I don’t generally use my iPad in horizontal mode, and prefer vertical. So, it would be nice to be able to send and receive images that I can open in my preferred format.

Great for makers and artists.. I’m a visual artist, so Etsy may seem a bit left field for a venue to sell work. My first sale was over $1000. And while it hasn’t been a huge amount of sales over the years, since I’ve joined, it is well worth considering as a platform for artists, with its very easy to use app, which is all about the visuals of the product/art. I call it my business in my pocket.

Love this app. Great for selling items, I love how easy it is to use and it allows me to view orders multiple times and correct mistakes made when creating my items to put up for sale

Ok BUT. works fine except for a few things- one, it is far too difficult to make a new listing, it’s not very intuitive. The WORST thing though, is the way it doesn’t save what you’re working on if you have to leave the screen (perhaps to check a detail you need to respond to when you’re replying to a message) or accidentally touch the background screen while you’re working on a listing. Everything you’ve done just DISAPPEARS and you have to start again from a blank slate. Photos gone, description, tags, everything. It’s RIDICULOUS. Ain’t nobody got time for that!

Easy Etsy. Love using the Etsy app, definitely user friendly & makes it really easy to communicate with my customers. Also great for response times to & from sellers! Almost easier then having your own website!

Best selling place ever!. Before I was using my own website to sell my items, but the sales was not like what I expected, so I closed the shop. Then I try to sell in etsy and the traffic to my store was boom! Amazing, I got a lot of customers. For handmade stuff, this is the place for me to do business. Thank you Etsy.

Great opportunity. I love this app, it’s enabled me to start a little online shop and gain my confidence as a seller. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to start out and share their art with the world.

Easy app to manage. I’ve been selling on Etsy for over five years now. I’ve found it to be easy to use, good support and my business had done well. There seems to be plenty of buyers on the app and I’ve enjoyed using it.

Very handy. I use Etsy’s app for most of my shop work. I find it easier to sit with my iPad rather than at my computer. With the computer version it has more features so I occasionally need to use it. Being able to chat straight away with customers queries on my phone is great.

Enjoy the app. I find this app very easy to use. And I find being a seller very easy to manage the app. I would recommend this app to others and the selling and purchasing platforms are great.

Problem with signing in app. I’ve only just downloaded the app and I already have an Etsy store I’m trying to log into however when I click sign in it keeps saying “we’ve made some important changes to the Etsy app, please use the latest version or browser to continue” however I believe I’m using the latest version and I want to use the app. Is there anyway to fix this?

Essential!. This app is an essential tool for running a successful business on Etsy. Teamed with great photography using your smartphone....it makes listing items and communicating with customers so easy. A must have!

Keeps me up to date. I use the app mostly for keeping track of my stats, though I also do shop maintenance and listings as well. I use it on my iPad. Works well, have had no problems. And I can take my shop with me wherever I go.

Great app but could use some tweaking. As a small business owner I can appreciate the simplicity of this app, it’s made keeping track of orders and making new listings very easy, however I have found it a bit frustrating when creating a new listing I will review photos and whatnot then out of habit, swipe down when I’m done viewing photos, the issue however in this case is that nothing is automatically saved and will take me back to my active listings, when I go back into my listing I had been working on I have found that all my progress has been deleted and not saved whatsoever which can be very upsetting especially when I had committed 20 minutes to writing a description + decided on pricings etc. I really do enjoy this app and this is the only issue I’ve had so to have it fixed in one way or another would be amazing!

Etsy Selling. Easy to use, great layout. Fees are very complex and hard to understand, I had to watch a few videos and read a few blogs to work everything out. My suggestion would be to make selling a little more user friendly and easy to understand. Also it would be fantastic if the shop home pages could be personalised more. As a shopper though- I loveeee Etsy! My favourite online go-to shop.

Great app!. I manage my orders and check my stats, list items easily. Next is to allow us to load videos for listings directly from our phones. Thanks!

Great App for Small Boutiques. Excellent app supporting smaller businesses, helping customers reach them easier straight from their phones. My only comment is sometimes the app is glitchy eg it crashes, or when I make a snippet upon dispatch it says ‘something went wrong’.

Needs to be better.. The app is pretty good for making listings on the go. However there is one massive, very annoying oversight with this app. When creating a listing, there is no automatic draft save, like in Outlook or eBay. Or a pop up to give you the option to leave the “create listing” page or save a draft. So, if you accidentally swipe down on your device screen while creating a listing, you lose all the work you done. No automatic draft, all your work is gone. You need to start from the beginning and re-upload and re-edit your photos, recreate your description, re-type every tag and every material used….you get the picture. It happened too many times so I deleted the app out of frustration. Etsy should fix this. EBay automatically saves drafts, why doesn’t Etsy?

Etsy sell. This is such a good app for small business ! It’s so easy to set up and cheap! You get so many views and saves and I already got my first order after only a few days! Recommended!

Brilliant!. Absolutely Love this app. I use Etsy for both personal purchases and to run my own shop. This app helps keep me well connected to my shop and especially keeping in contact with my customers when I’m out and about, giving me a good response rate. Have had no issues with it thus far

A bliss!. Nothing like being able to manage your shop from your phone wherever you are! Makes running your business SO much easier and it saves you a lot of time.

Great way to start your business!. Etsy has made things easy for me. I started my second business selling here and it’s been great!! I think the only criticism I have is of the fees which are sometimes too much, and the exchange rate mistakes that happen when you’ve refunded a buyer their money. Otherwise, it enables you to have great exposure and markets your products for you!

The worldwide online market. It’s a 24-7 year round market you can access from anywhere, such as your couch or toilet. It has all the stores you could possibly imagine and more, many many more. It’s great for selling goods and I reckon it’s only going to get better!

Not working. Just keep getting an error saying to get the latest version of the app. But the latest version updated months ago and I have the latest version….

Awesome App. User friendly

i love it. fun

Wonderful place to sell. Etsy is an excellent place to sell made crafts.

Sell on Etsy. Great app that allows me to update and add new listings

Easy to use. Great platform, simple to use

Can’t log in. Can’t log in. It offers me to use a browser instead. Why then should I download the app if it offers me to use browser? Weird.

Terrible. They take all your money.. This app is one of the worst selling apps. They will steal half of your profit when selling things. They took $69 dollars off a lot of my products when they sold. I am looking for another place to sell my things. They also charged me unfairly for other peoples shipping. Come on Etsy do better dont take your clients money. I am done with this crappy app.

So Dissapointed!. I’m currently unable to change my prices! It’s a huge issue because I’m losing all my profits unless I shut down my store! The customer service chat support reads off a script and types the same message over and over. I was flung around to six different people who just used the same lines repeatedly! The problem is still not solved! Honestly the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced! What am I supposed to do now? I’ve tried changing my shipping profiles, clearing my cache, logging off and on, changing the prices individually and through bulk pricing, republishing listings, changing the currency, etc. Nothing is working! The price is not budging! I’m truly hoping they can fix this error soon. I’ve already invested so much into Etsy including paid ads not to mention the high fees they take from my low priced items. I wanted my prices to pay a tiny bit of profit but right now I’m breaking even! ETSY, PLEASE FIX THIS!!

I’m so angry with this app. It suspended my account for no reason and just wasted my time It really waisted my time

Easy to Use. Very straightforward and easy to use

Unable To Sign In. Just downloaded this app for the first time and when I try to sign in it tells me to update to the latest version or use my browser. Uninstalling and reinstalling didn’t resolve the issue. Tried to sign in via my Apple account (of which I hadn’t previously set up) and it still wouldn’t let me.

Great app. Great

Where did my visits go??. The first time I opened this app it was really good. 3 months later the app started glitching and it said I had 0 views for my shop when yesterday it said more than 0. I used the “all time” button but it still says 0 views. This makes me feel discouraged because it says I have 0 views. Please tell me how I can fix it or could you please fix it. Thank you. :(

Doesn’t work. I tried every way of signing in but it said my password was wrong every time

Confused. Downloaded the app. Went to sign in.. hit an error saying they made some important improvements and to download the update (which, I JUST downloaded the app - should it not be the latest version?), or to use my browser? Huh? I don’t get it.

etsy review. The best choice for selling or buying handmade items!

Love it!. Works great & helps me stay on top of my orders and keep in touch with customers on the go

Etsy sell. Is just Awesome

Etsy. No worry selling, fees are fair at this point

Good. It would be better if I can see the repetitive buyer in this app.

Great way to connect.. Plenty of customers with a love for art and support for crafters.

MaritimePaws. I love my Etsy Shop. Everything is so easy once you’ve got your listings set up 😁

Great App!. I have had several issues with the new Etsy Seller app so I deleted it and continue to use this one!

Loving my Etsy sales so far. I’m happy with my Etsy sales so far.

Amazing service. Thanks for everything Etsy!

Simple and Easy. Very easy to use

Esty is my best spot to sell on line.. Love it very much

Pampered Femme first order. Just started a little business of body butter and bath soap a few months back called Pampered Femme in Canada. Today we revived our 1st order !!! Etsy is easy to manage, VERY HAPPY!

Can’t log in or see shop. when I try to log in, it tells me to get the latest version or use web version. Can’t find this new version anywhere. I made a listening but now I can’t find it or my shop anywhere on the web version.

Excellent. Excellent!

Love it!!. Makes managing sales from the lake super easy!!

Love Etsy!!. I’ve been on Etsy since they started and still love thus site. The sale app is excellent!

No traffic. Etsy does not drive traffic to my shop anymore. Etsy traffic 80% down compared to previous year. Marmalead rates all my listings as A and B’s, so can’t be an SEO issue. They want you to pay for ads. Not happening. Go somewhere else. You’d have to work hard on your social media to make it work!

Great app!. A lot of the reviews are about NOT the app. The app itself is great and I’m really sad to see it go in May. This will be such a bad move on Etsy’s part.

Great. this app is great for etsy sellers. easy to access you shop on the go and reply to your customers quickly. very convenient

Etsy app. The only thing I have to say about the app that’s bad is the section management of your shop is hard to find in the app, the internet page is easier to manage this portion.

App redirects you to their website in browser.. When you open the app it greets you with the login screen. When you try to login a pop up says you cant login on the app and you need to go login and manage your account through their website in browser. The app is completely useless.

Won’t let me sign in. It won’t let me sign in and says I need a browser. It doesn’t work.

My orders disappeared. I updated the app & my order history are gone. Not only that, my new orders are gone now. It still showing I have open orders but it’s empty when I clicked into it. Please have it fixed.

Best E-Commerce Platform to Dropship Now 2023 February. I love ❤️ how Etsy has its own ad campaign, is very user friendly, and simple to use. The SEO are easy to use (just use prominent hashtags). I have gotten 3 sales so far in the last week, thanks to Etsy. I am focused on growing multiple stores on Etsy and hope you can start your very own store as well ✅ P.S. Check out my store | HighOnHype

East to use. There are some anomalies between the functionality on the app and the website, but it’s pretty functional and easy to use

Fantastic. Great app! Can organize my items easily. Can link to the square app right thru the Etsy app and link my whole store to the square so if I sell something at a market it takes it out of store inventory as well!! I love how these 2 apps work together!!!

Bad platform. They will close your store without notice they approve you for selling and then just Sweep ur store off the market without notice leaving buyers and sellers both in a dilemma…i would suggest opening a website and play safe …etsy is not trustworthy.

Great experience for our family. Thank you

Very simple and easy to use. Love this app! Its very easy to use it and I just love the interface

App Update March 27, 2019. This update has changed my listing photos. Some preview photos have been cropped and cut off some of the picture - but revert to fine when you open them. Other listings have all 10 photos cropped. Some listings have BOTH - some pics changed and some not. It’s not even a uniform change!!! WTH?

Well made. Nice app and it’s easy to use.

App not letting me sign in. It’s telling me to update the app (I just re-downloaded it & there are no updates available) or use my browser.

Not able to sign in. I’m not able to sign in because they said i need to update the version of my app while it is updated and no more updates available. Looks like they having a problem. So when I open a shop I can’t trust this kind of stuff.

Etsy is good but sellers are petty. Etsy itself I enjoy selling on a side from payment reserves which are a pain and make it hard to really make money starting out.. other Etsy sellers will report your items and put you on payment reserves if they are even remotely similar to have them taken down! I do hand painted resin mold statues and someone reported my statue as copy-write because they make the same mold (as most molds are mass made) and theirs was significantly priced higher by like 40$… now my shop is on a payment reserve from it and it’s incredibly frustrating… I’m going to have to put my own money into my shop to ship orders now, that’s realllyyyyyy frustrating.. and this isn’t the first time something like this has happened either. Now my shop is suffering because of how Etsy handles these situations.

Stops working so well once you’re successful. Etsy works great for small beginners who sell online but once you start doing $50,000 or more in sales a year the problems begin. Prepare for high sales and advertising fees! The fees keep rising! Also, Etsy almost rarely sides with the seller when the buyer is clearly wrong or simply trying to scam you to get free products. Etsy will suspend your shop for pretty much anything and not allow you to even try and fix whatever problem they may have with you. Their customer service is terrible, especially when dealing with anything financial! With Etsy, more money means more problems! My advice is that when you start making $30,000+/yr in sales (or 2000+ transactions) prepare to create your own website with Shopify or Big Cartel. Then start guiding your Etsy customers to your other platforms instead.

Etsy used to be good... but now. I’ve been on Etsy for about 2 years, and I hate to say this and leave a low rating because of Etsy support, but I’ve been reaching out to Etsy for almost 2 MONTHS now and haven’t gotten a prompt response from the team about my account status since it was suspended since the beginning of January. The team who works on these situations really need to get on track to help sellers with these kinds of situations as quickly as possible. 2 months is WAY TOO LONG of a time and I do not know how much longer I’ll be waiting. They also keep taking money from the account even though the customer has already had received the item and/or a replacement has been sent to the customer. Because of Etsy closing down the shop abruptly, These things caused my shop rating to go down. This is really inconvenient for small business.

Questionable practices. Etsy allows buyers to rip you off. If they want a refund and want to keep your item they will be allowed to do that. The buyers are allowed to leave libelous and defamatory comments. Although most buyers are not that nasty. The customer service for sellers is nearly nonexistent and it is very tiresome and tricky to even contact someone. Once you make contact it’s obviousThat they haven’t actually read your query or possibly are not that familiar with English. although this site previously featured only handcrafted or truly vintage items. Nowadays there is all kinds of foreign made slave shopped crap, and items that are not really vintage but sold as vintage. so it is very hard to compete with foreign made cheap goods.. eBay actually treats the sellers much better. And it doesn’t pretend to feature certain items it just sells everything.

DO NOT sell on Etsy. I never leave reviews. But this has to be said. I had started an Etsy shop with no clue what I was doing. I finally figured out how to start up my shop. I had only 3 items listed. Apparently, I sold something. I had no notice of this, no messages, nothing telling me that I had a sale on my Etsy seller account. I get an e-mail that has a message from an unhappy customer saying she has never received her item from me. I was unaware that I even HAD an order!!! I will NEVER again be using Etsy. Also, if you thought “why doesn’t she contact customer service?” There is no way to even do that. No phone number. No e-mail. I can’t find any sign to speak to a human from Etsy at all. This is very very poor customer and seller service. I will never be using Etsy again once this issue is resolved.

PLEASE FIX THIS BUG. IT’S BEEN YEARS NOW!!!. I have been reporting this bug for years and NOBODY HAS FIXED IT. One time, Somebody responded and told me to try logging out of the app and logging back in. That did not work. I deleted the app and Reinstalled it. That did not work. If I get any notification either in the Etsy app or and any other app any message i am composing gets deleted. I have to type my message in another app and copy it over to the Etsy app. If I navigate to another page to copy the URL for one of my listings for a customer, my message gets deleted. Basically the page reloads. You cannot compose messages in the app. I’m irritated because I have just had my messages deleted over and over again in the span of 15 minutes and over the years there are multiple issues that I have had and although my fees go up, there has been no customer service to address any of my issues.

Permabanned. Made an account to sell paintings and after a month or so if them being up without issue I was permanently banned without an email or anything explaining why. I emailed them asking what the reason was and after about 2 weeks I finally got a response telling me I was permanently banned for terms of service and yet again, no explanation as to why. My posted paintings were 100% original and straight paint on canvas. No nudity or violence, no false advertisement(only things I had painted and posted was starry skies and flowers), therefore in my eyes no reason to have been blocked from the platform after paying monthly fees to post them in the first place. Highly recommend finding another platform for selling any kind of handmade or original product as etsy likes to use the hashtag #standwithsmall but their actions contradict it. Extremely disappointed in this service.

Not able to list, drafts wont save. This is ridicules that app have som many features but when want to list something you need to go always with same boring menu many people list only in one category but still need to press million of button to go to the correct place. Also first three menus just don't make sense should at least be on one screen. But most frustrating is that after last update I cant list anything first listing just display error and didn't save as draft second one when I wanna save draft myself it just didnt that and go back to another. I waste so much time to find correct category another tome to just try to list and both on work was destroy by this app. I was planning to move all my listing from eBay on the app during time that I have 5-10 minutes on the phone but I just probably will stay on eBay even they have worst old software at least it is working.

Sell on Etsy app. It’s actually pretty amazing- frustrating if WiFi signal isn’t strong enough for photos/albums to upload for me to use in creating a new listing, etc. For example - But honestly it’s incredibly user-friendly for someone that is used to doing pretty much everything via smart phone as it is and also for keeping an eye on favorited items/new sales/any customer messages sent to us about custom orders or questions on specific items, etc. On the go and Without having to check emails or login to Etsy manually in order to see updates and if any sales have come through, etc. So DEF Great for being on the go 👌I didn’t give full stars due to occasional technical problems and difficulty with receiving customer support at times/ but other than that - it’s awesome

Absolutely horrible. We started using Etsy in February and tried the app out, only in the past few months have I really started selling there. It was so so to start with but, like many others have reported, it's horribly slow. The one thing I want to use it for is to add pics to listings seeing as how my phone is my camera. But, it took 3 full minutes to load the window to add a photo then after I finally added it the thing crashed. I guess it's because I'm the only person on the planet that uses their phone as a camera. Guys, even eBay can do that and that's saying something. Functionally it does maybe 40% of what the desktop site does and I'm being generous. Every time I go to do something I realize it's not there. And, rather than adding features they take them away with updates! The most recent update made all of this worse. If the mobile rendering of the site worked any better I'd use that but guess what? Even that doesn't work very well. Etsy: pick a mobile strategy, either make the mobile web rendering ONE HUNDRED PERCENT like the desktop experience (and working) or make the app work, they're both broken horribly. I have decided to start evaluating alternatives to Etsy including building my own store, because of all of your problems. Get it together Etsy, we pay you ACTUAL money for your service.

I hate using this app to make listings. Wow I almost forgot how much I despise this app until I tried updating and adding a new listing just now. With the slightest touch of the finger you too can lose all progress on a new listing! Restart and waste your valuable time, guaranteed! No prompts asking if you’d like to save your draft or make sure you want to exit! Awesome! Literally happened all the time to me when I made listings months ago. Completely infuriating. I took a 8 month break from creating listings, start again today and low and behold! The app is just as terrible as it was before and I lost all my progress on my very first listing I created in months. Screw the people the programmed this terrible app. Like most things on the app work great but god forbid you actually try to do work on the app like create a listing.

DEAR DEVELOPERS, PLEASE FIX THIS:. When making a new listing, it is so easy to completely lose all of what you wrote by swiping down. The app can’t seem to differentiate swiping down and scrolling down (ie if my description for a new listing is long, I swipe down to scroll up to the top of the description, but the app thinks I’m exiting out of creating a new listing so it cancels the listing). Maybe creating an instant auto-saving feature when a product is created? Or bringing “create a listing” to a new page when it is clicked? I can imagine and have just experienced the frustration users have felt because of this, especially after writing a long product description and to have it all deleted. Thank you. I understand coding and debugging is hard work so you‘re very appreciated for all the work you’ve done thus far!

Superb. I have had an Etsy shop for several years and totally love this amazing platform! I have been a professional artist most of my life and sell in fine arts shows all over the Southwest. Etsy gives my customers an opportunity to purchase my work long after I have left their town, and is a fantastic way to keep up with my customer base. I love the seamless simplicity with which my customers can buy my work, and the ease of transaction to shipping label your company provides for shops. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be an international artist, but now I have work in 14 different countries!! Wow, that is powerful! Love My Etsy shop

App is acting up... I know Etsy has another app that they are pushing for sellers to use but I still gravitate towards this one more. Every time I try to get into the “Listing” tab the app will completely close on its own. I even managed to create a whole new listing on my phone since I had the photos on my phone. When I went to my desktop the listing wasn’t showing up on my drafts but would only show as a draft on my phone. It’s been very frustrating especially since I’m always on the go & rely on the app more. I assumed it’s just a bug & needs an update but even updating it to the latest one after IOS16 the app now closes on its own randomly whenever I try to do anything.

Super easy to use!. At first I thought this was going to be something very difficult but after I put up my first listing I started to realize how easy it is I can see how many views I have gotten and it shows how much money I made in a year! You can also see your growth of visitors on your shop, I also really like how you can dm people if they have a question or maybe sometimes they just want to compliment you :) My favorite part of this app is that when you get something sold it reminds you that you haven’t shipped it yet when you see the app icon there is a little red dot of the numbers of items that you sold that you still need to ship

Not great for creating listings. This app is incredibly frustrating. I have issues with it crashing when I’m attempting to add variations to my listings. This is pretty much the last step in order when creating a listing so I lose EVERYTHING I have worked so hard to make nice. I write long descriptions, go through all the details, make sure everything is neat and tidy, and then the app will glitch and everything is gone. No draft saved, no “where you left off”, it’s all just gone. Isn’t the idea to be able to sell things? Etsy has a pretty high rate they charge sellers, you would think they would make it easier for sellers to make listings and sales. People like me use Etsy to start out because it’s easily recognizable and can be a good place to get your small business off the ground. Please make improvements to this app, sellers across the globe would thank you.

LOVE Using the app over the computer! But…. Love the app! It is 10 times easier to use over adding products online. From tons of individualized sections, to detailed descriptions that are not just the info section of the product…Highly recommend using Etsy to sell your products. My only complaint (and it is beyond frustrating!!!) is that when you’re in the middle of adding a product and you slip up in pulling down the tab of the listing, EVERYTHING is lost!!! This has happened to me numerous times — Would love to see this issues fixed! If nothing else, send those listing to a “deleted recently” section.

So glitchy it’s useless. I’ve tried to use this app several times over the years. Every time I get excited to update my shop or add new listings from my phone, I give up because I literally cannot accomplish anything in this app. I’m trying to do basic things like update quantities of existing items, or add a new shipping profile. I get errors that tell me it’s unable to add the new shipping profile, so I’m stuck with the same old setting. I type in the quantity numbers that need to be updated then navigate back to the listing page and they are all wrong! They either stay the same, all go to zero or some other random number. Not what I typed, and there is no way to get the quantities accurately listed. So frustrating! It doesn’t even do what it’s supposed to do! I would love to sell more on Etsy but it’s just too difficult with this app.

So happy to be a part of this community!. Wow, where do I begin? I was miserable at my night shift job when the idea came to me to try to sell on Etsy. It was just an idea, and I didn’t expect much from it. It took some time, but now I work full time selling on Etsy! I live my dream now. This makes it so easy to start a business online selling your crafts. They offer advertising, and I know they’re always working to expand and grow Etsy sellers. They give you lots of info on how to make a perfect listing to grab attention, and they help in any way you need. Becoming a seller has never been easier and I’m so so thankful that Etsy has made this a possibility for me. Thank you. -Free Unicorn Tears

Useful app. I don’t make listings from this app, but have made adjustments to existing listings pretty quickly. I do like seeing traffic to my shop and looking at stats. I can also respond quickly and easily to messages when needed. It’s also very fast for tracking your shipments! I’m not sure where to report a bug so will ask for the social media feature to please be revised. I’m on an iPhone X and some of the things I need to tap on go so far up the screen they’re useless-they are behind my battery icon and I can’t tap on them. I’ve used this feature recently on this same phone so not sure what changed; but I really enjoyed that new feature so would like to see it fixed. Otherwise it’s a great app!

Love Etsy!. I actually love Etsy. I’ve been a business seller with Etsy, for a few months and just start making my first sales before Christmas! I love how you get notified by your phone & Etsy account...saying congratulations 🍾🎉🎊🎈 on your first sale and also, praying it keep going strong and successful in my shop on Etsy. So far, so good 😊♥️will keep you all updated. **Update** The fees are horrible! You have to get a lot of orders, an order for you to be very successful without Etsy tearing up your balance with money you’ve earned from orders. Etsy please stop charging so many fees. I’m gonna end up closing my shop soon...if it don’t improve. We get charged on everything....shipping labels, any clicks on our products are charged...and more fees. Time to put an end to all of the fees Etsy!!!!!!

Ugh it’s gone doooooown. First of all, why is there no direct support line or fast email for us, the sellers who make you money? Second of all, I thought it was supposed to be handmade vintage why do you allow stones and other none handmade? Why am I unable to click on expired listings and filter to renew? Why are you trying to make a new app? That’s like tick-tock when nobody wants to be bothered with more social media that is a horrible business. Move from a person that was born into many businesses. Awful. Just as importantly, why can’t you just have one good app for buyers and sellers you are doing way too much yet not enough at all you keep increasing all fees and what used to be 5% and 2o cents listing fee has turned into almost 4 times that or more for many. Everybody is leaving whoever bought this company destroyed it. It was based upon and wrecked it like a flea market platform. Shame on you

Pretty janky, just use the website. The app *is* functional but it is very janky, you are better off using etsys website. If you want to have variations to your product go to a certain picture you will have to make the variation labels, publish the listing, and then edit it to have it sync the pictures. if you want to see items that are not in a certain group you have to do it manually or on the website, because there is no sort by items without a group. when marking an order as shipped, a tracking number is said to be optional, but when you try to mark it an error comes up saying that a tracking number IS needed. you have to, you guessed it, GO TO THE WEBSITE, for more specific options about the lack of tracking number to be able to mark it shipped.

Listings aren’t showing up. I’ve noticed a new problem in the past week with my active listings not showing up on my dashboard. When I click on them, it only shows one or two, when I have about 70 active. I’ve updated my phone, and the app appears to be up to date as well, so I’m at a loss. Other issues: As other reviewers have mentioned, it’s terrible how easily you can accidentally leave a listing your writing, losing the entire thing without warning. Please fix this issue! A lot of work goes into each listing, and to lose it is so upsetting. Also, why can’t we add videos to listings from the app yet? Adding listings from the app is much more convenient, but not being able to add videos is a major bummer. Please make enable users to add videos from the app.

Great for small businesses. I’ve been using zesty since 2013 and I must say their apps have improved tremendously. You can literally post, sell, and collect funds all from this one app. You can even create a webpage (extra $15 month) and manage it directly from this app. They constantly are updating and adding new features. Their brand has become so big over the past few years that the traffic it now brings only further help benefit your sales because they promote your items for FREE. There are a few minor costs but overall it’s great. I have yet to find another sell site that performs as good as Etsy. 💪🏽

Solid foundation but desktop is still a must.. The foundation is very solid. I like what we currently have, it is just not enough. The BIGGEST issue is shipping. I can’t set shipping from the app unless it is a fixed price which is fine if shipping is free or consistent. Mine isn’t. So if I can’t fully post a listing from the app then what’s the point? I would give it 4 stars if it was not for that. Im a strict mobile user. Only use desktops to print shipping labels. It took me a long time to learn there was an about me section of the shop because I assumed (incorrectly) that everything to do with editing profile could be done from the app. I would also like to be able to opt into community wide promotions and start coupons from the app. I have no issue loading pictures like a previous review said.

Lots of Issues. This app would be just fine if there wasn’t a HUGE flaw. When trying to list something on my phone, it always takes WAY LONGER than it should simply because of this one design flaw: swiping down while editing a listing will completely exit out of the editing and will lose all progress. I accidentally swipe down and lose all progress several times before I’m able to finish listing something. Why is it that it’s so easy to close out an edit page without it automatically saving? This is a serious issue that needs to be fixed. Be warned that listing things on your phone is terrible and you should probably skip the app and work on an actual computer.

Get with the times!. I can manage my entire business from my iPad, until it comes to sales from my Etsy shop. I have to run to my computer to type out messages or print labels; or switch to a browser. Care to explain why I can print from every other app, but yours? Also, if I start a message to a customer, but I have to navigate away to look something up, or if the device locks, I lose my message! I’ve tried using the browser version on my iPad, which is also irritating. The new process of creating labels has more steps than it did previously: Programming 101! Least number of actions/steps/screens as possible to achieve your goal! Basic UX!! Someone also failed to test all of the screens/functions on the Safari and (new) Edge browsers, because I’m finding parts that don’t work. I’m not going to tell you what parts in hope that it will prompt someone to test all of them. Don’t even get me started on your free shipping one-size-fits-all BS.....

Zero Customer Support. First off, apparently they randomly advertise your stuff and take an additional 15% without notifying you. I never saw an advertisement, I never approved an advertisement. But they did it and took more money than I had anticipated so I ended up with less money than the original cost. Worst Customer Support personnel. Nearly impossible to get. Followed by someone who reads one line of the problem and just starts sending you links to info that has nothing to do with the problem. Never received the help I needed in the end. Refused to pass me up the ladder to someone who would. I complained afterwards and it’s been 2 weeks and they still haven’t responded nor answered my questions or helped me fix stuff. They do not care about anything but taking as much money as possible. I never thought ebay would be a better option to use until now

Terrible. I loved the app in the beginning. I was making great sales but then close to a year. Etsy started targeting me for no reason. Maybe cause my similar listing was making better sales than the other shops. Then Etsy decided to deactivate some of my listings that have been on there for almost a year out of nowhere. I was definitely being targeted! Also, it was unfair how other stores were selling similar items to my and I was the only one getting punished (getting my listing deactivated). Eventually, I was permanently suspended but yet I see other stores similar to mine getting no punishment whatsoever. I sent in my appeal but I got an email back saying it could not be appealed. They also mentioned that I was not being singled out, but it felt like I was since the beginning. The suspension made me lose my business, my income, and the amount I have invested into the business. Years of work and investment down the drain.

So far so good. I’m a new seller, and this app is new to me also. I haven’t had any of the issues I’ve read about on other reviews. From what I can tell, it has most of the functionality of the mobile page, which is good. My issue is that I can have a logo designed from my phone, and order business cards and promo materials. All these apps enable me to use my phone. I barely need to get my laptop out. So why can’t I change the images on my Etsy page from this app? EVERY other app that has a profile picture or banner allows for these changes in the app. The more you can put on the mobile app, the better. If I can make changes over lunch, or from my workshop, then it frees up much of my time to create!

Losing Messages because of Gestures- PLEASE FIX SOON. My business involves writing lengthy messages though the Etsy messenger, which I often use my phone to do. The only problem is that gestures have caused me to lose so many messages. It SHOULD NOT be a function to swipe down from the message box (which happens when trying to quickly scroll to the top of the message) to close the message box. Especially should not be the case because there is no drafts system! So many messages lost, it equates to about an hour of my time a week. I understand that I should simply learn how to better use the messenger. But, like I said, the message box closes when you quickly scroll to the top, which has never happened in any app that I have used with a typing box. Please fix, I beg you.

Bugs and Troubles. To Developers/Engineers: I am STILL having trouble with my app! It NEVER consistently shows me my exact revenue. It’s losing track HUNDREDS upon hundreds of dollars. One time it will show I’ve only got 13 orders, I’ll pull down and it will show me the correct number (44) and the proper revenue and then I pull down again and it will say 15 or 17, something like this. Also, I can’t get “payment account” to open in the App anymore. It just loads a blank page, completely whited out... it’s getting frustrating to use this app. The same is happening on the desktop website as well when I access my account on my laptop. This seems to be a recent issue. I have up to date iOS and am using an iPhone 8 Plus.

Occasionally Reliable. When the app functions, it functions well. Otherwise, there are times I have needed it in order to update my shop and it will stop registering what I am doing altogether. Current problems that have not have had a fix addressed include editing, removing, or adding variations of an item in the shop. You are out of luck if you try a web browser on your phone to edit your shop as the Etsy team has made sure you don’t have that capability - forcing you to use a computer (if you own one) or download their little apps. My days on Etsy are numbered unless the problems and inconveniences are addressed, otherwise there’s no point in continuing to pay for the half-service they are providing.

Freezes. ***update: they repaired the app so it will login, but the app still freezes when going to stats. This has been an issue for as long as I can remember, but it takes hours to get through to tell Etsy of the problems so maybe others have more patience than me and will let them know how painfully terrible their app is for sellers as they tell us all we must give free shipping or we will be dumped to the end of all searches. Blackmailing is a horrible way to do business! Initial review: This app is so frozen I can’t even login. The moment I start typing my login info it freezes. It’s from an update, but this isn’t a new issue. It used to freeze all the time, then it was ok, and now I can’t even use it. Deleted it and reinstalled. No change. Banging my head on the wall! Someone fix this, please!!!! I’ll change my review if you do.

Sad this is going away. I’m afraid Etsy has fallen victim to the sunk cost fallacy with their new “Etsy Seller” app that is set to replace this one. Most real users of the app have recognized that the new app is inferior, yet Etsy has apparently dumped too much money into it at this point to scrap it as they should. This existing app is far superior in both UX and functionality. The new one feels like it was made by one of those app companies using drag and drop templates to build apps for companies that don’t have funds to hire a real developer team. I can only hope that someone at Etsy will have the guts to admit the new app is a failure, then either pull the plug or completely overhaul it with a more experienced team of developers.

Padded reviews. All the good reviews sound so generic and padded. Etsy has become a disaster since they went on the stock market and it became all about the $$$. I’ve seen small sellers get shut down for not being “handmade” while mass produced Chinese junk and wholesale distributor crap is in plain sight all over Etsy. They almost always side with Karen’s too, if a person has an issue it’s always the sellers fault and could never be the buyers. If you do happen to succeed, they force you into their advertising so they can steal even more money from your transactions on top of their already hideous fees, and almost every person that comes from their ads isn’t someone you organically drew to your shop, it’s someone pretentious ready to complain and nitpick about your products. I used to love Etsy, but now it’s trying too hard to be a social media platform.

Glitches. This app is awful. I can sign into my regular Etsy app and the OTHER Etsy sell app yet this one doesn’t recognize my password and user name and it’s literally the same. I’d obviously give this app a chance but it won’t even let me sign in. I’ve even reset my password on the original Etsy app but it didnt work and was a waste of my time. I couldn’t reset it from this app though cause even though I clicked the button to receive a link in my email for a password reset it never sent it. I tried over and over. It’s so frustrating as someone trying to sell for the first time to go through all these hoops and glitches just to access my account. Why so many apps anyway? Why can’t the original Etsy app just have a sell feature where you can access everything from there?

Major issue, but was fixed. Some of my listings are not showing up in the app all of a sudden. They totally disappeared. I called Etsy, and while their customer service was very friendly, I have to wait until they look further into this since she could not figure out the issue. I’m usually pretty patient when it comes to Etsy’s technical difficulties. But this is really affecting my productivity. I can’t post photos from my phone into the browser either. I’m also having an issue with the buyer’s app as well with not being able to post reviews for purchases. I’ve been with Etsy for 10 years and never had issues like this. Update: Etsy seems to have fixed the issue pretty quickly.

Horrible Design. I can’t tell you how many times on an iPhone that I slide down too fast while listing something and my listing vanishes! Poof, gone, erased from history. Sometimes after 30 minutes of work making everything perfect. I then start over only to do it again. I’m lucky I even have an Etsy store. The worst is when my iPhone 11 just deletes the listing with no warning and I need to stat over again!!!! You need to fix this issue!!!! You make enough money that you can fix these dumb issues! I also can’t understand why you’d EVER think giving a flat 15% of my sale to Google is a good idea. You take 10% and 20 cents a month then charge me another 15% without my permission. Terrible business model. I can go to eBay and give search engines 1-15% and it’s my choice to promote each listing. At least I can price it accordingly.

Personalization?. This is my first time using etsy and so far I'm having a positive experience. For me, doing all the listing is easy, however, after opening my shop, it no longer gives me the personalization option except for the "variations" which is a pain. Why would you give me the option to personalize my listings when first opening my shop but don't give it to me when I'm adding a new listing? Even going into the listings of the products I was able to personalize, it never even shows that option but when I go into the preview, it shows that I added the personalization. Am I forced to just use the variation tool to allow my customers to personalize the supply or is the personalization tool hidden in something else?

I love selling on Etsy, but they sneak fees in.. Etsy is so organized and easy to sell, the community is so lovely and understanding. Plus I love that they market for me which helps my products sell. The only thing I don’t like is that they sneak their fees in on the backside. Instead of taking out the selling fee on the front end, when you make a sale. They take it out behind the scenes and you don’t realize it until you check your payout details. My only advice is make sure your prices are high enough to cover Etsy relisting, transaction and marketing fees so that you can still profit. 😊 Hope this helps.

Still love Etsy. I’ve been selling on Etsy for a while and it’s really straightforward. I’ve recently been getting commission work via another app, and I use my Etsy store to handle the money and shipping from those other orders. My customers like it because I can use the listing to provide a full invoice and lots of pictures, plus being able to track shipping. My business wouldn’t be this successful without Etsy. Update, June 2021. Etsy has been a lifesaver. With the economy being shut down due to Coronavirus, being able to make sales and order supplies from Etsy has kept me working. I’m a very happy/grateful Etsy customer and vendor.

My favorite way to manage my Etsy shop on the go!. This app is easy to use and a favorite way to work on the go! I use it to manage my inventory, edit photos, list new items, communicate with customers and finalize shipping. It’s a shame Etsy will no longer be supporting the app come May. It far exceeds the usefulness on the NEW app Etsy has recently released (which is borderline useless to me as they seemed to aim for form over function making it pretty but redundant.) The Sell on Etsy app in my opinion gives us everything we need and is far better than what they are trying to offer as a “new and improved” experience with the Etsy Seller app.

Pretty Good, Just A Few Suggestions. Overall I really enjoy using Etsy to sell my products (Bon Bons Bath Co. *wink* *wink*). However, I have had a few issues, and other sellers have contacted me to tell me they’ve had these same issues). Right after I first opened my shop it was randomly and without warning deactivated. No one ever contacted me or responded to my inquiries and after posting in the Etsy community I learned several other sellers experienced the same thing. 12 hours later my shop was back up, I never received and explanation and can only theorize that it must have been a glitch. A year later another seller read my community post and reached out to tell me they had JUST experienced the same thing, in the same circumstance. It is annoying and stressful, especially as new shop owners. And since it happened again a year later, I don’t think that this problem has been resolved. Also, shoppers who purchase an item from our Etsy shop in person, using Square, cannot leave reviews. I wish there was an option for them to receive emails through which they could log in to Etsy and leave a review on that order. Other than those two things, my experience so far has been great.

Almost unbelievably bad. I’ve never written a review for an app before but this one is so bad that I decided I would. It seems strange to me that a company like Etsy would have such a horribly running app. This is the platform I use for my business and it barely works at all. For starters I can’t even edit my listings. The edit button isn’t even easily accessible and even once you find it, it doesn’t work when you click on it. Adding photos is a nightmare as well. Half the time you have to do it twice because it doesn’t register the first time. The only thing this app is good for is looking at a preview of my shop. I have to do everything on the website. Not sure how it’s so poorly maintained. That’s all for now unless things get even worse than they already are…

Rip off. They take the majority of your money, it cost more to make the product than the money you make here to be honest. Especially if you’re one of the sellers who doesn’t get many orders and you’re just starting. My mom had made an Etsy to sell her beaded jewelry. I encouraged her to but now I feel bad because every time she gets a sell Etsy is there to take it all! I usually just pay her what they took without her knowing. This app is a rip off. Listing. Alright listing a product is the most annoying! Especially when you put so much thought into it. Listing details to detail and all of sudden with ONE accidental hard swipe.. POOOOOF!! it’s all gone!! And then you rage and try to shake it off and try again and POOOOOFFF!! The app freezes and crashes(I have an iPhone XS Max so no it’s not my phone). Etsy needs a whole lot of fixing. I’ll probably open up my mother a different shop where they don’t control and take all your money and hard work.

Too easy to close out listing and lose work. I’ve been an Etsy seller for years and while it’s super convenient to have the option of taking pictures and listing items directly from my phone without the hassle of transferring everything to my laptop, honestly I’m getting super sick and tired of how easy it is to lose all work on a listing. I go through each and every tab, pouring everything I have into your listing and by the time I fill out the last thing, the app either crashes or I slide my finger the wrong way and lose everything. Why does this app not save as a draft after you finish a tab? As annoying as it is, learn from my mistake and manually go and save as draft as often as you can

Punishing small businesses!. Etsy decided to start charging money every time you list something, even if it never sells. So you end up losing a ton of money just trying to sell something. This is horrible for small businesses just trying to start out. It makes it impossible for those of us who don’t have a bunch of money to pour into aimless fees like that. Why would you charge me when I don’t even know if something will sell? No other site I use does this! eBay, poshmark, Mercari, society6, etc. all let you list whatever you want and only charge you if it sells: that’s the right thing to do. Only bigger and more established businesses who can guarantee their items will sell can afford to keep pouring money into Etsy’s greed.

Payment Reserves. I absolutely love selling on Etsy and making my products, but payment reserves are going to put me out of business! Payment reserves are ruining my business by holding money for too long! The money is supposed to help support me in my sells and buy the supplies as I make custom items, but since supplies can be up to 1000 dollars and some, they are held in payment reserves! People who want their item in a specific amount of time are going to be upset when they get such item late! I cannot deal with this! Either take it away, go back to the old system, or send out money faster! I can only wait for at least 2 weeks to a deadline when I need to purchase my supports, not 2 months! You don’t respond to or frankly I believe care about the sellers thoughts, but that may just ruin you as well! Good day.
