There is no option for Croatia country. Why is that?

Be very careful when installing this app. I installed it, put in the information per Shopify request and it started asking for information that nobody has and before I could do any research it shut down my automatically started account. No warning, no chance to fix, just said I wasn't doing how it liked it and never told me how to fix it and it can be fixed wrong. Even worse, the only reason I did it was to assign my store to my account and the store I wanted, even though it let me connect, the location wasn't on the list. Completely useless.

I am coming from using Magento for many years and I have never needed YouTube to get Google Analytics working. However, here on Shopify with this app it is impossible to set up Google Analytics without YouTube. Anyway, I have created my "Brand Account (limited to YouTube)" as they call it now (see the note at the top of https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/7001996), but during the integration when it is time to choose the brand account and selecting the one I did create for the business, it errors with: `Whoops! You're using an account that can't go here. Reference code: es=ABAdc_iIhvK2ZAUWDqjIpeVqHbBtzFtg77o3S-SuSVaYbkqCFX2hkzoGnFRJpqWCRvGTmmexXpLjulqXJ1j1Z_ya7eArOENnYaIVsIECGEnUVdgDwqSXm5TKY-4vgJHAU5Quh6H2l9lK` The reference code is alway random and the error itself is not immediately helpful at all. I have spoken to the Shopify support people but they only suggest to check with Google. Google on the other hand it is impossible to contact as they always refer you to the community and can raise a question with the public. I just needed Google Analytics set up...

Keeps flagging my shops for misrepresentation without giving me any idea what to fix.

The least intuitive app I've come across so far. Confusing, creates errors, waists time. The worst part is that in order to get support from Google, one needs their Shopify Account ID, which is not readily available in their store, but requires a chat with Shopify support. Even they didn't know which ID to provide (multiple failed attempts inputting a "Shopify Account ID" value in the Google support request). Very frustrating.

horrid app. I have it installed, everything is synced and connected, be it merchant center, analytics, google ads. Everything should be good. Tag assistant says no Google tags are on my site. So what's the point?

The Shopify shopping ribbon, which is intended to show products from my store in the description of my YouTube videos, did not work/appear on my latest YouTube video upload. It worked/appeared on legacy videos, but not on newly uploaded videos. When I contacted support about this, they couldn't tell me why this was happening, nor did they address my concern. They basically said "sometimes this feature will be available in videos, sometimes it won't be - it's random." If that's the case, this is not something I can direct my customers to use.

Worst.. when just connected with the Shopify account the products were getting approved. and after 2-3 days it was showing as Misrepresentation policy violated. No proper clarification is provided. just the robotic email received that to visit the policy page and read all over again ang again. it would have been better if there are specific issues have been mentioned. so that as an individual handling all the things can manage and correct the things which is causing issue. instead of just copy pasting the same email. i know nothing right is going to happen. just in words a message full of formality include an apology and our our team will look into this. or is looking into the concern or some same repetitive bot messages.

Trop de bugs. Automatisation defectueuse à revoir. Un jour votre domaine est parqué, puis accepté apres de nombreuses demandes puis retirer à nouveau le lendemain...

Suddenly my products disappeared and I cannot reach anyone from support. Very frustrating to say the least.
