Report questions
What period does this Shopify app report cover?
The report covers the 28-day window from Jun 5, 2026 through Jul 2, 2026. Counts are computed from Shoplist's current public Shopify app metrics and app-store change capture.
What does Shoplist mean by detected installs and uninstalls?

Does this report cover every Shopify store?

How are category labels selected?
Shoplist assigns each app a deterministic public category label from available taxonomy data, preferring category, then subcategory, then tag title when a broader category is unavailable.
