Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureBuilt for the moment an ADA demand letter or an accessibility deadline arrives. One scan finds the issues automated checks can see, grouped by cause, and AccessComply writes the fixes into your theme after you approve them: contrast, form labels, headings, skip links, keyboard focus. Originals are saved and each page is checked again. You get a dated remediation plan, a fix record and an accessibility statement.
Turn lookbooks, product photos, diagrams, and store guides into interactive images. Merchants select up to five products per block and position matching hotspots in the theme editor. Customers can open product cards, follow product links, or add available items to cart. Hotspots support keyboard navigation, visible focus, Escape to close, 44-pixel touch targets, and mobile-aware card positioning.
