Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureMost Shopify merchants have 10-20 apps installed with no clear picture of what they spend or which ones slow their store. AppStack scans your active theme and shows every detected app with its spend, page speed impact, and a recommendation on whether to keep it. Works with analytics, review, chat, upsell, and marketing apps. Most stores find savings in the first scan.
Store Health audits eight areas of your store in one read-only scan: theme code, scripts (including leftover code from uninstalled apps), broken links, product SEO, AI visibility, discounts, files and metafields. Issues are ranked by priority, and code issues show the exact file and line, so you or your developer know what to fix first. Scan on demand or on a schedule, compare runs, and export PDF or JSON.
