Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureAwayly closes your store on the dates you choose, every week, or for Shabbat and Yom Tov by your city's sunset times, and reopens it on its own in your store's time zone. While you're closed, checkout refuses orders, including Buy it now, Shop Pay and direct checkout links. Shoppers keep browsing and see a bar, pop-up or full page that says when you're back.
Store owners often forget to update seasonal banners, leaving Christmas promotions up into January. Holidayify themes your storefront for each holiday on a schedule you control, then reverts everything once it ends. Turn the holiday banner into a sales tool: add a Shop now button, a discount code shoppers can copy or apply in one tap, and a countdown to your deadline.
