Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureBarrier Watch opens your shop in a real browser every week and writes down what it finds, with dates: when a problem appeared, when you fixed it, when a check confirmed the fix, and when it came back after a theme update. Compliance is work, not a badge. We do not certify your shop; we keep the record you show anyone who asks what you did about accessibility.
Run an accessibility audit of your store against WCAG and EN 301 549, the standard behind the European Accessibility Act (EAA). The scanner loads the pages a shopper meets (home, product, collection, cart, search, policies) in a real browser and lists each issue in plain language: the element, the pages, and the fix. Nothing in a report is hidden.
- Weekly automated checks — your shop is looked at even when you forget
- Every finding dated: when it appeared, when it was fixed, when it returned
- A dated record to show for ADA, WCAG and EAA compliance work
- An accessibility statement built from your own record, ready to publish

- Shows the WCAG and EN 301 549 references a finding maps to, or says it has none
- Re-checks the storefront when you publish a theme, and on a schedule
- An accessibility statement for your storefront, and a note when to review it
