Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureBox-smart helps merchants simplify packing by automatically selecting the smallest box that fits each order. Merchants configure product dimensions and available box sizes once, and the app calculates the most suitable box whenever an order is placed. Box-smart then updates the order with the selected box, reducing manual packing decisions and improving fulfillment consistency.
Cartonizer turns Shopify orders into clear packing plans. It uses product dimensions, weights, carton sizes, and packing rules to determine which cartons to use and what goes in each one. Component bundles can be expanded into physical products and packed together, while sealed supplier cartons remain intact. Configure your products and cartons once, then calculate the packing plan for each order.
