Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureThis app lets you display a satisfying preloader when your site is loading. Add a page loader for the loading screen with smooth animation, upload your logo, add a progress bar and counting percentage, background transitions, and much more. Adjust your loading screen with many preloader options and make it unique. The app uses CSS3, so it won’t imply your site speed unless you upload a large background image.
Scroll Alpha replaces page-by-page navigation on your collection and search pages with smooth, automatic infinite scrolling. Shoppers keep browsing without clicking "next page" or waiting for reloads. Enable it in minutes from the Theme Editor, no coding needed. Choose automatic scroll-triggered loading or a manual "Load more" button, and customize preload distance and labels to match your store.
