Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureGoogle silently disapproves products the moment a GTIN, price, or apparel attribute is missing or invalid, and the official channel only shows cryptic error codes. Why Disapproved audits your catalog against Google Merchant Center rules (29 checks): every finding comes with a plain-English reason, the exact Shopify field to change, and a one-click link to fix it in your admin.
Google and Meta won't list a product with no image or brand. Meta also requires a description, and Google may show a product less when its description, barcode or category is missing. In your admin they still look published. Feedwatch scans your catalog and ranks the affected products by listed price. Fix them here: add a barcode, apply the categories AI suggests, or let it draft a missing description.
