See every featureGhostSweep scans your Shopify theme to detect code left behind by uninstalled apps — the "ghost code" that silently slows down your store. 3 detection methods (dead link detection, orphan resource scanning, orphan file matching) identify residual snippets, sections, and assets with 3-level risk classification (Safe/Caution/Danger).
When you delete apps, they often leave behind unused code that slows down your site. This app securely audits your theme to find these hidden ghost scripts so you can easily remove them. It also scans your tracking pixels to ensure your ad attribution is firing correctly without duplicates. Finally, it analyzes your overall site speed to pinpoint the exact heavy images and videos causing performance drops.
