Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureEvery sold-out product page is a lost sale. Griffin adds a Notify Me When Available button to out-of-stock products so shoppers join a restock waitlist instead of leaving. When inventory comes back, Griffin emails everyone automatically, with your logo, colours and sender name, in your shoppers’ language. It’s variant-aware and turns on from your theme’s App embeds in one click.
Restock Pro helps merchants recover demand when products sell out. Shoppers can join a waitlist from the product page, and Restock Pro emails them when that item or variant is back in stock. Merchants manage waitlists in the app, review demand by product, and customise the storefront widget and restock email. Setup uses a theme app embed, so merchants can enable it without editing theme code.
