Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureGroupify helps merchants connect separate products and display them as swatches on product pages, collection pages, and search results. It is useful for stores that manage colors, styles, materials, or finishes as separate products instead of native variants. Merchants can keep independent product URLs, inventory, media, and SEO while giving shoppers a simple way to switch between related products.
Show every color, size, material or style as a separate product card in collections, search results and homepage sections. Variantify changes only how variants appear on your storefront. It does not create duplicate Shopify products or require theme code changes. Choose which variants appear in each collection.
- Link separate products into visual swatch groups
- Show color or image swatches on product pages
- Display compact swatches on collection product cards
- Customize swatch styles for each product group
- Customize how variant titles appear in collections (e.g. “T-Shirt – Blue – M”)
- Create collections that include only the variants you want — selected by SKU.
- Improve the browsing experience and create a faster path to purchase.
- Choose the option you want to split variants by — like color or size
