Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureSelling abroad means your product names, fabrics and fits need to make sense to shoppers in their language. Idiom uses AI guided by a fashion glossary and your brand voice to translate your store. You choose the tone, the form of address and the regional variant of each language, and add custom terms or words to leave untranslated. Every translation can be reviewed and edited by hand.
Vocabil translates your store so shoppers can browse and buy in their own language. Translate products with their options, metafields and SEO fields, plus collections, pages, blogs, menus, policies and your theme texts. Edit a translation next to the original before saving it, or translate everything missing in one go.

FAQ
Idiom and Vocabil: common questions
- Is Idiom or Vocabil cheaper?
- Both list a free plan. Shoplist compares base prices only between monthly plans in the same currency; usage charges and annual plans vary, so check each plan’s limits.
- What features does each app list that the other doesn’t?
- Idiom lists 4 the others don’t mention, such as Auto-redirect, SEO translation, Switcher design, URL translation. Vocabil lists 1 the others don’t mention, such as Professional translation. A feature missing from a listing may still be supported; this compares what each App Store listing says.
- Where does this comparison’s data come from?
- Shoplist crawls Shopify storefronts to detect which apps each store runs, and reads each app’s Shopify App Store listing for reviews, pricing, features and integrations. Store counts are as of Nov 13, 2026; estimated figures are labeled.
How Shoplist compares apps
Store counts come from Shoplist’s crawl of Shopify storefronts, which detects the apps each store runs; they are as of Nov 13, 2026. Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
