Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureAuto Schedule has run merchants' timed changes since 2019 — prices, BFCM discounts, publishing, tags, banners, theme blocks and countdown timers. Run product drops: items stay visible but locked behind a Coming soon button then unlock at the exact drop moment — purchases are blocked at checkout until then. Set price floors with email alerts, schedule live or snapshot collections, and revert any run in one click.
Schedule It runs your store changes on a timer, so a sale starts and ends exactly when you want without you being online. Schedule sales, product, collection and theme publishing, discount codes, inventory, product tags, and a storefront announcement bar. Group them into one automation with a start and end time, and it reverts everything automatically when the sale ends.
