How it sells itself

Customers click into products to check if their size is available. When sold out, they return to the collection and try another product. After several attempts, shoppers become frustrated and leave your store. This app displays the availability of variants on the collection page product images. Variant options appear as active buttons while sold out variants are clearly marked.

Most themes hide variants behind dropdowns - shoppers don't see your colors or sizes until they click into each product. Smart Variants renders every variant as its own card directly in your collection grid. Split by any product option, filter by stock or sale state, and apply different rules per collection. Variant cards inherit your theme's styling automatically, so it works without theme code or designer time.

Key points
  • Display variant availability buttons directly on collection page product images
  • Customise button colours, positioning, borders, and hover effects for your brand
  • Show multiple product options simultaneously such as Size, Colour, and Material
  • Control mobile product grid layout with 1 or 2 column display options
  • Split products by any option - Color, Size, Material - on collection pages
  • Different split rules for different collections, no theme code required
  • Filter variants by stock, sale state, tags, or product type
  • Theme-aware cards that match your existing product card design

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 Oct 13, 2026 for LGD, Oct 14, 2026 for Smart Variants. 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.
