Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureMeshy 3D creates 3D models from the product photos already in your store, so you do not need a 3D artist, a scanner, or a new photo shoot. Choose a product, add up to four angles, and review the model before it goes live. Generate a matching look for each color variant, then publish to your product page, where photos, videos, and the 3D view share one gallery.
Plinth uses AI to turn your product photos into 3D models. Pick a product and up to 5 of its photos, review the model, enter one real measurement and publish. The model is saved in the product's own media, so your theme shows it in the gallery and phones get View in your space at the real size. Nothing to add to your theme, no view limits, and your models stay on your products even if you remove the app.
