How it sells itself

Preloop adds a customizable loading animation that displays while your storefront pages load, giving customers a polished first impression instead of a blank screen. Choose from a gallery of preloader styles, then match colors to your brand and adjust the animation speed to fit your theme. Enable it directly from the theme editor with no coding required.

SpeedFlow aggiunge un app embed leggero al tema Shopify per mostrare un preloader brandizzato, rendere piu morbida la navigazione interna e aiutare a preparare le pagine che i clienti potrebbero aprire dopo. I merchant possono scegliere tipo di loader, colori, logo, transizione, durata massima, safe mode, regole di esclusione e prefetch smart.

Key points
  • Choose from 16 loading animations across dots, spinner, and square styles
  • Match your brand with custom background, primary, and secondary colors
  • Control animation speed: "slow", "medium", or "fast" to fit your store's feel
  • Preview every loader live before activating it on your storefront
  • Preloader brandizzato con spinner, barra o logo fade
  • Transizioni leggere per rendere piu fluida la navigazione
  • Prefetch smart dei link interni probabili con safe mode
