Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureShopify keeps no version history for your products. When an app, import, bulk edit or AI tool rewrites your store, the activity log says something changed, never what it said. PriorCopy backs up your products, collections, pages, blog posts, menus, URL redirects and metaobjects every night and shows each change word by word.
An edit goes wrong: a description, a variant, a metafield, an import, and Shopify has no undo. Restory records every product and collection change automatically from the minute it's installed, with your whole catalog backed up as a baseline. See old and new values side by side and put anything back in one click, revert in bulk, or bring back deleted products and collections.
- Word-by-word diff of your product copy, not just “something changed”
- Restore in place, so Shopify IDs survive and nothing downstream breaks
- Every re-created record comes with a remap table naming what to repoint
- Automatic change tracking for every product field, variant, and image
- Searchable timeline with product, collection, field, and date filters
- One-click revert and point-in-time product restore
- Deleted-product recovery with variants and images
