Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureHighlight featured products and share them with unique links to help merchants promote key products and support marketing campaigns. Product Pin generates shareable collection URLs and uses a lightweight theme app extension to display pinned products in the storefront. It works with the store's existing theme structure and does not rely on third-party storefront widgets.
SortLock keeps selected products in fixed collection positions while unpinned products continue following a native sort rule. Choose from six supported collection orders, then add pins for launches, seasonal products, and featured items. SortLock reconciles changes in the background, records activity and conflicts, and restores the original collection sort order when you unlock.
