Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureSaveLayer is a universal save layer for your whole store. Logged-in shoppers save anything: products, variants, collections, pages, and blog posts, into one or more lists synced across your Online Store, headless storefront, and customer account. Saved data is stored natively as Shopify metaobjects in your store, so it stays private and portable, never locked in a third-party database.
Many shoppers aren't ready to buy on their first visit. XB Wishlist gives them a place to keep that intent and a reason to come back. Shoppers save from product cards, product pages, and the cart, with no account needed. When a saved item drops in price, returns to stock, or runs low, the app emails them through System Mail, SMTP, Klaviyo, or Flow. Analytics show which saved products reach cart and checkout.
