Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureA bad CSV import or deleted product shouldn't ruin your day. Open Savepoint once after installing to start backups. Each backup is encrypted, stored with two independent providers and checked before it counts. Restore one product or everything: pick a moment, preview, confirm. Products, collections, inventory, pages and theme restore in-app.
You need to update themes, add apps, modify product descriptions, or edit other store content. Each change to your store carries the risk of irreversible data loss.

Review how your store's content and data change over time.
