Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureStockBridge keeps inventory in sync across all your stores automatically. When stock changes in one store after an order, refund, or restock, quantities update in real time on every connected store. Match products by SKU or barcode, set buffer stock, and choose one-way or two-way sync per store or product group. See drift reports and a full activity log so you always know what changed and why.
Shopify does not expose per-location inventory to your theme, so shoppers cannot see what is on the shelf in each store. Zarbo Stock by Store writes the on-hand quantity at every location into a JSON metafield on each variant, kept current as inventory moves through real-time webhooks. Use the metafield the app creates, or point it at one you already have.
