Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureYou 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. Talon Backups automatically saves daily snapshots and keeps a timeline of changes to your store's data: themes, products, collections, orders, customers, and more. Review how your store's content and data change over time.
One bad bulk edit, app update, or AI-assisted change can wipe out hours of work. Unlimited version history on every plan, restore never gated. TimeVault backs up your products, collections, theme code, pages, blogs, and metafields every day, and on demand before risky changes.
