How it sells itself

The easiest thing you can do is to play background music, which might sound a little cliche, but it always grabs the attention in a good way. Once installed, the app allows you to upload a media file that will be played in the background of your store.

Especially if your content is long and descriptive, scroll to top buttons make it easy for the user to go back to the top of the page with just one click. Modern sites have the scroll-to-top function built-in. Now, if your Shopify theme doesn't have the scroll to the top button as a default function, the Smooth Scroll To Top will help you.

Key points
  • Show background music only on the homepage or on all public pages
  • Show background music also on mobile browsers
  • Resume playback to the last heard point after leaving the site and coming back
  • Add a Scroll To Top button to your store in just one click!
  • Help visitors navigate your store with a scroll progress bar
  • Fully customize the button's color, shape, size, position, and much more
  • The button is shown only when scrolling up and down is possible

How Shoplist compares apps

Store counts come from Shoplist’s crawl of Shopify storefronts, which detects the apps each store runs; they are as of Nov 7, 2026. Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads. Read the methodology.
