Built for
A good fit for
- Stores with returning mobile shoppers who want one-tap access
- Brands that want an app-like presence without building or maintaining a native app
Not built for
- Push notifications: a Shopify app cannot add web push to your storefront
- Listing in the Apple App Store or Google Play
- Offline browsing or a separate app design; shoppers see your normal storefront
You will need
- A Shopify Online Store theme that supports app embeds
- A square PNG icon of at least 512 × 512 pixels, hosted on https (Shopify Files works)
Is this a native app?
No. It makes your Shopify storefront installable as a web app. Shoppers add it to their home screen and it opens full screen with your icon and name, without the App Store or Google Play.
Does it send push notifications?
No. Web push needs a service worker served from your storefront’s own domain, which a Shopify app cannot provide. We do not sell or promise push.
How do iPhone shoppers install it?
Safari does not show an install prompt, so the banner explains the steps: tap Share, then Add to Home Screen.
Do I need to edit theme code?
No. Turn on the app embed in the theme editor under App embeds. To remove it, turn the embed off.
Can I change or hide the banner?
Yes. Set the banner title and text in Branding, or turn the banner off and keep the store installable from the browser menu. A shopper who dismisses it does not see it again for 7 days.
What does the install funnel count?
On Advanced, the last 30 days of manifest loads, banners shown, banners accepted, installs and launches from the home screen. Events are counts per store; no shopper is identified.
