This month, we’re all about trust, visibility, and platform readiness. We’ve hit a major milestone with our app certifications, rolled out visual updates to give you more control, and completed important background maintenance to keep everything running smoothly.
From real-time design previews in Also Bought and Keep & Share Your Cart to platform-wide compatibility updates, these changes are built to help you manage your store with greater confidence and ease.
Built for Shopify status renewed for a second year!
We are proud to share that Frequently Bought Together, Also Bought, Shipping Rates Calculator Plus, and Keep & Share Your Cart have renewed their Built for Shopify status for the second year in a row.
This recognition highlights our continued commitment to Shopify’s quality standards and to building reliable, well-maintained apps for merchants. It also motivates us to keep improving our apps year after year, with better experiences, stronger integrations, and ongoing support.
Brand new live previews for visual customization
We understand how important it is to perfect your storefront's look without risking the live customer experience. This month, we've brought interactive live editing to two of our core apps.
Live Preview for Also Bought
Also Bought now includes a Live Preview feature that lets merchants review widget design changes before saving them.

The preview uses sample recommendations and reflects the colors and appearance of the current Shopify theme, making it easier to test visual adjustments safely. This helps merchants fine-tune the widget with more confidence before checking the final result on their storefront.

Live Preview for Keep & Share Your Cart
Also, Keep & Share Your Cart now offers a Live Preview so merchants can see how the sharing widget will look while they customize it.

The preview makes it easier to review the title, alignment, message, icon style, icon size, and colors in real time. This gives merchants a clearer and faster way to adjust the widget’s appearance before saving their changes.
