The caveats
Shoper Spy. Built by ReConvert Ltd, which sells a post-purchase upsell app to Shopify merchants, now as Upsell.com. The listing says it "may get affiliate commission from installs initiated by the extension", so the apps it points you to can be paid placements. Its Chrome privacy disclosure lists personal, financial, authentication and communication data, with no reason given. No count of detectable apps is published. Like every detector, it only sees apps with code on the storefront.
TrendTrack. It is made for merchants who study what other stores sell, not for app developers. Its store filters are traffic, growth, creation date and theme. Nothing on the site says you can list the stores that run a given app, which is the search an app developer would pay for. Starter allows 5 store lookups a week. The operator is HVSCALE SERVICES FZCO, a Dubai free zone company named only in the terms of service. The 100,000+ users and 1 million stores are its own figures.
