## Description

Covers 29,501 apps, 950,453 reviews and 535,966 merchants by its own count, updated daily. Apps that leave the App Store and reviews Shopify removes stay in its archive, marked as delisted or removed. Reviews are searchable in full text, with developer replies and how long the merchant used the app. A free account unlocks the merchants' store domains and contact emails, and a board to track outreach.

## Watch for

No company or person is named anywhere on the site, and it has no terms of use, no privacy policy and no pricing page. It hands out merchant contact emails it found by itself, so anyone writing to them should check the consent rules first. It keeps reviews that Shopify took down. It is free, and nothing on the site says how it pays for itself.
