Merchants highly recommend this app for its one-click updates and automatic code retention, enhancing ease of use. The support team is praised for their responsiveness and efficiency in resolving issues. Features like draft copies of themes for review before going live and AI-assisted updates that capture manual edits are particularly appreciated. Regular compatibility updates with Shopify and time-saving benefits are also noted, fostering merchant loyalty.

We have an old Parallax theme which has limited functionality, so we got the app to add the FAQs to our product pages.

I was able to add it to the product pages and it works if you want to add generic FAQs to the pages. However, to get product specific FAQs on each product page you need to add individual metafields for the sub-titles, then each question & each answer. We have close to 100 products so that means hundreds of metafields.

Would great to see this feature added.

We have added the scrolling images and collection list sections from Theme Updater & Backups to our website. They definitely enhance the appearance of our website. We had some minor technical glitches with scrolling images not displaying correctly with our theme that tech support was able to resolve.

The updater works very well as I have used it for three updates with no issues. I would appreciate more details in the release notes.
