One job, done properly
Every app here solves a single problem well rather than nine adequately. That is why there are several small apps instead of one suite with a settings page nobody finishes reading.
Shopify apps, made by Appnux
The Shopify apps you would build yourself, if you had the time
Appnux makes focused apps for Shopify merchants — one job each, done properly. Tight in scope, quick on the storefront, and honest about what they can see.

The catalogue
What Appnux is building
One app is finished and going through App Store submission. Two more are fully specified. Everything is listed with its honest state — nothing here is described as available when it is not.
Why Appnux
Four rules every app here is held to
They are not marketing lines. They are the constraints that decide what gets built and what gets cut.
The least access that works
An app should ask for what its job requires and nothing more. Store Locator Pro requests zero Shopify data scopes; the optional ones are requested only if you switch on the feature that needs them.
Your storefront stays quick
The storefront is your customer's experience, not somewhere to park a script. Widgets load on the page they are placed on, fetch only what is on screen, and animate on properties that do not force a reflow.
Built to be lived with
Setup you can finish yourself, wording you can rewrite, styling that is not paywalled to the top tier, and a real person answering support — because there is no support team to hide behind.
For merchants
How this helps your store
Four things the apps are built to change about how your storefront behaves.
Answer the question that costs you the sale
“Where can I buy this?”, “do you deliver to me?”, “does that store have it?” — these get asked on every storefront and answered badly on most. Each Appnux app takes one of them and answers it on the page, before the shopper gives up.
Work from the data you already keep
Nobody wants a second place to maintain their locations. Import the spreadsheet you have, keep syncing from the sheet your team already edits, or pull straight from the locations in your Shopify admin.
Look like your brand, not like an app
Colours, sizing, every visible label and custom CSS — available on the entry plan rather than held back for the top one. No badge advertising us on your storefront.
Find out what shoppers could not find
Search analytics show what people looked for and where, including the searches that came back empty. That is the half that tells you where to open next, or which retailer to sign.
How it works
Three steps, and none of them need a developer
Find the app that matches the problem
Each app is described by the merchant problem it solves, not by a feature list. If none of them fit, say so — that is useful to know.
Install it and set it up yourself
Guided setup inside the Shopify admin, storefront blocks you add from the theme editor, and imports that handle a real spreadsheet. No developer, no snippet to paste, no cloud console.
Change it, or tell us what is missing
Rewrite the labels, restyle the widget, and send us the thing you wish it did. Feature requests from merchants are how the roadmap actually gets written.
A look inside
The storefront your shoppers see, the admin you work in
Store Locator Pro is the app furthest along, so it is the one shown here — the widget that goes on your theme, and the screen where you manage it.

Illustrative interface previews, drawn to match the shipped layout. They are not photographs of the running app, and the places and figures shown are examples rather than real merchant data. Captured screenshots will replace these before the App Store listing goes live.
On the bench
What comes next
Each of these is a scoped concept with a real merchant problem behind it. None of them is built yet, and none has a release date — if one solves something you are living with, say so and it moves up the list.
Questions
Questions before you commit to anything
Not answered here? Ask us directly — a person reads every message.
Who is behind Appnux?
Appnux is a small independent software business. Its apps are built and supported by the same person who works on real Shopify storefronts day to day — which is where most of the problems these apps solve were first noticed.
Are your apps on the Shopify App Store yet?
Not yet. Store Locator Pro is built and running and is going through submission; the rest are earlier. That is why you will see “Get early access” on this site rather than an install button — when an app is genuinely installable, this site will say so.
What do the apps cost?
Store Locator Pro has four plans from $9.99 to $69.99 a month, separated only by how many locations you need, with every feature on every plan and a 7-day free trial. The other apps are not built yet, so they have no price — and we would rather leave that blank than guess at it here.
What data can an Appnux app see in my store?
As little as its job allows. Store Locator Pro requests zero Shopify data scopes, so it cannot read your products, orders or customers at all; two optional features ask for a specific permission only if you turn them on. Each app's privacy page sets out exactly what it stores and for how long.
Do I need a developer to use these?
No. Storefront widgets are added as blocks from the theme editor, setup runs as a guided checklist inside the Shopify admin, and appearance is edited through settings. Custom CSS is there if you want it, but nothing requires it.
What happens when I need help?
You email a person and get a person. Support runs through one inbox and the aim is a reply within one to two business days. Store Locator Pro also carries an assistant and a setup checklist inside the app itself.
Can I ask for a feature, or a whole app?
Yes, and it is welcome. Several apps on the roadmap started as a problem someone described. Use the contact form, pick “Something else”, and tell us what is not working on your storefront today.
Get in touch
Tell us what your storefront cannot do yet
Whether you want early access to Store Locator Pro, an app that does not exist yet, or just want to know when the next one lands — there is one inbox and it is read by the person who builds these.
Or email support@appnux.com — replies within one to two business days.
