Reviews summary

The reviews are overwhelmingly positive, with most users praising the app for doing exactly what they needed: enabling hover images or second-image mouse-over functionality without hurting page speed. Many reviewers highlight that it is easy to install, works reliably across devices and themes, and solves a problem they struggled to address with other apps or coding workarounds. Customer support is a major strength, repeatedly described as fast, helpful, and effective at resolving issues quickly, sometimes even fixing conflicts caused by other apps. The main negatives are mostly about usability and compatibility rather than core functionality. One detailed review points out that the interface is basic and that product management is cumbersome because there is no filtering by collections or tags, search results include both active and draft products, and image selection must be done manually one by one. Another reviewer mentions a conflict with a quick view feature, and there is also a warning about needing to wait for image optimization apps to process new images before using them as hover images. Overall, users see the app as valuable and effective, but some want better workflow tools and broader compatibility, especially given its price.

This Shopify app stands out from the competition by allowing users to select any image as a second mouse-over picture. It's a fantastic feature and it seems not to compromise the page speed. It took us a while to find an app capable of that. We particularly appreciate that this app enabled us to display our third image, which was a challenge due to another app using the second image for a different purpose. However, there are some areas where the app could(must?!) improve. 1/ The interface, while raw, is easy to navigate. Unfortunately, the app lacks the ability to filter products by collections or tags, making it difficult for users with large catalogs to find the desired reference. The search box works well, but it displays both active and draft products, which can be confusing. 2/ The app currently requires manual, one-by-one image selection, which can be time-consuming. It would be much more efficient if the app allowed users to choose a collection and apply the same settings to all images within it. 3/ There is a known conflict with image optimization apps. If you want to use a newly uploaded image as a mouse-over image, you must wait for your optimization app to process it first. Failing to do this will cause the app to display an error thumbnail instead ...and you will have to reselect all mouse hover images again. While point 3 is manageable, we believe the app should address issues 1 and 2, especially given its relatively high price compared to similar apps. Despite these drawbacks, the app remains an impressive and valuable tool.
