Shopify Search & Discovery

Nov. 19, 2025

This pathetic 5,000 product limit is a total joke in late 2025, once your collection hits 5,001 items, EVERY filter vanishes completely. No price, no brand, no size, no fitment, no vehicle compatibility – nothing. Customers get dumped onto an endless, unsearchable wall of products and immediately abandon cart. I sell alloy wheels and vehicle parts: a single "All Wheels" collection blows past 10k–20k variants in days. Filters die instantly, forcing me to hack the site into hundreds of tiny, stupid sub-collections ("Wheels – Brand A 17-inch", "Wheels, Brand B Black", etc.). The navigation is now a confusing nightmare, looks like a cheap amateur site, SEO is destroyed, and customers rage-quit because they can't find anything. Conversions? Obliterated. Bounce rate? Through the roof. Support tickets? Exploded with "your site is broken" complaints. Shopify's official "fix" is to split everything, yeah, thanks for killing the customer experience on every automotive, electronics, or fashion store with actual inventory. This limit hasn't budged in years despite thousands begging for 50k+. Total garbage. Avoid this "free" app like the plague and pay for a real third-party solution that isn't stuck in 2015. Shopify, remove this insulting 5k cap NOW or admit you don't want serious merchants. One star is generous.

Absolutely terrible - I cannot believe you can't filter by tags. Highly recommend you stay far away from this app and use a different filtering and recommendation system, especially if you have many SKUs

All of my recommended products on every product in my store was reset to some random default with no warning, giving me hours if not weeks of work to do. Editing to now mention that changes to the recommended products are not sticking. The app is showing random products in the recommended section and there is no way to edit it. This is really, really frustrating. I've been wondering why sales have been down the last few days, now I know why. The "hide default" products is not working.

I have never used such app, there is no way to show what I customised for my customers which is unacceptable.

I spent an hour trying to get this app working with basic filters, and it was nothing but dead ends. Total waste of time. This app is a steaming pile of garbage, shame on the developers for releasing something this broken.

Yes, the app is free, but it’s missing a lot of important functionalities. For example, you can’t set the “in stock” filter to be checked by default, you can’t display available variants directly on the collection page, and there’s no quick buy option. The list goes on.

Unfortunately the filter of sizes does not work at all. Even though we have selected for out of stock merchandise not to show up, it still does. Additionally, it fails to filter sizes properly. Not recommended

Very bad users experience and the fact that I cannot customize URLs is stupid. Have you looked at your URLs after createing filter? They look like this "filter.v.t.shopify.theme=gid%3A%2F%2Fshopify%2FTaxonomyValue%". Who wants to have these URLs in their website?

The app is very limited. Number of products is max 5000. If you have more than 5000 products, the filters are not shown on your page. Because of this, a lot of products are not shown.

Stacking connection to app. need to go somewhere else and then back !! AND takes time !!!

Can't disable the semantic search anymore, it's a terrible feature. Products can't be find by SKU any more.. what a downgrade :(

very basic - lacks ability to create filter based on product tag... even though help guide says it can do filter based on tags....

I'm giving this APP a single-star rating due to the limitations in the available filter count. There are businesses, such as mine that need more than 25 filters and we should be able to group filters by collections. Shopify spent a lot of energy doing this past Winter's updates but they missed a big one by not updating this APP to make it user-friendly for all businesses. I sell cameras and various other photography equipment and I can use up 25 filters just on cameras alone. Can we get an APP update?

Rubbish! It looks to me that this filter must be applied site-wide. Why oh why has Shopify ended the funcionality of just adding specific tags that are automatically grouped. Now we can't customise filters within a collection. It was far easier the other way around. How are we supposed to give good user expereince if we can't offer basic filtering inside each collection!!!!!

The app is really good, but with 1 main very important limitation. The filters that are shown on the storefront are limited to 25. This is huge limitation, considering if you have different sorts of products and categories. I urge the developers to remove that limitation asap
