[ Reference ]

How it works

A Shopify store's page names its theme in a small script (Shopify.theme) and loads each app from that app's own servers. We read those two things from the home page, nothing else, and keep the answer for 7 days.

What it can't see

A custom theme shows the name its developers gave it. Apps that only run at checkout or on the server are invisible from outside, and a headless store may not name its theme at all.

Questions

About this tool.

How do I find out which Shopify theme a store uses?

Enter its address above. By hand: open the page source and search for « Shopify.theme »; the name is next to it.

Can it detect every app?

Only the ones that load something on the home page: reviews, email pop-ups, subscriptions, upsells, tracking. Back-office apps leave no trace.

Does it work on non-Shopify stores?

It tells you the store is not on Shopify, and names WooCommerce when it sees it.

The tool is free. The ads are the product.

WhatScales shows what your competitors run and scale: every ad as a video, ranked inside its brand each day, with its hook, angle and transcript.
