How does Looksy virtual try-on work?

On an eligible product page, Looksy automatically places the Try On button over the main product image. A shopper opens Looksy there, provides an image through the browser flow, and receives a generated visualization in the same product-image area. The result is intended to support product visualization, not provide an exact fit measurement. The Shopify app embed turns this behavior on for the theme. It is not a separate section or app block that merchants place on each product page.

What information affects the result?

  • the selected product and variant;
  • product imagery and data;
  • the shopper’s input image;
  • pose, framing, lighting, and occlusion;
  • processing and network conditions.

What should merchants verify?

  1. The intended product and variant are passed into the flow.
  2. The button appears over the main product image without blocking important controls.
  3. The generated preview appears in the same product-image area.
  4. Instructions set realistic expectations.
  5. Representative shopper inputs produce an acceptable experience.
  6. Errors and retries are understandable.
  7. The shopper returns to the correct product state.
  8. Theme, mobile, and performance behavior are acceptable.
