## Quick Troubleshooting Guide

Most issues can be resolved quickly with these common solutions. If you need additional help, contact [support@looksy.ai](mailto:support@looksy.ai).

## Button Not Appearing

### Issue: "Try On" button doesn't show on product pages

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Solution 1: Check App Embed">
    **Most common cause**

    1. Go to **Online Store → Themes** in Shopify admin
    2. Click **"Customize"** on your active theme
    3. Find **"App embeds"** in the left sidebar
    4. Ensure **"Looksy Virtual Try-On"** is toggled **ON**
    5. Click **"Save"**

    The button should appear within 1-2 minutes.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Solution 2: Verify Product is Enabled">
    **Check Looksy dashboard**

    1. Open your Looksy dashboard
    2. Go to **"Products"** or **"Collections"**
    3. Verify the product is enabled for virtual try-on
    4. If not, enable it and save

    Button appears only on enabled products.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Solution 3: Clear Cache">
    **Browser caching issue**

    1. Clear your browser cache
    2. Test in incognito/private mode
    3. Try a different browser
    4. Check on mobile device

    If button appears in incognito, it's a caching issue.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Solution 4: Check Theme Compatibility">
    **Theme conflict**

    1. Test with a default Shopify theme (Dawn)
    2. If button appears, your theme may have conflicts
    3. Contact support with your theme name
    4. We'll provide theme-specific guidance

    Most themes work fine, but custom themes may need adjustments.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Upload Problems

### Issue: Can't upload photos or camera doesn't work

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Camera Permission Denied">
    **On mobile devices:**

    1. Check browser/app permissions
    2. **iOS:** Settings → Safari → Camera → Allow
    3. **Android:** Settings → Apps → Browser → Permissions → Camera → Allow
    4. Reload the page and try again

    **Alternative:** Use "Upload from library" instead of camera
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Upload Fails or Hangs">
    **Possible causes:**

    * **Large file size** (> 5MB): Compress photo before uploading
    * **Slow internet**: Wait longer or try on better connection
    * **Browser issue**: Try different browser
    * **Image format**: Use JPG or PNG (not HEIC, WebP, etc.)

    **Solution:** Resize image to \< 2MB and retry.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Photo Format Not Supported">
    **Supported formats:** JPG, JPEG, PNG

    **Not supported:** HEIC, WebP, GIF, BMP

    **Solution:**

    1. Convert photo to JPG/PNG
    2. On iPhone: Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible
    3. Use online converters (e.g., convertio.co)
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Upload Button Doesn't Respond">
    **Possible causes:**

    * JavaScript error on page
    * Ad blocker interference
    * Browser extension conflict

    **Solution:**

    1. Disable ad blockers and extensions
    2. Check browser console for errors (F12)
    3. Try incognito/private mode
    4. Contact support with error details
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Poor Try-On Results

### Issue: Virtual try-on looks inaccurate or unrealistic

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Result Doesn't Look Realistic">
    **Possible causes:**

    * Need multiple product angles for better accuracy
    * Selfie doesn't show enough body
    * Very revealing product (protection against misuse)

    **Solution:**

    1. Add multiple product images (max 4) showing different angles and details
    2. Use a full body shot with only one person in the photo
    3. Review [image requirements guide](/product-setup/image-requirements)
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Colors Don't Match">
    **Possible causes:**

    * Screen color calibration differences
    * Lighting in selfie affects color perception
    * Product image has poor color accuracy

    **Solution:**

    1. Use selfie taken in neutral lighting (not yellow/blue tinted)
    2. Verify product image colors are accurate
    3. Consider this a visualization tool, not exact color match
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Garment Placement is Off">
    **Possible causes:**

    * Selfie doesn't show enough body
    * Need multiple product angles for context
    * Very revealing product (may fail to generate)

    **Solution:**

    1. Use a full body shot showing more of the body
    2. Add multiple product images (max 4) with different angles
    3. Disable try-on for very revealing products if needed
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Result Has Artifacts or Distortion">
    **Possible causes:**

    * Very low resolution photos (selfie or product)
    * Complex garment details
    * Heavy compression

    **Solution:**

    1. Use higher resolution photos (min 800px)
    2. Avoid zoomed/cropped selfies
    3. Ensure product images are high quality
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

<Warning>
  If try-on results consistently look poor for a specific product, that product may not be suitable for virtual try-on. Consider disabling it.
</Warning>

## Mobile Issues

### Issue: Problems specific to mobile devices

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Button Too Small to Tap">
    **Solution:**

    The button is automatically optimized for mobile tap targets. If you're experiencing issues, it may be a theme conflict. Contact [support@looksy.ai](mailto:support@looksy.ai) for assistance.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Modal Doesn't Fit Screen">
    **Solution:**

    1. Clear mobile browser cache
    2. Update browser to latest version
    3. Test on different mobile browser
    4. Contact support if issue persists
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Slow Performance on Mobile">
    **Solution:**

    1. Test on WiFi vs cellular (network issue?)
    2. Check if other site elements are slow too
    3. Optimize product images (compress large images)
    4. Review [performance troubleshooting](/troubleshooting/performance)
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Integration Issues

### Issue: Conflicts with theme or other apps

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Button Styling Looks Wrong">
    **Solution:**

    1. Check theme CSS for conflicts
    2. Add custom CSS to fix styling
    3. Use theme editor to adjust settings
    4. See [custom styling guide](/integration/custom-styling)
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Conflicts with Quick View">
    **Solution:**

    1. Ensure Looksy is added to quick view template
    2. Test without quick view to isolate issue
    3. Contact support with theme details
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Works on Desktop but Not Mobile">
    **Solution:**

    1. Verify app embed is enabled in theme settings
    2. Clear mobile browser cache
    3. Test on actual device (not just browser resize)
    4. Contact support if issue persists - app embed works automatically on mobile
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Conflicts with Other Apps">
    **Possible app conflicts:**

    * Page builders (PageFly, Shogun)
    * Wishlist apps
    * Quick view apps
    * Custom product page apps

    **Solution:**

    1. Disable other apps temporarily to test
