How do I add virtual try-on to my Shopify store?

Install a virtual try-on app from the Shopify App Store, enable it on the products you want, and place the try-on entry point on your product page. With Looksy that is a theme app extension, so there is no theme code to edit.

The install itself

Every try-on app in this category installs through the Shopify App Store, so Shopify handles billing, permissions and uninstall. What differs is what happens next. An app built as a theme app extension shows up in your theme editor as a block you position. An app that asks you to paste a snippet into your theme’s Liquid is editing files you will have to unwind later. Looksy installs as a theme app extension and removes cleanly on uninstall.

Which products to enable first

You do not have to switch try-on on across the whole catalog on day one, and you should not. Pick a handful of products that represent your best-selling category and start there. It keeps credit usage predictable while you judge output quality, and it gives you a clean before-and-after on the pages you care most about.

What the shopper sees

On an enabled product page the shopper gets a try-on entry point. They upload one photo and get back an image of the product on themselves, in the browser, with no app download and no account. That flow is the real thing you are evaluating: whether the result looks like your product on a real person.

Before you call it done

Check the entry point on mobile as well as desktop, confirm it appears on every product template you actually use, and read the app’s privacy policy against what your own store policy tells shoppers about photo handling.
