Virtual try-on in Hindi

Hindi shoppers and your product pages

Hindi is an official language of India's central government and the everyday language of much of northern India. It is written in Devanagari, a left-to-right script in which characters hang from a horizontal headstroke and consonants combine into conjunct forms. That makes font support a practical concern: a theme whose typefaces lack proper Devanagari coverage will render Hindi text badly or not at all. Hindi also distinguishes levels of address — the respectful aap versus the informal tum — so the register of your storefront copy deserves a deliberate decision.

What Looksy's language support covers

Hindi appears in the enumeration of 47 supported languages on Looksy's Shopify App Store listing. The listing does not specify translation depth — whether the shopper-facing widget, the merchant dashboard, or both are covered — so confirm it on your own store rather than assuming. The Free plan's unlimited try-ons make that check cost nothing: open a product page and see exactly what a Hindi-speaking shopper gets. The heart of the feature is an image, not text — a shopper seeing themselves in your product — and that crosses any script barrier.

Setting up for Hindi-speaking shoppers

Add Hindi as a published language in Shopify's store settings, then drop in Looksy's try-on block from the theme editor — it is a theme app extension, so no theme code edits are needed and uninstalling is clean. Test thoroughly on the Free plan before you promote anything: Devanagari places real demands on fonts, so check every piece of microcopy around the widget for missing glyphs, broken conjuncts, or clipped headstrokes, and verify the layout holds on the small screens most shoppers will use.

The try-on flow in any language

In Hindi as in any language, the flow is the same: a shopper uploads one photo and sees the result on the product page in roughly 20 seconds — no app, no account, no camera permission. They can retry with a new photo, leave feedback, and download or share the image. Plans: Free with unlimited try-ons, Looksy branding, and up to $100 in additional revenue; Starter at $14.99 per month; Growth at $29; Scale at $79 with realtime video try-on. Usage-based billing runs through Shopify and there are no contracts.
