Ship your UI extensions in more languages. We removed the 256kb combined limit on locale files.

Long requested and finally here: copy Cart Metafields to the order at checkout completion! 🥳
Cart metafields are the greenpath storage option. I highly recommend switching from cart attributes and checkout metafields. If you’re staying on cart attributes or checkout metafields, what’s your blocker?

• Implement unified branded experiences
📈 Add app pixels
Ensure purchase events are captured:
• Measure conversion and post-purchase events
• Integrate with the Customer Privacy API
• Subscribe from a wide range of events

3 years in the making 🥹
with todays launch 329 apps are available for merchants using (new) customer accounts !
thanks @harleyf for the shout! 🤜🤛
This is a big one. Merchants now have access to Customer Account Extensions.
That means you can add features to customer accounts, like loyalty programs, wishlists, and post-purchase offers, without touching code. Until now, this required edits to the .liquid template. We knew we could make it easier.
Starting today, you can use apps—and there are already hundreds in the App Store. The same way Checkout Extensions lets you customize the checkout experience, Customer Account Extensions let you customize customer accounts.
More customer account updates:
👤 Branded login pages: Design choices, like color and typography, that you make in the checkout and accounts editor will now carry over to login for brand consistency from start to finish. This is a big upgrade from only being able to add your logo.
👤 Customizable header menus: Add, remove and rename pages to make the customer experience easier to navigate.
All of these updates work together to create a smoother logged-in experience for your customers.

Before, to allow customers to manage orders, merchants used several apps *each w/ its own login* 😳
The new sys will allow customers to do everything *w/ one passwordless login* 🥹
Here's what you need to know👇
