Store features break silently after updates, no alert
Store features and app integrations break silently after an update or settings change, and merchants get no notice

What's going wrong
Merchants across several Shopify apps and the Buy Button channel report that working features stop functioning after platform or app updates, or after a settings change, and nothing tells the owner. Cart drawers, upsell bundles, discount tools and subscription integrations quietly stop working or stop recording data, so lost sales can go unnoticed for days. Embeds on blog posts and external sites also fail when revisited long after publication. Small stores without technical staff are hit hardest, and owners usually learn of failures from missing orders or from customers. The opportunity is an independent monitor that tests live storefront widgets, integrations, checkout and discounts after every change and alerts the owner the moment something breaks.
