Frequently asked questions

Is there a free plan, or do I need to pay from day one?

Yes, there is a genuinely useful free plan that includes unlimited product page timers and unlimited top bar timers, up to 1,000 monthly views. Paid plans start at $6.99/month (Starter) and go up to $29.99/month (Professional), each with a 7-day free trial. Annual billing saves 20% across all paid tiers.

Will this app slow down my store?

Merchants specifically call out the app's fast load speed as a differentiator. One reviewer noted it 'loads fast, not like other apps where it pushes the page down,' and that 'the bar timer loads instantly with no delay, like it's part of the theme.' The app holds a 'Built for Shopify' badge, meaning it meets Shopify's highest standards for performance and integration.

Does it work with my existing theme, and can I customize it to match my store's design?

Yes — the app is highly customizable, letting merchants adjust text, colors, fonts, animations, and placement without any coding. It also supports Custom CSS for advanced styling. Multiple merchants report the timers integrate seamlessly with their store designs, and the app works with popular page builders like PageFly Landing Page Builder.

Where can I place the countdown timers — just a top bar, or other locations too?

The app supports timers in multiple locations: announcement/top bar, bottom bar, product pages, cart pages, landing pages, and even marketing emails. The free plan covers unlimited product page and top bar timers; cart timers and email timers are available on the Essential plan ($9.99/month) and above.

Does it integrate with Klaviyo or other email marketing tools?

Yes. The app officially integrates with Klaviyo, Omnisend, Seguno, and Yotpo for email marketing and SMS, allowing you to embed countdown timers directly in your email campaigns to reinforce urgency. It also works with PageFly and the Shopify Admin.

What do other merchants say about the support team?

Support is consistently praised across reviews. Merchants describe responses as near-instant, with one multi-brand merchant noting 'almost instant response to any issue raised — exactly how App Dev teams should be.' The app has a 5.0-star overall rating from 1,397 reviews, with 97% being 5-star ratings. Note: support is email-based rather than live chat.

What scheduling and timing options are available — can I set it up for recurring sales or one-time events?

The app supports a wide range of scheduling modes: fixed end date, daily recurring, evergreen fixed-minute (resets per visitor session), session-based, one-time, and event-based timers. Scheduled and recurring timers are available from the Starter plan ($6.99/month) upward, making it flexible for flash sales, BFCM campaigns, product launches, and ongoing daily promotions.
