"Free" in the Shopify app world usually means "free trial" or "free but useless."
We tested every shoppable video app claiming to be free. Here's the truth — and why SwipeReel is the best free shoppable video app with unlimited videos and feeds.
What "Free" Actually Means (for Most Apps)
- Free trial: 7-14 days, then you pay
- Free tier: 3-5 videos, 1 feed — useless
- Actually free: Full features, no time limit (rare)
