Notification Bell — Changelog

Updates and improvements to Notification Bell, newest first.

Version 1.4 — 5 August 2026

Your bell now speaks your shoppers’ language — and plugs into Shopify Flow.

  • 7 languages — the bell’s built-in text (timestamps, “tap to copy”, countdowns and more) now shows in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, or Brazilian Portuguese, picked automatically from your storefront’s language. Nothing to set up, and it works with Shopify Markets.
  • Shopify Flow triggers — start workflows the moment a visitor clicks a campaign or copies a discount code. When a logged-in customer engages, tag, segment, or email them automatically.
  • Code-copy stats — a new Stats column shows how many shoppers copied each discount code.
  • Translated settings — the app’s theme-editor settings are translated too, matching your admin language.

Version 1.3 — 23 July 2026

Make the bell yours, and a smoother fit on phones.

  • Choose your icon — bell (outline or filled), envelope (open or closed), chat bubble, or upload your own image.
  • Custom icons — pick any image from your Files library. Square, 64–256px, under 50KB works best; larger images are scaled to fit automatically.
  • Better on mobile — an in-header bell now becomes a neat floating button on phones, so it never pushes your cart icon off screen.

Version 1.2 — 19 June 2026

Show your bell right in the store header — a customer-requested option.

  • In-header placement — choose Floating button (default) or In header in the app embed, and the bell slots in beside your cart icon automatically, with no theme code to write.
  • Zero layout shift — the in-header bell loads before the page draws, so nothing jumps as it appears, and it fades in gently.
  • Works across themes — detects modern cart-drawer headers (not just classic cart links), with advanced controls — a header CSS selector and custom CSS — for any theme that needs fine-tuning.

Version 1.1 — 16 June 2026

Onboarding and help improvements to get you live faster.

  • Getting started guide — a new in-app walkthrough takes you from install to a live bell in three steps, reachable any time from the app menu
  • Help & FAQ centre — answers to the most common setup questions, now at our help page
  • Public changelog — this page, so you can always see what's new
