Two things to know first

The app shows shoppers only the images of the variant they pick. For that to work, two switches must be on: App status for each product, and the app embed for each theme. If you still see every image on your store, start with Why is Variant Image Automator still showing all images on my product page?

Opening the app

In your Shopify admin, click Apps, then StarApps Variant Image, which is the app's name in your Shopify admin. It opens on Home. The menu has seven pages: Home, Manage product media, Setup videos, App settings, Pricing, Our apps and Partner apps.

Home

Your starting point. It shows whether the app is live on your store and guides you through setup with the Get started and Activate app cards.

Preview app on themes

This screen is not in the menu. Click Preview app on the Activate app card on Home to open it. It lists your themes and shows whether the app embed is on in each one.

Manage product media

The main page. It lists your products, and it is where you assign each variant's images and turn the app on for a product.

Setup videos

Short videos that show how to organize a product's variant images and how to choose the featured image shown on collection pages.

App settings

Settings that apply across your whole store, such as whether new products start with the app on, which images show when a page first loads, and the featured image on collection pages.

Pricing

Shows your current plan, trial days left and next billing date. Your price follows your Shopify plan, and every plan includes every feature. Deactivate the app pauses the app and its billing.
