On the first Shopify connection, virtual.fit imports products, variants, prices, inventory, option values, swatches, and media. It begins preparing eligible apparel up to your plan limit while you configure the storefront. Later Shopify updates keep the catalog in sync. Products with many variants do not require separate preparation for every size when they share the same garment media.

​
Preparation status

Product status tells you what is ready for shoppers.
Recommendation readiness is separate from try-on readiness. A product can support virtual try-on even when recommendations are unavailable.

​
Review the first product

1

Open the product catalog

In virtual.fit, open Setup and search for a representative garment.
2

Confirm it is Active

Activate the product if needed. Use Activate All or Deactivate All only after testing a smaller group.
3

Open Details

After preparation finishes, open Details and review the available garment views.
4

Curate the media

Turn off duplicated, obstructed, unrelated, or inaccurate images. Correct the image angle when needed.
5

Test the product page

Open the product’s storefront URL and complete a try-on before activating more products.

​
Product images

virtual.fit automatically syncs all available Shopify product and variant images, analyzes them, and chooses the strongest views. You do not need to select or upload a separate copy of each Shopify image. The strongest fit references have these qualities: A star identifies the strongest image for an angle. Use quality indicators as guidance and inspect the image itself before deciding. Front, back, and side views give virtual.fit the strongest fit reference. Flat-lay and isolated ghost images are still accepted, but model or mannequin images generally produce more accurate results. If you have useful fit-reference images that you do not want to list in the public Shopify product gallery, open the product’s Details in virtual.fit and upload them there. For example, you can add full-product front, back, or side views on a model or mannequin without changing the product page gallery.

​
Product eligibility

A product page shows virtual.fit only when:
  • The Shopify product is present in virtual.fit.
  • The product is Active.
  • Preparation found at least one usable garment image.
  • The app embed is active in the current theme.
Virtual try-on is intended for supported apparel such as tops, bottoms, dresses, and similar garments. Non-apparel and unsupported products remain hidden.

​
Make image corrections

Use Details to:
  • Turn individual images on or off.
  • Correct an image’s angle.
  • Upload a replacement garment image.
  • Remove a manually uploaded image.
  • Refresh preparation after Shopify media changes.
  • Add a short product-specific visual instruction when necessary.
Keep instructions concrete and visible, for example: Preserve the silver buttons and cropped hem. Do not use instructions to contradict the catalog image.

​
After catalog changes

After changing product media, title, handle, variants, price, or availability in Shopify:
  1. Refresh the product in virtual.fit.
  2. Prepare it again when the media changed.
  3. Confirm the garment image set.
  4. Re-test the live product page.
Changing a Shopify handle also changes the product URL. Re-test storefront behavior and update campaign or QA links.

​
Recommendations and stock

virtual.fit shows at most one recommendation for the same product. It selects the best visual match, then uses fresh Shopify inventory to choose an in-stock variant when possible. If the best exact variant is sold out, virtual.fit may select another in-stock size from the same visual choice. It does not substitute a different color or pattern unless that visual choice is the better recommendation.

​
Scale up safely

Start with a representative group across garment categories, image styles, and product templates. Once they pass the launch checklist, activate more products up to your plan limit.
