Ampify
Shopify PWA with an upgrade path to store-published apps
Ampify is a Shopify app from Ampify Pte. Ltd., based in Singapore. Its Shopify App Store listing launched on October 5, 2018 and carries the Built for Shopify badge. Ampify also sells AI visibility and traffic-blocking apps for Shopify.
The app turns the existing storefront into an installable progressive web app (PWA) with install prompts and web push. Because the app uses the store's own site, the vendor states that existing apps, flows and integrations keep working. Design changes are made in the Shopify theme editor.
The three lower plans, from $9.99 to $99.99 per month, cover the PWA and web push. Apps published to the App Store and Google Play are on the $199.99 Elite plan.

How apps are built
The merchant installs the app, adds a logo and app name, configures the install prompt, enables web push and activates the app embed in the theme. Customers then install the store to their home screen as a PWA. The Premium plan adds native-style elements such as a bottom navigation bar, splash screens and animations, edited from the Shopify theme editor.
The Elite plan ($199.99 per month) adds published iOS and Android apps, with a dedicated designer and success manager and app submission content prepared by the vendor. On the lower plans the merchant sets everything up themselves.
How it connects to your store
The app wraps the existing Shopify storefront rather than rebuilding it, so the catalog, checkout and theme apps carry over. The Shopify listing names Checkout, Customer Accounts, Klaviyo, Locksmith and review apps under "Works with". The Elite plan lists unlimited integrations and custom workflows, which is a vendor claim.
Features and engagement
Web push covers abandoned cart recovery, order updates, promotions, flash sales and welcome messages, with segments and conversion tracking. Essentials is capped at 5,000 push impressions, and Pro removes the cap. The listing states campaigns can be created through Shopify Sidekick.
What it costs and who it's for
The Shopify listing shows Essentials at $9.99, Pro at $49.99, Premium at $99.99 and Elite at $199.99 per month, each with a 14-day free trial and billed through Shopify. The vendor's own pricing page shows the entry plan at $19.99, and the Shopify price is used here.
It fits Shopify stores that want web push and an installable app quickly, and that are fine with a PWA until they move to Elite for store-published apps.

Bottom Line
Best for: Shopify stores that want an installable PWA with web push at a low price, with the option to publish store apps later on the Elite plan, without rebuilding the storefront.
Ampify gives a Shopify store an installable PWA with web push, and publishes iOS and Android store apps on its Elite plan at $199.99 per month. A $9.99 Essentials plan exists, but it covers the web app (PWA) only. Every tier wraps the existing storefront rather than building native screens. It has 40 Shopify reviews and the Built for Shopify badge.
