Sync Your Shopify Store in Real Time, No More Manual Updates

Let’s start with a little scenario: It’s late at night, you're kicking back with a cold drink, and suddenly, you realize that dozens of orders have come in for a “sold-out” item, you forgot to update your Shopify store. You're stuck fielding messages and refunds. Sound familiar? I’ve been there.
That’s why real-time sync by the Mobile App Builder by WebPlanex isn’t just an extra, it’s a lifesaver. It means your store and app are always in sync—prices, inventory, banners, everything line up across all platforms, without you lifting a finger.
Why Real-Time Sync Makes a Huge Difference
Let’s talk numbers.
- Conversion drops fast: Every second your site lags, you could lose 7% of conversions. On mobile, a second's delay can cost you up to 20%.
- Increased Bounce rates : If your site takes over 3 seconds on mobile, 53% of visitors leave.
- Speed drives revenue: Cutting your load time from 2 to 1 second can increase your revenue.
Imagine saving 7% of sales every single time you update inventory. That’s real money.
