Short answer

The number of apps Shopify states are available in its App Store, with the qualifier Shopify prints: annual information forms for fiscal 2016 to 2023, Forms 10-K for fiscal 2024 and 2025, and the App Store categories page captured October 18, 2026. Retrieved October 18, 2026.

Shopify says its App Store held more than 21,000 apps at the end of 2025, up from about 1,400 in its fiscal 2016 filing

Methodology

Caveats: Shopify App Store app count as Shopify states it, fiscal 2016 to 2025 and October 2026

  • Every figure is a count Shopify states. Read it with its qualifier: approximately, more than or over. The last two are lower bounds, not exact counts.
  • The annual information forms for FY2022 and FY2023 and the Forms 10-K state December 31 as the as-of date. The earlier annual information forms give none, and the App Store page states no as-of date.
  • The App Store page figure (over 16,000, captured October 18, 2026) and the Form 10-K figure (more than 21,000 as of December 31, 2025) are both Shopify statements. Shopify does not say why they differ, and Deploi treats neither as out of date.
  • A count of URLs in the App Store's apps sitemap is not an app count, because the sitemap includes URLs that are not live listings. It is not published as a value.
  • Steps between figures on the story page are differences between stated figures, computed by Deploi, and are not exact growth in apps.
