App overview
Dashboard, photos, galleries, Instagram Feed, plans and settings at a glance
This guide gives you an overview of the Customer Photo Uploader app and its main sections. If you haven't set up the app yet, start with the installation instructions to add photo uploads to your Shopify store and start collecting user-generated content (UGC).
Dashboard
Your command center for UGC. The Dashboard gives you an at-a-glance view of your recent submissions and the statuses of uploaded photos, and lets you edit them right there. The Help block lets you choose how to get assistance — through the Help Center or by contacting the Support team directly.
Photos
Your UGC library. The Photos page stores every image submitted by your customers. Here you can moderate new submissions with one-click approval, assign photos to galleries, link products to photos, and manage your entire UGC collection before it appears on your store.
Product Galleries
Product Galleries control how customer photos are displayed on individual product pages. You can manage the content of each gallery, add a photo from one gallery to several others, approve or reject photos, remove them from a gallery, or delete them completely.
Custom Galleries
Custom Galleries are standalone photo galleries for any page of your store, such as the homepage or a landing page. Select images from your photo library to build curated collections, then add each gallery wherever you need it in your Shopify theme.
Instagram Feed
Your Instagram content on your store. The Instagram Feed section (currently in beta) lets you connect Instagram or Meta for Business accounts, create feeds, curate and pin posts, tag products to make posts shoppable, and display everything in a customizable widget on your storefront.
Plans
The Plans page shows your current plan and the available subscription options. Compare features across all plans and choose the best fit for your store.
Settings
The Settings page brings together all app configuration options. Edit and translate the customer-facing texts of the upload widget, manage email notifications, control content moderation (automatic photo approval, the Shoppable tab, and the default photo sort order), set up integrations, and enable Legacy theme mode for older themes.
