Build custom Shopify apps that add unique features to your store. TNS provides full-cycle Shopify app development in the USA
The Shopify App Store is often the first stop when you need new functionality. But off-the-shelf apps come with limits. They might overlap in features, add unnecessary bloat, or charge steep monthly fees that pile up. Custom app development makes sense if:
Not sure what’s possible? Here are a few app ideas that consistently help U.S. eCommerce brands grow:
Every eCommerce store owner wants more conversions, but most overlook the role apps play in that process. Prebuilt apps may add functionality, but they often create friction, slow down your store, or leave gaps in the customer journey. That’s where custom Shopify apps make a real difference. A tailored app allows you to remove unnecessary steps from checkout, personalize offers for different customer segments, and integrate upsells or cross-sells directly into the shopping flow without feeling pushy. For example, a U.S.-based skincare brand might use a custom app to recommend complementary products based on what a customer has just added to their cart. That small adjustment can significantly increase average order value.
Custom apps also reduce cart abandonment by simplifying the payment process and ensuring the design stays consistent with your store. Add in loyalty programs or membership perks, and suddenly you’re not just converting customers once — you’re keeping them coming back. In short, a well-designed app doesn’t just add functionality; it actively drives revenue.
Building a custom app is about more than writing code — it’s about understanding your business and your customers. At That Nerd Studio (TNS), we focus on the bigger picture. We work with U.S. brands to uncover where off-the-shelf apps fall short, then design and develop custom solutions that actually solve those pain points. Our approach is hands-on. We start with your business requirements, map out the customer journey, and design apps that feel like a natural extension of your Shopify store. From integrations with CRMs and ERPs to features like product configurators, loyalty programs, or advanced analytics dashboards, every app is built with performance and scalability in mind.
But what really sets us apart is our focus on conversions. We don’t just deliver apps that “work” — we build apps that help you sell more. And once your app is live, we stick with you, offering ongoing support and optimization to ensure your store keeps up with U.S. market demands. If you want more than cookie-cutter solutions, and you’re ready for an app that gives your store a competitive edge, TNS is the partner you can trust.
Buying a prebuilt app is fine when it does the job. But if you’re stacking multiple tools, paying endless subscription fees, or struggling with limitations, it’s time to go custom.
