Why Theme Vitals?

Example web vitals metrics for a theme
  • Real-world Core Web Vitals data — not just lab tests or marketing fluff.
  • Mobile and desktop data so you can see how themes perform on different devices.
  • Monthly updates mean the data reflects the most recent Shopify store performance trends.
  • Actionable insights for merchants and theme developers — spot performance issues or opportunities at a glance.

ThemeVitals gives me the real, actionable data I need to guide Shopify merchants. Speed is always a top priority when building stores, and ThemeVitals adds the crucial context behind theme performance. It gives my clients peace of mind that they’re choosing the right theme.

How to Use Theme Vitals

For Shopify Merchants

Compare your theme's data here to your storefront's performance. If your performance is worse, you may have apps and/or customizations impacting it.

If you're shopping for a new theme, you can use this data along with the features of each theme to make a better decision about the tradeoffs.

For Theme Developers

Use ThemeVitals to identify performance bottlenecks in real-world usage. Compare mobile and desktop Core Web Vitals. Which metric does your theme struggle with the most?

Debug performance further using tools like browser dev tools and WebPageTest on live websites. Then, validate whether theme changes are improving user experience over time.
