Problem and result
Shopify Recently Viewed Products: A Short Memory That Brings Shoppers Back to a Decision
Shoppers compare. They open six products, forget which was which and then lose the one they liked. A Recently viewed row keeps their shortlist in front of them, which shortens the way back to a decision and saves them from hunting through their browser history.
Shoppers lose track of what they viewed
After browsing several products, shoppers cannot easily find the one they liked. They go back through menus, use the browser history or leave, and the comparison you wanted never completes.
A shortlist that builds itself
As shoppers browse, a row below the product shows the last items they opened. It works without a login, refreshes prices and stock and leaves out anything unavailable.
What is included
What Your Recently Viewed Row Includes
When you ask for Shopify recently viewed products built properly, you get a light script, a row styled to your theme and a clear handover on how the history is stored.
Implementation checklist
- Recently viewed section added below the buy box on your product template
- The last products opened remembered in the visitor's own browser, with no login needed
- The current product left out of the row
- Fresh price, image and stock fetched for each card
- Sold-out and unpublished products dropped from the row
- Number of products and heading you choose, as a grid or a slider
- Row loaded after the main content so the page stays fast
- Handover note covering how the history is stored and a line for your privacy information
The history is kept in the visitor's own browser storage and is not sent to us or to any third party. Privacy information and consent rules differ by country, and what you tell shoppers about storage remains your responsibility.
See how it works
From Forgotten Browsing to a Shortlist That Builds Itself
Follow one visit. The shopper opens several products, then scrolls to find the last ones they looked at waiting below, with current prices and stock.

How We Handle Your Recently Viewed Row, Step by Step
Six clear steps take your recently viewed row from order to handover, with testing before anything touches your live theme and a clear view of what happens next.
- 01
Purchase
Configure the recently viewed row to your needs, confirm the fixed price and complete the secure checkout to start the job.
- 02
Access
Invite us as a collaborator and complete the quick brief for the recently viewed row, which keeps your account and passwords entirely under your control.
- 03

We make the recently viewed row in a duplicate of your theme, so your live store keeps selling while we work.
- 04
QA
We test the recently viewed row on phones, tablets and desktops against the acceptance criteria before you see anything.
- 05
Handover
On your go-ahead the recently viewed row is published, and you get a short document explaining where everything lives.

Support
If something about the recently viewed row needs a second look after launch, ask and we respond, and bigger changes get their own fixed quote.

What we need to get started
What We Need to Get Add Recently Viewed Products Started
Choose how you want to give access, then send the few details that matter for the recently viewed row, and we never touch your live theme until you have approved the result.
Collaborator access
Send your store URL and approve our Shopify collaborator request for the recently viewed row, and you stay the owner, no password is shared and you can remove our access once the work is live.
No store yet? We build it first
No store yet means we build the recently viewed row in our Partner account and you take over the finished store, picking your plan at that point.
Prefer to share a login?
Staff login details also work for the recently viewed row, while collaborator access remains the tidier choice because you can end it in one click.
Row details
Tell us how many products to show, the heading wording and whether it should also appear on the cart or home page.
Privacy wording
Tell us if you want a short line for your privacy information about browser storage.
One decision maker
One person who signs off the recently viewed row, which keeps feedback tidy and inside the two revision rounds.
If you are not certain which access option suits the recently viewed row, the short form after checkout is the place to say so and we will point you to the easiest.
