we have same issue now too…doesn’t seem like there’s a way to do it with shopify functions @Imogen_1
Topic summary
Shopify’s checkout currently displays only the 5 most recently used saved addresses, even when customers have many more stored in the backend. This limitation causes significant issues for businesses with customers who regularly ship to multiple locations (10-25+ addresses).
Core Problem:
- Customers cannot see all their saved addresses in the checkout dropdown
- This forces manual re-entry of existing addresses, creating duplicates
- Particularly affects B2B customers, gift buyers, and organizations with multiple delivery locations
Shopify’s Position:
- The 5-address limit was implemented in 2019 to improve checkout load times and user experience
- No current workaround or timeline for changes
- Staff member Imogen has escalated feedback to the Product/Development team multiple times
Community Suggestions:
- Increase the cap to 10-25 addresses
- Add a “show more” toggle button
- Implement a search/filter function to dynamically find addresses
Status: Unresolved and ongoing. Multiple merchants have reported this issue over nearly a year with no solution announced. The checkout.liquid customization workaround is being phased out with new checkout UI extensions, leaving no alternative approach.
