Customized product previews without custom code?

Topic summary

A store owner is seeking a solution to display live text previews on product images when customers enter personalized text (e.g., names) on product pages. They want an app-based solution that doesn’t require custom coding.

Initial Response:

  • One commenter suggested custom code might be necessary if no suitable app exists.

App Solutions Identified:
Two app developers offered no-code solutions:

  • Seal Apps: Recently launched an app specifically for live text previews on products. Features include custom font support and the ability to charge additional fees for personalization.

  • Easify Product Options: Provides text field and file upload capabilities with live preview functionality. The app includes visual demonstrations showing both the customer-facing product page and backend configuration settings. Setup is done entirely within the app interface without coding.

Both solutions appear to directly address the original requirement for customizable product previews without custom development work.

I’m wondering if there is a way to have an option for customizable text on a product that actually previews on the product image - ie, I type my name into a text box on the product page, and it shows up as I typed it, overlaid on the product image. Are there any “out of the box” apps that do this, or would it be necessary to add custom code to a theme to get this function? I’ve looked around on the app store, but I haven’t found anything so far that doesn’t require additional custom coding. Thanks for any help/ideas!

Hi @lksmith

If you can not find any app can help you to do this, I think you need to add some custom code for that

Hey @lksmith , at Seal we just launched an app that do just what you described - It allows customers to preview personalized texts on products before buying. No coding needed and simple to use. You can also use your custom fonts and charge additional price.

You can try it free here :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi @lksmith ,

The Easify Product Options app allows you to add a text field/ file upload section on your product page for customers to enter custom text/ upload a photo, with a preview of the entered text/ uploaded image displayed directly on the product image. You can easily configure this within the app, with no coding required. Below is a demo :grin: :
