How can I keep items in my cart after logging in on a different browser?

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

Main issue: Cart contents added while logged in on one browser don’t appear after logging in on another browser/device.

  • Current behavior: This is expected; Shopify carts are device/session-specific.
  • Workarounds (apps): Use third‑party apps that sync carts across devices, e.g., Cart Saver & Share (includes a free plan) and Persistent Cart. Merchants are advised to review app feedback before installing.
  • Product feedback: Shopify staff have submitted a feature request to theme developers, noting potential conversion benefits.
  • Follow‑up update: A later question asked if this is now built‑in. Shopify confirmed it is still not a native feature; the recommended apps remain the solution.

Status: No built‑in cart persistence across devices at this time; functionality achievable via apps. Discussion answered, with the feature request pending future consideration.

Hi, @wish_oza .

Thanks for posting! I hope you’re having a great day so far. This is expected behavior for a user’s cart to disappear when logging into another device. That being said, there is an app that provides this functionality. The best part is it has a free plan! Check out Cart Saver & Share here.

If that does not look right for you, there are other similar apps available such as Persistent Cart. When selecting an app, make sure to check the reviews so you can familiarize yourself with other merchants’ perspectives.

In the meantime, I’ve submitted this feedback to our theme developers as a feature request. I can definitely see how impactful this can be for conversions!

Lastly, can you provide your store domain? I would love to take a peek! Also, make sure to check out Shopify Learn, where we provide free courses and tutorials to help you through every aspect of ecommerce!

This is not a feature currently offered by Shopify, though the recommended apps do still apply!

Warm regards,
