Hi @HarryLam95

I’ve read through your question and totally get what you’re looking for—a Shopify app that goes beyond generic recommendations and actually personalizes suggestions based on each customer’s behavior. Since your current app only shows bestsellers and isn’t delivering results, switching to a more advanced recommendation tool is a smart move.

Best Shopify Apps for Personalized Product Recommendations

Here are some solid options that use AI-driven algorithms to analyze browsing and purchase history for better recommendation accuracy:

  1. LimeSpot Personalizer – Uses AI to track user behavior and suggest highly relevant products. It also supports A/B testing for recommendations, helping you find what works best. It integrates well with most Shopify themes.

  2. Rebuy Smart Personalization – Great for increasing AOV (average order value) with AI-powered recommendations. It supports dynamic upselling and cross-selling, and it works well for both product pages and cart pages.

  3. Wiser - Personalized Recommendations – Offers recommendation types like recently viewed, “frequently bought together,” and AI-based suggestions. It provides in-depth analytics, so you can track the performance of different recommendation types.

  4. Glood.ai – Uses machine learning to personalize recommendations in real time based on user behavior. Also supports A/B testing and has a drag-and-drop widget for easy customization.

What I’d Recommend

If A/B testing is a priority, LimeSpot and Glood.ai are the best choices. If you want strong AI-based suggestions, Rebuy or Wiser would be great.

How to Improve Click-Through Rate (CTR)

Since your current recommendation CTR is only 2.5%, here are a few tweaks that could help:

  • Use multiple recommendation types: Instead of just “You May Also Like,” test “Frequently Bought Together” or “Inspired by Your Browsing” sections.
  • Try in-cart recommendations: Apps like Rebuy let you show suggestions in the cart, which often convert better.
  • Use images, not just text: Ensure the recommended products display high-quality images that attract clicks.
  • Test placement: Move recommendation widgets to different spots (below product descriptions, sidebar, or cart page) to see what performs best.

Try out a free trial from one of these apps, monitor performance, and tweak based on results.
