Evlop Review 2026: Pricing, Features, Pros and Cons

Evlop is worth it for Shopify merchants who want a highly rated, flexible app builder with custom code blocks, many integrations and hands-on launch support, and who can budget $249 to $499 a month for the plans that unlock those extras. If you mainly need a published native app with unlimited push notifications at the lowest steady cost, the $99 Starter plan works, but compare it with other $99 builders before you commit. This Evlop review covers pricing, features, merchant feedback and how Evlop stacks up against SimiCart, based on its Shopify App Store listing checked October 5, 2026.

Key takeaways

• Pricing: a free 14-day trial, then Starter $99/month, Professional $249/month and Business $499/month, with about 17% off on annual billing (Shopify App Store, October 2026).
• Rating: 4.9 out of 5 from 54 reviews, with the Built for Shopify badge. 51 reviews are 5-star and 3 are 1-star.
• Biggest strength: flexibility. Custom Blocks (HTML, CSS, JS, Liquid) and 33 listed integrations let you go beyond standard templates.
• Main trade-off: the jump from $99 to $249. Scheduled push, back-in-stock alerts, Shopify Markets and custom blocks sit on Professional; Klaviyo and automated push sit on Business.
• No revenue share: Evlop says it charges no commission or success fee on any plan.
• Choose by need: Evlop fits brands that want customization depth and many integrations; SimiCart fits stores that want a free build-and-preview phase and lower prices on the mid and top tiers.

What is Evlop?

Evlop is a no-code mobile app builder that turns a Shopify store into native iOS and Android apps. It launched on the Shopify App Store on February 25, 2022, is developed by Evlop (based in Kathmandu, Nepal) and holds the Built for Shopify badge, which Shopify gives to apps that meet its criteria for performance, design and integration.

The listing describes Evlop as a way to “turn your online store into a branded iOS and Android app built for retention and repeat sales.” You design the app with drag-and-drop blocks, refine key screens or add custom components, and keep products, inventory, customers and checkout synced with Shopify. Evlop’s team guides your submission to the App Store and Google Play.

Evlop also offers a “Native / Optimized webview app option” on Starter, which matters if part of your store relies on theme features that a fully native screen cannot reproduce. For broader context on how builders like this work, see our guide on turning a Shopify store into a mobile app.

How much does Evlop cost in 2026?

Evlop costs $99 to $499 a month on the Shopify App Store, after a free 14-day trial. Every paid plan also offers annual billing at roughly 17% off.

A few pricing details are easy to miss:

• The free tier is a trial, not a free plan. The listing header says “Free plan available,” but the free card is labeled “Free Trial” and reads “Try Evlop free for 14 days.” Plan on paying $99 or more once you go live.
• More options on Evlop’s own site. The Evlop pricing page adds an Enterprise plan starting at $999/month, a Done For You setup for $1,499 one-time and a Fully Managed service at $4,995/month. These are not on the App Store listing.
• Unlimited push on every plan. Evlop’s website says all plans include unlimited push notifications and zero transaction fees. Scheduled push starts on Professional, while automated and segmented push are listed on Business.
• Store accounts are extra. Publishing under your own name costs $99 per year for the Apple Developer Program and a one-time $25 for a Google Play developer account, whichever builder you use.

What are Evlop’s key features?

Evlop’s main features are flexible design blocks, custom code blocks, push automation, a broad integration list and guided app store launches. Here is what each covers, based on the listing and Evlop’s website.

Drag-and-drop design and custom blocks

You build pages with drag-and-drop blocks and can customize the home, product, collection, search, blog, account, cart and wishlist pages. Starter includes unlimited design elements and custom landing pages. The App Store listing places Custom Blocks (HTML, CSS, JS, Liquid) on Professional, while Evlop’s own comparison table shows a basic HTML/CSS/JS block on every plan and counts React Native custom blocks per plan (1 on Starter, 5 on Professional, 25 on Business). This is Evlop’s clearest technical advantage: if you have a developer, you can build app sections that no template offers.

Push notifications and automation

Evlop sends push notifications with rich media and deep links, plus abandoned cart notifications from Starter. Professional adds a scheduler and back-in-stock alerts. Business adds automated and segmented push, and Evlop’s site lists automation flows with 1, 5 or 25 triggers depending on the plan.

Integrations

The listing says Evlop works with Judge.me, Yotpo, Ali Reviews, Kiwi Size Chart, BON Loyalty, Smile, Klaviyo, Meta ads, Mixpanel, Braze, Skio, Tidio, Shopify Inbox, Iterable and Globo, and the Evlop integrations page counts 33 in total. Check the plan, though: Klaviyo integration appears on the Business plan card ($499/month), and custom integrations are also a Business feature.

Global selling

Multi-language and multi-currency support start on Starter, and the listing mentions right-to-left (RTL) layouts, which matters for Arabic and Hebrew storefronts. Shopify Markets and multi-store support start on Professional.

Launch support

Evlop says its team guides your App Store and Google Play submission, and its site lists onboarding, call support and quick launch assistance on every plan. Merchant reviews back this up, as covered below.

What are the pros of Evlop?

Evlop’s strongest points are its rating, its support team and how far you can customize the app. Here are the pros we found, each tied to the listing or to merchant reviews:

• Very high rating: 4.9 out of 5 from 54 reviews, with 94% of ratings at 5 stars.
• Hands-on support: the most repeated theme in reviews. Merchants mention step-by-step setup help, a dedicated representative and even a Zoom call to configure Google Play.
• Custom code when you need it: HTML, CSS, JS and Liquid blocks, plus React Native blocks, give developers room to build unique sections.
• Many integrations: 33 integrations across reviews, loyalty, chat, analytics, attribution and subscriptions.
• No revenue share: flat monthly pricing with no commission or success fee, according to Evlop.
• Built for Shopify: the badge signals that the app meets Shopify’s quality standards.

What are the limitations of Evlop?

Evlop’s main limitations are the price jump between plans and the fact that several integrations and automations sit on the higher tiers. These points come from the listing and from Evlop’s own 1-star reviews; none of them make Evlop a poor choice, but they affect your real budget.

• Big step from Starter to Professional: going from $99 to $249 is a $150 monthly increase, and that is the plan where scheduled push, back-in-stock alerts, Shopify Markets and Custom Blocks appear.
• Key marketing integrations on Business: Klaviyo integration, automated push and segmented push are listed on the $499 plan. If your retention strategy depends on Klaviyo flows, budget for Business.
• Integration costs surprised some merchants: one 1-star review (November 6, 2024) says “Every Integration require money.” Another (edited March 9, 2024) says the merchant was charged for an integration that was free elsewhere.
• Google Play testing rules: a merchant complained that Evlop did not warn them about Google’s tester requirement. This is a Google policy, not an Evlop rule: personal developer accounts created after November 13, 2023 must now run a closed test with at least 12 testers for 14 days before going live. Ask any builder how they handle this before you start.
• The free tier ends: the 14-day trial lets you build and preview, but there is no long-term free plan for testing ideas over several weeks.

What do Shopify merchants say in Evlop reviews?

Merchants mostly praise Evlop’s support and ease of setup, while the few negative reviews focus on integration costs and publishing hurdles. We read the reviews on the Evlop reviews page on October 5, 2026. Of 54 reviews, 51 are 5-star, none are 2 to 4 stars and 3 are 1-star.

Recurring positive themes:

• Support quality: a UK wholesale merchant wrote on July 3, 2026 that the app was “Easy to set up and customize” and the “Support team is responsive and very helpful.” Several reviews from 2025 and 2026 describe a dedicated contact who guided setup.
• Speed to launch: merchants describe getting the app approved on both stores with Evlop’s help, including after “a few hiccups” with approval (September 2024).
• Value for small stores: one long-time user (February 2025) called it the “best one around for low cost mobile app.”

Recurring negative themes:

• Paid integrations (November 2024 and March 2024).
• Google Play publishing friction, linked to Google’s testing requirement (March 2024).
• Empty dashboard on install: one October 2023 review said none of the tabs loaded; Evlop replied and asked for screenshots.

Two things stand out. First, all three 1-star reviews are from 2023 and 2024, and the recent feedback in 2025 and 2026 is positive. Second, Evlop replied publicly to two of the three complaints, which is a good sign of an active team.

Evlop vs SimiCart: how do they compare?

Evlop and SimiCart both start publishing at $99 a month, but SimiCart costs less on the mid and top tiers, while Evlop offers more custom code options and a higher rating. Here is a side-by-side view based on both Shopify App Store listings.

The price gap grows as you move up. A store that needs more than the entry plan pays $249 a month on Evlop Professional against $149 on SimiCart Pro, a difference of $1,200 a year. At the top listed tier, Evlop Business is $499 and SimiCart Premium is $249, which includes app design support and a dedicated success manager. In exchange, Evlop gives you custom code blocks, more listed integrations and a stronger review record.

Should you choose Evlop or SimiCart?

Choose based on whether you need custom code and specific integrations, or a lower monthly cost with a longer free build phase. Both are Built for Shopify, both publish native iOS and Android apps from $99 a month, and neither takes a cut of your sales.

Choose Evlop if

• You have a developer and want Custom Blocks in HTML, CSS, JS or Liquid to build sections no template offers.
• Your retention plan depends on Klaviyo, automated push and segmented push, and the $499 Business plan fits your budget.
• You need one of Evlop’s 33 listed integrations, such as Okendo, Loox, Braze, Skio, AppsFlyer or Branch.
• You sell in RTL languages or across several Shopify Markets.
• You want the option to hand the whole project over through Evlop’s Done For You or Fully Managed services.

Choose SimiCart if

• You want to build and preview your app on a real device for free, for as long as you need, before paying to publish.
• You need features beyond the entry plan but want to stay near $149 a month (SimiCart Pro) instead of $249.
• You want app-exclusive discounts, a smart app banner and loyalty program integration at the $149 tier.
• You want app design support and a dedicated success manager for $249 a month (SimiCart Premium).
• You prefer unlimited push notifications from the first paid plan, with no success fee on any plan.

How to choose a Shopify app builder

The safest way to choose is to test both builders with your own catalog before your trial ends. Use this short checklist:

• List the integrations you cannot live without (reviews, loyalty, email, subscriptions) and confirm which plan includes each one.
• Price the plan you will actually need in six months, not the entry plan.
• Ask how publishing works: whose developer accounts the app uses, how Google’s 12-tester rule is handled and how long review usually takes.
• Preview on a real phone and check speed, product pages and checkout.
• Read the newest reviews, including the 1-star ones and the developer’s replies.

If SimiCart fits your list, you can start on the free plan with the SimiCart Shopify mobile app builder and compare plans on our pricing page. For more builder reviews, see our Hulk Mobile App Builder review and OneMobile review.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Evlop free?

No, not for a live app. Evlop offers a free 14-day trial to build and preview your app, and paid plans start at $99 a month for Starter. The listing header says “Free plan available,” but the free card is a trial.

How much does Evlop cost per month?

Evlop costs $99 a month on Starter, $249 on Professional and $499 on Business, as listed on the Shopify App Store in October 2026. Annual billing saves about 17%. Evlop’s website also lists Enterprise from $999 a month.

Does Evlop charge a success fee or commission?

No. Evlop’s pricing page says it charges no commission and no success fee, so your monthly cost does not rise with app revenue. You still pay Apple’s $99 yearly fee and Google’s one-time $25 fee if you publish under your own accounts.

Does Evlop integrate with Klaviyo and Judge.me?

Yes. Both appear in Evlop’s “Works with” list on the Shopify App Store. Note that Klaviyo integration is listed on the Business plan at $499 a month, so check the plan before you rely on it.

Is Evlop a good app builder for small Shopify stores?

It can be. The $99 Starter plan covers a native app, unlimited design elements, multi-language and abandoned cart notifications, and reviews praise the support. Small stores should check whether features they need, like back-in-stock alerts or Klaviyo, sit on the $249 or $499 plans.

What is the difference between Evlop and SimiCart?

Both publish native iOS and Android apps from $99 a month with no success fee and both are Built for Shopify. Evlop offers custom code blocks and more integrations, while SimiCart has a free build-and-preview plan and lower mid and top tiers ($149 and $249 versus $249 and $499).

How long does it take to launch an app with Evlop?

Evlop does not state a standard timeline on its listing. Its website promotes a Done For You service that is “Launch-Ready in 7 Days” for a ,499 one-time fee. App store review and Google’s 14-day closed test for new personal accounts can add time, so plan for both.
