Shopify's own accessibility guidance is aimed at the theme rather than at a widget, and it is specific: text smaller than 24 pixels regular or 18.5 pixels bold needs a contrast ratio of 4.5:1 against its background, while larger text, icons and input borders need 3:1. The tooling Shopify built to go with it is a build-time check that measures a theme against a benchmark, not something that runs while a shopper is on the page.

These apps come at it from the other end. They load a toolbar on the storefront that lets a visitor raise contrast, resize text, enlarge the cursor, turn on a reading line or have the page read aloud, and they usually bundle an accessibility statement and generated alt text. That is a real service to some visitors, and it is a different thing from the markup underneath being correct. It is also worth knowing where the overlay stops: it loads through your theme, and checkout no longer runs on theme code, so the one page where somebody has to type an address and a card number is outside its reach.

What to look for in a Access app

Whether it audits or only overlays: A toolbar changes what a visitor can adjust for themselves. Heading order, focus states, form labels and the contrast Shopify documents are properties of your theme code, and no widget rewrites them. The listings worth a second look are the ones that scan and report as well, because that output is what a developer can act on.
What happens at checkout: Ask any vendor promising end-to-end coverage which pages their script actually loads on. Shopify closed theme-level customization of the information, shipping and payment steps, and the old script hooks on the thank-you and order-status pages are being retired, so anything reaching into checkout has to be built as a checkout extension rather than an embedded widget.
Which rules you are actually subject to: Listings here name ADA, WCAG, AODA and the European Accessibility Act more or less interchangeably, and they are not the same obligations. Which ones apply depends on where your customers are, not on which acronyms a widget supports, and no app makes that determination for you.
The statement it generates for you: An accessibility statement is a public claim about your store, published under your name. A generated one is a useful starting draft and a bad thing to leave unread, particularly the parts describing what you have tested and who to contact.

What does the Built for Shopify badge mean?

Built for Shopify
Built for Shopify is the highest level of recognition Shopify awards an app. To earn the badge, an app must meet Shopify's standards for safety, performance, ease of use, and proven usefulness: it cannot slow down the admin, storefront, or checkout, must integrate seamlessly into the Shopify admin, and must demonstrate quality through installs, reviews, and ratings over time. When comparing similar apps, preferring ones with the badge is a safe default. Learn more about the Built for Shopify badge →
