Milkyway X AI edges out Shop on rating (5.0★ vs 4.8★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number. Pricing entry tiers: Milkyway X AI at Free trial available, Shop at Free. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (apps, orders, integrations) varies. Shop has the larger user base (7,371 reviews vs 2), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Milkyway X AI's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat. Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to Milkyway X AI; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Shop's 7,371-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Milkyway X AI's broader-but-shallower coverage. This verdict is generated from the live marketplace data on this page — rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position all refresh from the canonical Shopify App Store listing every 24 hours. AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.

Milkyway X AI has the higher average rating (5.0★ from 2 reviews) compared to Shop (4.8★ from 7,371 reviews). Both are tracked daily by AppRanks, so the figures here update each refresh cycle.
It depends on what you're optimizing for. Milkyway X AI fits better if you prioritize rating consistency; Shop is the call if you need the larger user base. Read both apps' detail pages on AppRanks for the full feature breakdown, install counts, and recent listing changes.
Both apps are one-click installs from the Shopify App Store marketplace. Shop has more onboarding documentation maturity (7,371 reviews vs 2), which usually translates to better-tested setup wizards and quicker time-to-value. AppRanks doesn't measure setup time directly — read the recent reviews on each app's detail page for merchant-reported install experience.
Milkyway X AI typically suits early-stage and growth-mode stores based on its review-base composition (2 reviews). Shop aligns more with established stores with steady traffic (7,371 reviews). Larger review bases generally mean the app has been load-tested at scale — relevant if you're processing high order volume or handling enterprise compliance requirements.
Migration support varies by app and category. Milkyway X AI and Shop both publish their export options on their marketplace listing pages (or in their support docs); some apps offer one-click import from competitors, others require CSV. The fastest check: search "import from Milkyway X AI" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
for my first start the experience is fantastic.
I stopped my campaigns on June 15th, but I'm still getting charged. Your support told me that even when I turn a campaign off, I keep getting charged for the next 7 days or so, even though it's not running anymore. How does that work? If the ads aren't running, why am I still paying? With Meta or TikTok, when I turn my
