Watch the session

Every movement, replayed like a video

See exactly how a real shopper navigates your store — cursor paths on desktop, thumb gestures on mobile, scrolling, clicks, and page-to-page flow. A 30-second replay settles more design debates than a week of opinions.

  • Mouse and touch movement reconstructed faithfully
  • Cart and checkout steps highlighted in the timeline
  • Sensitive inputs masked by default for privacy

Follow the path

See the full journey, not just one page

Each replay sits inside the visitor’s complete journey — landing page to exit. Spot where the flow breaks, where shoppers loop back in confusion, and exactly which step precedes a drop-off.

  • Page-to-page flow for every session
  • Identify the step before abandonment
  • Connect a replay to its heatmap and suggested fix

Smart filters

Watch the right sessions, not all of them

Behavior

Rage & dead clicks

Jump straight to the sessions where a shopper repeatedly clicked a stuck element or tapped something that wasn't clickable.

Intent

Cart abandonment

Filter to sessions that added to cart but never checked out — the highest-value recordings to study.

Device

Mobile vs desktop

Isolate mobile sessions to find thumb-zone friction that desktop QA never reveals.

Source

Traffic channel

Watch how visitors from a specific campaign or referrer behave, so you can fix the experience that ad spend lands on.

Common questions

Session replay feature — frequently asked

What is Shopify visitor session recording?

Session recording captures a real visitor's interaction with your store — movement, clicks, taps, scrolling, and navigation — and lets you replay it like a video. It's the fastest way to understand the why behind your conversion numbers, because you watch the experience exactly as the shopper had it.

Is DynoWeb's session replay privacy-compliant?

Yes. It respects Shopify's Customer Privacy API and consent state and masks sensitive form inputs by default. It reconstructs behavior, not private keystrokes — designed for GDPR and CCPA compliance.

How is the replay feature different from the session replay pillar?

Same capability, different depth. This page covers the feature itself — recording, filtering, and how replays connect to fixes. The broader guide at /shopify-session-replay explains how to use session replay as part of a complete CRO workflow.

Will recording sessions slow my store down?

No. The DynoWeb tracker is under 40 KB and loads asynchronously, so recording adds negligible overhead and your Core Web Vitals are unaffected.
