Prefetch – Instant Page Speed
Speeds up storefront navigation by preloading the next page before shoppers click.
What it does
Most Shopify stores feel quick on the first page and slow on every click after. Prefetch quietly preloads the next page in the background the moment a shopper signals intent, so transitions feel instant. The Lighthouse score does not change. The shopper experience does.
Features
Smart prefetching on intent
Hover on desktop, tap on mobile. Prefetch starts loading the destination before the click registers.
Core Web Vitals speed scan
See where your storefront stands on the metrics Google uses for rankings, refreshed automatically.
Storefront error monitoring

Multi-store analytics

How it works
Install Prefetch from the Shopify App Store, enable the theme app embed, and your storefront starts preloading pages on hover and tap intent. The included speed scan and analytics show you the impact over time.
