Getting started takes just two steps: install the app and enable the app embed. After that, everything below is optional configuration you can set up whenever you need it.
Getting live takes two quick steps. Once the app embed is on, the Notify Me button appears automatically on your theme, no code, no developer.
Open the Alert Me! App Store listing, click Install, and approve the permissions. You'll land on the Alert Me! dashboard inside your Shopify admin.
On the dashboard, open the App embed card, choose your live theme, and click Activate. Toggle Alert Me! on in the theme editor and click Save. The Notify Me button now shows automatically on out-of-stock products in that theme.
If you run multiple themes, enable the embed on the one currently published to customers.


Everything below is optional, set it up in any order, whenever you need it. The defaults work out of the box.
Open the Back in Stock module to control which products qualify and how alerts are delivered.

From Customization, style the Notify Me button and popup to match your brand. The live preview updates as you edit.


Decide where the Notify Me button appears across your storefront.



Want the Notify Me button somewhere specific on the product page, such as right under the price or below the variant picker? Add the Alert Me! app block and drag it into place. No theme code needed.
The app block gives you full control over placement. If you don't add one, the Notify Me button falls back to its default position automatically.

Make sure the app embed is enabled on your published theme (Step 2), and that the product is actually out of stock with inventory tracking turned on. If it still doesn't appear, contact us and we'll take a look.
