1. Shabbat Mode
Shabbat Mode (a.k.a. Sabbath Mode) is an easy-to-use Shopify app that allows you to close your shop for holidays and special days. You may set up a weekly closing time (for example every Saturday), and on specific dates or add as many dates as you want. Besides that, you can select to use the visitor’s timezone or your shop’s timezone to close your store. When your shop is closed, your website visitors will see a page with a countdown timer to let them know when the store will re-open.
