**Widget → Appearance** is draft-based. The preview on the right shows your storefront mock-up with the draft settings; publish to apply them.

| ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Enabled                | Switching it off removes the launcher from your store after publishing                                                                               |
| Position and offset    | Bottom right or left, 0–200 px from the edges                                                                                                        |
| Accent colour          | Any colour; the widget picks black or white text for contrast automatically. A warning appears if the launcher outline would fall below 3:1 contrast |
| Theme                  | Light, dark or automatic (follows the shopper's system)                                                                                              |
| Corner radius and font | 0–24 px; system font stacks only (the widget loads no web fonts)                                                                                     |

| Visibility             | **Everyone**, or **Only my team** (staff IP addresses and test links)                                                                                |

## Powered by ShopAssist [#powered-by]

On the Free plan, a small "Powered by ShopAssist" link is shown and can't be removed (Shopify stores show a small icon instead). Paid plans can hide it. While the assistant is unavailable because of a plan limit, the attribution is hidden.

## Shopify theme overrides [#shopify]

The Shopify app embed has two optional theme settings: launcher position and accent colour. Leave them on **Use app setting** to manage the look in ShopAssist.

## Preview [#preview]

Toggle mobile and desktop, home, product and cart pages, languages and light or dark mode. The preview runs the real widget on a separate preview origin with a test key: it is never billed and writes nothing to storage.
