How to choose
- Decide which question your shoppers most need answered: "how will it look on me?", "which size?", or "what goes with it?".
- Shortlist two or three apps whose listings cover that question, and install their free plans or trials on the same products.
- Run the full journey on a phone, from product page to cart, and judge size advice separately from how realistic any image looks.
- Compare conversion and returns over the same period, not vendors' headline claims.
