Why You’ll Love Robin PRO Image Gallery
Image gallery app built for 2023 Fast, mobile-first, beautiful. Create a great first impression that converts into sales!
Faster store, more sales
Robin PRO doesn’t make your store slower. In fact, you’ll make your store load much faster by moving your product images to Robin PRO. Unlike other apps, Robin PRO quietly works in the background and lets your store fully load before it renders your galleries.
Flexible
Choose between grid or masonry gallery layouts. Easily customize all parameters.
Instant image delivery
Fast content delivery network (CDN) - the same one used by the likes of reddit or Product Hunt. Your visitors will download your images from a server nearest to where they currently are. It doesn’t get faster than that!
Smart image optimization
Robin PRO automatically compresses and optimizes your images. They will be delivered without loss of quality, in the right size, in stunning colors.
Safe
Dynamically apply watermarks to your images to protect them from theft.
Mobile-friendly
Enjoy the most advanced mobile support available. Horizontal swipe to browse images, spread to zoom in. Vertical swipe or pinch to close gallery.
Beautiful
Robust and beautiful Lightbox engine with pixel-perfect vector icons. You’ll love the zoom button (see the image in full resolution), as well as native full-screen mode.
Smart
Smart thumbnails (if your image shows a person, the thumbnail will show their face, not a random cut-out from the image) and smart image loading (Lightbox loads neighboring images based on user movement - never more than it needs).
Fun to use
Admin interface that is a pure delight to work with. Robin PRO is proudly built with Shopify’s Polaris framework. Upload your images in bulk, configure anything with one click. Add your galleries to any page with one line of code. Every interaction is instantaneous, no page reloads. Ever.
Fast setup
Let us migrate your galleries from other apps. Your visitors will get better experience with no extra effort for you.
Fully compatible
Works on any browser, computer, or mobile device. Avoid embarrassing situations when your store breaks for certain customers.
SEO-friendly
Images use captions as alt tags to help your store rank better in Google.
Pixel-perfect
Crafted using the latest technologies used by Facebook and others. We’re constantly adding new features, so that you keep getting more value out of it for the same price.
Why Robin?
Robins are fast, nimble creatures, delighting people with their beauty. I’ve developed Robin PRO from the ground up around these principles.

Changelog

Adding galleries to your homepage (or any other part of your store that works with sections) has never been easier. No need to touch code at all.
Add the section, select a gallery, save your theme, done!
Aug 22, 2020
Now you have full control over all the labels so you can customize or translate them according to your needs.
Jun 18, 2020
You can now easily sort galleries. A little quality-of-life improvement for merchants with lots of galleries.
Nov 23, 2019
When opening a gallery on a mobile device, users are presented with a quick reminder letting them know they can navigate between gallery images by swiping left and right.
Nov 5, 2019
Compact view galleries now show a Reset button to quickly minimize the expanded gallery back to the initial two rows of images.
Nov 4, 2019
Thanks to smart caching, galleries are now returned and rendered up to 2x faster!
Oct 29, 2019
App CSS style definitions are now strictly scoped. This is to prevent conflicts in rare cases when parent Shopify theme also uses Photoswipe to render its images.
Oct 8, 2019
Optimized the way the list of your galleries is loaded so that they’re only fetched once. This saves you time when you’re returning back from the gallery view to the galleries list view.
Oct 5, 2019
The same gallery can now be displayed on the same page as many times as you need. Fixed a sneaky bug that would only permit the first instance of a gallery to be rendered.
Oct 2, 2019
Image uploads are now multipart. This means they can be conveniently paused and resumed at any time.
This is especially useful when an upload fails. When you retry, you’ll resume the previous upload. You’ll never have to re-upload the whole file from scratch again.
Sep 24, 2019
Responsive images for retina screens. The app now uses srcset
to render
high-resolution images on devices that support them.
This is critical for delivering a great user experience on mobile devices. The latest iPhones, as well as most high-end Android devices require images in 3x the resolution to deliver a sharp-looking image.
Sep 13, 2019
Fixed gallery style definitions to make them immune from being overridden by theme styles.
Sep 9, 2019
Gallery image thumbnails now come with on-hover overlays. These display image caption (if provided) or show an icon as a fallback.
