Ghost Code is a Shopify app in the Site optimization - Other category. Every app you uninstall leaves code behind, including scripts, styles, snippets, SEO tags, tracking pixels, orphaned metafields, and more. These still load in your theme long after the app is gone. Left unchecked, orphaned code slows your store, hurts SEO, and can interfere with how customers experience your site. Ghost Code recognizes 100+ apps by signature and tells you exactly which app left each fragment, in which file, at which line.

Install footprint is observed via Ongoing.AI’s tech-detection pass against actively-tracked Shopify storefronts. Catalog position is computed at snapshot time against every active app sharing the primary category. Snapshot generated .
