Magic Zoom Plus

LAST EDIT: After receiving a new message from the support, I realized that the mistake was mine. I had ticked the retina image switches for the zoom and the gallery which had caused my images to display too small. All fixed now and the app is back on our Website. Many thanks to Paula for her help! I decide"d to keep the entire review as it is as it may help other people who may face the same issue ;) This app is great!

EDIT: I’m disabling the app today while concerns #2 and #3 are being addressed. However, the way my images are displayed on click is the real deal breaker. When the gallery opens, the images appear even smaller than in the initial view. Unfortunately, this is completely counterproductive and pushes visitors to close the gallery.

I still don’t understand why the app can’t display images the way Shopify does natively. While Shopify’s approach sometimes enlarges images too much (depending on the original size), at least visitors get a proper zoom when they click.

It’s a shame because otherwise, this app is very well done and probably ideal for businesses that can share full-resolution images without concerns about counterfeiting.

INITIAL REVIEW: I have been using this app for a couple of years now and I'm globally very satisfied! It does what it says and doesn't slow down our Website. To top it off, it's super fairly priced with a one-time payment!

Only missing features to make it perfect are:
- the ability to zoom expand beyond the actual size of the image (like a digital zoom effect). Because if your images are not big enough, the expanded view makes no difference with the initial size.
- a feature to force all images to display at the same size in the gallery view
- a feature to display the image captions in the gallery (not when zoomed or expanded)

The app is really good and the support team has been very helpful.
only this is I would love if they can implement adding video onto the extended view it would be so helpful.

Not only is this app awesome at customising how your products appear on your website, but the support is second to none. Our product pages would be nothing without Magic Zoom Plus and the team behind it.

Works in Impulse theme, but doesn't seem to work in Influence theme.

An image "zoom" feature was an absolute must for our store which sells high-end statues and action figures (where the customer needed to be able to see the detail and quality of the products). Our theme is fully responsive so the guys at Magic Zoom helped us tailor the app to also be fully responsive to our site and ensured that the site worked in all major browsers. This was a very big ask and the support from these guys was simply amazing!!!!! Big thanks from www.redhottoys.co.uk
