# Shopify Store Slow? How to Speed It Up Without Losing Features

Shopify stores are usually slowed by apps that load scripts on every page, leftover code from apps you removed, large images and an outdated theme. Remove what you don’t use, clean out leftover code and compress images before you consider a new theme.

## Try this first

- Check Shopify’s web performance report and run PageSpeed Insights

If the store relies on many apps or custom code, cleanup needs care so you don’t break checkout, reviews or subscriptions.
