Categories Uncomplicated and NAU Scroll to Top, while both categorized under 'Search and navigation' and 'Navigation and menus' in the Shopify App Store, serve vastly different purposes. Categories Uncomplicated focuses on enhancing product discoverability and organization by enabling merchants to create hierarchical category structures, improve SEO through dynamic JSON-LD, and integrate breadcrumbs and sub-category icons. It's targeted towards merchants with larger product catalogs needing a robust organizational system. NAU Scroll to Top, conversely, is a simple utility app designed to improve user experience by adding a customizable scroll-to-top button to the storefront. Its value proposition is ease of use and improved navigation, particularly on longer pages, appealing to merchants of all sizes aiming for a smoother user experience. The primary difference lies in the problem they solve: Categories Uncomplicated addresses product catalog organization, while NAU Scroll to Top focuses on basic page navigation.

For merchants struggling with organizing a large product catalog and optimizing SEO for product discovery, Categories Uncomplicated is the clear choice. Its features directly address the need for structured product categorization and provide tangible SEO benefits. The higher rating and existing reviews suggest a proven track record.
NAU Scroll to Top, while potentially useful for any store, offers a much narrower functionality. It's ideal for stores prioritizing a quick and easy way to improve user experience on long pages. However, the lack of reviews makes it difficult to gauge its reliability and effectiveness. Therefore, if category management is a primary concern, Categories Uncomplicated is the superior option.
NAU Scroll to Top is designed for extremely easy installation with its seamless theme integration and no coding requirement. Categories Uncomplicated offers drag-and-drop install for 2.0 themes, but requires manual coding for older 1.0 themes, making it potentially more complex to install.
Categories Uncomplicated offers a direct SEO benefit by dynamically generating JSON-LD metadata for categories, which can improve search engine visibility. NAU Scroll to Top doesn't directly impact SEO.
If you are not having trouble organizing your products in the first place, NAU Scroll to Top might be more useful for providing a better user experience. Categories Uncomplicated is aimed at merchants with a lot of different products.
Categories Uncomplicated helps build a hierarchical set of categories, visualise them with icons and breadcrumbs, and define your categories. It doesn't mention offering full customization of entire category pages. It focuses on the category structure and how it's presented.
Yes, theoretically you can use both apps together as they address different aspects of the store's functionality: product organization and basic page navigation. One deals with the products themselves, while the other deals with navigating long pages.
