If your primary concern is simplifying navigation on long pages and providing a quick return-to-top functionality, GS: Scroll to Top Pro *could* be an option, assuming the lack of reviews isn't a concern and you're willing to be an early adopter. However, given the absence of any reviews and thus, no social proof, it carries a higher risk. If, however, you prioritize visually highlighting products and collections with a more engaging and modern menu system, and value social proof with a strong rating and multiple reviews, KOBU ‑ Menu Highlight is the significantly stronger choice.
KOBU Menu Highlight addresses a broader set of navigation and visual merchandising needs. Given the established user base and positive feedback, it is the safer and more versatile choice for merchants looking to enhance their store's navigation and product presentation.
GS: Scroll to Top Pro claims a 'one-click setup'. KOBU ‑ Menu Highlight appears to involve adding the app to a theme section or any location on the theme 2.0 which could be considered equally easy to install.
KOBU ‑ Menu Highlight provides broader visual customization options related to menu layout, spacing, and design. While GS: Scroll to Top Pro offers customization for the scroll-to-top button's appearance, its scope is narrower.
KOBU ‑ Menu Highlight explicitly mentions support for mobile menu navigation bars, suggesting it's better optimized for mobile shoppers. GS: Scroll to Top Pro doesn't specify mobile optimization, so it's unclear how effective the scroll-to-top button is on mobile.
KOBU ‑ Menu Highlight offers menu badges specifically to highlight new items or products on sale. GS: Scroll to Top Pro lacks a similar feature.
KOBU - Menu Highlight indicates that it supports multiple languages, which means the menus can be adapted based on user language settings, whereas GS: Scroll to Top Pro does not mention language support.
