# Themes overview

> How AndOr works on each Shopify theme we test, with a status table for app blocks, the cart drawer and instant updates, and a page per theme.

Source: https://backtrackhq.com/docs/themes/overview/

AndOr's storefront widgets work on any Online Store 2.0 theme. How much
works depends on the theme: the cart drawer parts and instant updates
need a theme that sends Shopify's storefront cart events. The rules are
on [Theme requirements](https://backtrackhq.com/docs/get-started/theme-requirements/).

This section has a page for each theme we test, with where each block
goes, style tips, cart drawer notes and known quirks.

## Status by theme

| Theme | Tested | App blocks | Cart drawer | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Horizon](https://backtrackhq.com/docs/themes/horizon/) | 4.3.0 | Yes | Yes, 4.0 or later | Cards take AndOr blocks |
| [Tinker](https://backtrackhq.com/docs/themes/tinker/) | 4.3.0 | Yes | Yes | Built on Horizon |
| [Dawn](https://backtrackhq.com/docs/themes/dawn/) | 16.1.0 | Yes | Yes, 15.5 or later | Cards need the recipes |
| [Sense](https://backtrackhq.com/docs/themes/sense/) | 16.1.0 | Yes | Yes | Built on Dawn |
| Other free Horizon and Dawn themes | Not yet | Yes | At their latest version | Expected to match |
| Other 2.0 themes | Not tested | Most sections | Only with the events | Most paid themes lack them |
| [Vintage themes](https://backtrackhq.com/docs/themes/vintage/) | No, stand-in only | No | No | One-line tags and the app embed only |

All tests ran on our demo store on October 16, 2026. **Cart drawer**
also means instant updates: both need the same events, and every tested
2.0 theme sends them.

> **Tip:** Not sure what your theme supports? Open your store, add a
> product to the cart and open the cart drawer. If your AndOr goal bar
> or gift slot shows there, your theme sends the events.

## Your theme isn't listed

- **It is an Online Store 2.0 theme:** add the AndOr blocks in the
  theme editor. Where a section has no **Add block** for apps, a
  developer can paste a [one-line tag](https://backtrackhq.com/docs/developers/one-line-tags/).
- **It has a custom cart drawer:** a developer can make it send the
  events. See [Cart drawer](https://backtrackhq.com/docs/developers/custom-themes/#cart-drawer).
- **Something looks wrong:** email
  [andor@backtrackhq.com](mailto:andor@backtrackhq.com) with your theme's
  name and version.
