App embed blocks are Shopify's way of letting apps add features directly to your theme. Think of them as building blocks that bring app functionality - like Transcy's language and currency switcher - right into your store design.
These blocks can include product reviews, pricing displays, ratings, or in Transcy's case, your multilingual switcher. You can easily manage them through Shopify's Theme Editor - adding, removing, or customizing as needed.
The fastest way to activate your switcher:
Go to the Switcher menu inside your Transcy app
Follow the activation instructions shown there
Click the direct link provided - it takes you straight to the Theme Editor
The Transcy App embed toggle is already enabled
Simply hit Save to complete the process
From your Shopify admin, navigate to Online Store → Themes
Find your active theme and click Customize
Click the App embeds tab
Toggle ON the Transcy app embed
Click Save
Open the Shopify app and tap Store
In Sales channels, tap Online Store
Tap Manage themes
Find your theme and tap Customize
Click the App embeds tab
Toggle ON the Transcy embed
Click Save
Important: After activation, double-check your switcher visibility settings in the Transcy app. You can choose between:
Only admin mode (visible only to you)
Everyone mode (visible to all store visitors)
To deactivate the switcher, simply follow the same steps and toggle OFF, then click Save.
Good to know:
When you uninstall Transcy, the app embed block associated with Transcy will be automatically and entirely removed from online store themes
For advanced switcher customization, return to your Transcy app's Switcher settings. Learn more about switcher setup here.
