On February 28, 2025, POS Links, POS cart app extensions, and POS product recommendations will be deprecated. Developers and merchants will no longer be able to view or access these extensions in Shopify POS.

We recommend you rebuild legacy extensions with [POS UI Extensions](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/pos-ui-extensions). Not only do POS UI Extensions have extensive capabilities today, but we’ll continue to grow these capabilities into the future.

**POS Links:**

* Recommendation: Rebuild using [POS UI Extensions](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/pos-ui-extensions)
* Alternative: Embed your app within Shopify POS using the Partner Dashboard. Note that merchants can manually add and access these from the smart grid.

**Cart App Extensions and Product Recommendation Extensions:**

* Recommendation: Rebuild using [POS UI Extensions](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/pos-ui-extensions). POS UI extensions provide necessary components and APIs to develop extensions that run natively on Shopify POS.
