# Can I apply Variant Images to specific products instead of all products?

Yes.\
You can control where Variant Images apply by using **App Scope + product tags**.

**How to set it up:**

{% step %}
**Go to App → Variant Images**

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**In Theme Section > Select app scope, choose:**

* **Specific products** → to apply Variant Images only to tagged products
* **Exclude products** → to apply Variant Images to all products *except* tagged ones

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Add the corresponding tag to your products in Shopify:**

* Apply Variant Images only to **products tagged with `op_vi_enabled`**.

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="success" %}
With this setup, you can control Variant Images **per product directly in Shopify**, without needing to change settings in the app each time.
