Refreshing POS Cafe

To open quickly, the POS Cafe tile keeps a copy of your menu data on each POS device. Once that copy is more than 4 hours old, the tile refreshes it in the background and your changes appear the next time the tile is opened. If you update your cafe collections, items, modifiers or cafe discounts in the Shopify admin and want to see the changes immediately on your POS device, refresh POS Cafe manually.

Additionally, we recommend re-syncing your entire Shopify POS app whenever significant changes are made to your Shopify products.
