How to bulk upload/import product images to Shopify?
It is painful and boring to upload images to Shopify if you have to do this for more than ten products. It can take a lot of time to upload all these images one by one, and it is easy to make a mistake in this process and assign the wrong images to products.
We noticed this pain and decided to make a Smart Bulk Image Upload app to help merchants save time by automating this process. The only important thing is to have your image names the same as the SKU of your variants. For example, if the SKU of your product is 456743, then your image name should be 456743.jpg (the extension can be any valid image extension).
If you want to assign more than one image to a single product, you can use underscore and the number of positions in your images. For example, 456743_1.jpg, 456743_2.jpg, etc.
The app is integrated with Google Drive, and you should put your images under some folder inside Google Drive to be able to upload them to Shopify. Google Drive provides a 15GB free storage limit. It probably would be enough for your requirements.
You can watch the DEMO video for step-by-step instructions on how this app works. Video is a total of 5 minutes, but it can be a good investment for you to save hours of boring image import tasks.

No joke, this is the best app to use if you have a mass amount of images to upload. I have a customer with 10,000 products that needed 10,000 images to be matched. This app solved that. Matches the product to the images. Because of this app my project went from 300 hrs (a lof of that uploading and matching the images), down to 60 hrs total. Big, BIG time saver! High recommended.GFX Auto — United States

The app performs great and saved me much time uploading and replacing images for many items in my Shopify Store. I would highly recommend to anyone in need of managing lots of inventory.
You will need to play around with settings for the file titles you want it to find, but once you have got it you are good to go. And they give you the means of verifying everything is “found” before adding or replacing images.Labels Resale Boutique — United States

One of the best time saving apps with Shopify. Just get the SKU and image names the same and the rest is automatic. I have uploaded nearly a 1000 images without issues. This app has saved me hours !Traralgon Sugarbabies — Australia

This app is truly awesome, but if you run into a snag, the helpdesk is extremely helpful and will go to any length to satisfy your needs. I asked for a way to upload without the need to change all the filenames to conform to the current naming conventions and Farid (owner) actually changed it so I no longer have to do this. How awesome is that?!!!Trustables — United States

When I first started using this app a little over a month ago, I found it had some limitations regarding the functionality of matching up image file names and required SEO image preferred naming method. Farid and the team quickly reviewed my points and within 48hrs had a vastly improved option that works 100%. This team has taken on other suggestions and delivers a result. It’s now a great app and one that must be in your tool kit if you are serious about managing the large number of image files that Shopify expects.Onlinetonerau — Australia
