- Server Error (Red notification box)
- Cookie Notice to enable cookies
- Constant refreshing then redirect to Admin/Apps

Browsers are cracking down on iframes that load inside webpages which don’t originate from the same url. As a result, the above issues are common.
To make your experience smoother when using Shopify and embedded apps such as SellUp, Delivery Timer and other 3rd party Apps, you can make a quick settings change to your browser.
