The embedded Shopify apps load correctly when navigated from the Shopify admin. However, performing a browser refresh results in a blank page.

Hi folks, we have deployed a change that should resolve this issue.

It’s happening in production exactly with 2 of our apps as well (and also with native Shopify apps like Search and Discovery). When clicking the navigation link to the app opens, but when refreshing the page it keeps loading endlessly with a blank page.

Facing the same issue on all of our apps..

Facing the same issue across our apps and others.

We are facing the same issue. It actually happens with all apps even Shopify apps. @Henry_Tao might this be related to some update to app bridge?

Seems to be happening to all apps.

Same issue, in my case it happens when trying to redirect to billing page within the app.

From my tests this does not occur on all stores, but it impacts all apps and redirections. The concern is that it also affects the redirection after the charges are confirmed. @Liam-Shopify tagging you here if you can escalate.

Same issue here. It only works when navigating from let’s say Home to an app. But refreshing the page when viewing an app will result in a blank page.

This is also breaking app installs

Seems like similar issue to this one which happened about a month ago : Redirect loop if I press enter on the address bar to load the app again
