Did you develop Shopify embedded apps or standalone web app?

Which way is good and why?

    My app was in embedded mode earlier but recent browser security updates especially in incognito mode have caused it to break so I switched to standalone mode. I have seen one or two app that work in embedded mode if you are using them in regular browser mode but work as standalone when in incognito mode. Personally, I find standalone mode to be better in terms of managing session.

      We are building an embedded app.
      We have a standalone app as well but it does not use the Polaris framework but if you go with the Polaris framework, it shouldn't matter whether it is embedded or standalone though I personally prefer embedded. It feels more native.

  2. 1

    We have 2 apps and both are embeded.
    Didn't try standalone.
