How to allow popup permission of web browser in mobile

I am using Auth0 loginwithpopup in my React app. Auth0 works well in all desktops, but when I try to login it says “Could not open popup” using mobile web browser. [image] How can I avoid this and allow the permission programmatically? import React, { createContext, useEffect, useReducer } from 'react'; import { Auth0Client } from '@auth0/auth0-spa-js'; import SplashScreen from 'src/components/SplashScreen'; import { auth0Config } from 'src/config'; import axios from 'axios'; let aut…

I am going to update the error message to “Check popup permissions in the setting”.
Please let me know how to figure this out.

Hi @david.yang,

I’ve taken a look at our code and it seems that this is not configurable because the error message is currently hardcoded: auth0-spa-js/utils.ts at v1.13.6 · auth0/auth0-spa-js · GitHub

As far as I know, it would require a code change for that library. I would suggest submitting your feedback to our Product Team so they can evaluate its implementation: Auth0: Secure access for everyone. But not just anyone.

Hi @Ale .
Thanks for your help.
Btw, can I avoid the popup error still using loginwithpopup method by allowing the browser popup permission dynamically or by other way?

I don’t think that’s possible, @david.yang. Being able to change the browser (client) settings programmatically by a third-party web application would raise many security concerns immediately.

Exactly! That’s right!
