What is the 'App embed'?

The app embed should be enabled. Our tracking works without it, but enabling it improves data accuracy by around 5–10%, especially for traffic coming from apps like Facebook and Instagram.

Here is why:

Shopify’s standard pixel works inside a restricted environment. This causes two main challenges:

  1. Ad blockers
    Without the app embed, tracking data is sent through our domain instead of your own website domain. Many ad blockers recognise this and block the requests, which leads to lost data.
  2. In-app browsers (Facebook, Instagram, etc.)
    Browsers inside apps often block certain tracking requests. This can cause additional data loss, especially on mobile.

When you enable the app embed, it helps bypass these limitations. It allows tracking to communicate more directly and reliably, which improves overall accuracy.
