Error: Something went wrong opening pop-up #8636
Description
Issue Summary
Environment:
Framework: Nuxt 3
Language: TypeScript
SDK: thirdweb v5
Target: Mobile Safari (iOS)
Problem:
When using the inAppWallet social login (Google, Discord, etc.) with mode: "popup" in TypeScript, the popup window fails to open on Safari (iOS).
On the first click, no popup appears and the following error is thrown:
Something went wrong opening pop-up
The issue persists regardless of whether I use async/await, .then() chains
The problem is reproducible even with the simplest direct SDK usage, without any custom logic or store.
What I tried:
Directly calling inAppWallet().connect() in a click handler (no async/await).
Using .then() instead of await.
Ensuring COOP headers are set to same-origin-allow-popups.
Confirmed that regular window.open works in the same environment.
Result:
Only mode: "redirect" works, but it causes a full page reload and state loss, which is not acceptable for my use case.
All popup-based methods fail on Safari with the same error.
Expected:
The popup window should open on the first user click, and the OAuth flow should proceed as it does in other browsers.
Request:
Please investigate why inAppWallet social login popups cannot open on Safari (iOS) using the TypeScript SDK, and provide a workaround or fix.
