fails to initialise if in iframe on Chrome 49 Android 6.0.1 about webvr-polyfill HOT 10 CLOSED

Are you in Incognito Mode?

i don't think so, @cvan .
49 on 6.0.1 is the only browser I tested to deny access to localStorage there.

Do you have "Block third-party cookies and site data" or something like that enabled?

from webvr-polyfill.

Blocking third-party cookies would definitely do this. Or possibly an extension, maybe something like Privacy Badger? I've had third-party cookies blocked on my browser for years, and it's amazing how many sites forget to check for this. But it should be handled, since it's a well-defined, predictable, standard behavior built into the browsers. Same deal here.

Maybe it would have been better to have localStorage just return empty values rather than throw an error, but that ship has sailed.

Ping @gmarinov. More information needed. Are you using some kind of 3rd party blocker?

from webvr-polyfill.

no

Can't repro without more info.

Whitelisting storageapis.google.com via "Settings -> Advanced -> Content Settings -> Cookies -> Manage Exceptions" fixed this issue for me on desktop Chrome. I was running into the same " Failed to read the 'localStorage' " error in the console.

Seeing as my answers above maybe did not make this clear enough.

• no blockers
• stock android and chrome from play store
• no incognito mode
• javascript is enabled
• safe browsing enabled
• cookies allowed except third-party cookies
• do not track is on

Whitelisting storageapis.google.com by going to "Settings -> Advanced -> Content Settings -> Cookies -> Manage Exceptions", is something I cannot ask of the user. The code itself has no default fallback.

Is it possible to fix webvr-polyfill to allow incognito mode?
