What's going wrong

Merchants using several ad-channel apps on Shopify report that the app crashes or freezes repeatedly, sometimes on nearly every click, and that admin screens or pages never finish loading. Reports come from owners of social, marketplace and video-posting ad tools, which points to a shared stability gap rather than one vendor's bug. One merchant lost a Black Friday launch to the crashes, and reinstalling did not help others. Owners lose time and cannot manage ad settings when it matters most. The opportunity is a crash monitoring and session replay tool for small embedded-app teams that groups front-end errors, records the failing screen, and helps them recover unsaved drafts.
