That's a really fantastic point. I would imagine they work b/c it would be against FB/IG's interests to block their own pixel. It's their in-app browser. We'll see what the data shows. If that's the case, I can do server to server events for Facebook but will be SOL for the others.
Currently, it seems all 3rd party cookies are blocked in webkit. Browsers on iOS are all based on webkit, so no way around that. There is the option to use script-writable storage (like localStorage) but those expire after 7 days of inactivity. But within that 7 days your solution could work maybe?
Nice solution! I do wonder if using the facebook/snapchat/tiktok pixels will work as webkit uses ITP which blocks 3rd party cookies by default though?
