   > how would you define a third party cookie?
   
   Third party cookies are cookies set from a different origin. Your cordova webview will either have an origin of `null` or if you're using schemes on cordova-ios, it will be set to your scheme (e.g: `app://localhost`).
   
   > it used to work fine with UIWebview. But with WKWebview, things are breaking.
   
   `WKWebView` has added a lot restrictions surrounding cookies. [More restrictions](https://www.adexchanger.com/privacy/apple-wwdc-2020-a-version-of-intelligent-tracking-prevention-is-coming-to-the-app-world/) may come to iOS in iOS 14 via ITP.
   
   Unfortunately this is something outside of Cordova's control. I'd consider moving away from cookies as a storage mechanism if possible. In my apps, I use HTTP headers to send authentication tokens, and I store them in a flat file using the `cordova-plugin-file`. Other storage methods is also suitable depending on your use cases.
