I think you are testing the dev site right ?
Give me the store access.
It is saying that update your internet browser.
You have to live the store then check...
Hello @ashutoshsingh,
We have checked your Issue, and it seems that you are not using the latest version of Chrome, your current chrome version is 98.0 and the latest version is 103.0 hence, please update the chrome to avoid this issue.
Refer to the image below.
Let us know if you need any further help.

Hi,
Thanks for responding. I already checked that as the first thing. I am
using latest version of chrome.
And it's very strange that while testing the app, it is showing some older
version.
Thanks
I have the same issue as well. What is the deal here? We want to publish the app for review and this is basically the last thing on our todo list. Have been looking at this confused and totally "wrong" error message for two days now with no resolution. How do we fix this?
Hi @mapp123 ,
Although I didn't get a proper solution, I got a sort of workaround, try to run Analyse by giving a max window to page. When the test starts, you can see an option to `Continue with unsupported Browser` then click it whenever it comes. Testing will resume after you click that option.Mobile testing
Thanks

Thank you for the suggestion. Already tried it, but it corrupts the test and reduces the score of the app. We are in the 80% mark, except seo is around 75%.
Hello,
I am sorry you are experience this problem. Was this a requeriment from Shopify to approve your app?
According to the official documentation, performance testing is only required for the storefront, not the Shopify Admin, see https://shopify.dev/apps/best-practices/performance#testing-for-performance
My chrome is up to date. Facing the same issue, where you able to find a solution for this other than clicking on `continue with unsupported version`?
Same here.... i am using 111 chrome version
Is a common error running lighthouse inside a chrome dev tools, the good news is that there are more options to run it 🌞
npm install -g lighthouse
Run chrome from lighouse, and login into Shopify app.
npx chrome-debug
After that in console you get a port number, something like this
✨Chrome debugging port: 65405 # This port will be used in the last step
Go to your shop and login in the lighthouse recently opened browser
Next run lighthouse to see results
npx lighthouse https://admin.shopify.com/store/<your-shop-name>/apps/<your-app-name> --disable-storage-reset --port <your-port, in prev steps it was be generated> --view
It will take some time, after that will open in your browser all lighthose report
