Can't open a pop up in a site using this app. I get msg that says "cannot open window, pop up blockers may be blocking this window". Is this even possible to open? I can do it in Safari.

Popups are blocked by default. It is not possible to allow popups for a specific website at this point.

You can allow them temporarily by opening the settings where you can turn the "Block Pop-up Windows" options off.

The settings can be found by opening the Tab Tray and then tapping the settings icon, which looks like a cog.
