Permissions
When you install a Shopify app, Shopify will ask you to approve the permissions the app needs. Permissions control what types of store data an app can access or update so it can perform the features you’ve enabled.

Permission Updates
When there is a change to the permissions required by BookThatApp you will be prompted to update when you log in.
If you are the store owner (or have permission in your Shopify login to make App changes) then you'll see the "Approve new permissions" button which will take you through the approval process in Shopify:
Please note that permission updates do not change how BookThatApp is configured or installed - these update message will only appear when permission changes need approval.
