The correct approach is the app to provide an `oembed`, so it will onebox and will be able to use an iframe inside the onebox.

Like a Google Maps uses an iframe:

https://maps.google.com/maps?ll=-23.6070449,-46.5407708&z=16&output=embed&dg=ntvb&q=Vila+Industrial,+S%C3%A3o+Paulo+-+State+of+S%C3%A3o+Paulo
