From Auth0:

renewAuth was the old way of updating tokens, and it required a separate callback page to complete the flow (it was possible to not have one, but needed the callback page for the process to be efficient).

We recently introduced checkSession which does not have the friction mentioned above. It makes use of what is known as the Web Message Response Mode internally and has the same API as that of renewAuth.
So even though the renewAuth method is still available, we recommend that you go with checkSession.

It isn't a feature that is actually supported by browsers, see here, so closing.
