Description
The problem
Some valid url schemes seem to work (so the launch() method doesn't fail), even-though the url_launcher's canLaunch() method on flutter web returns false.
These are some examples:
- canLaunch("whatsapp://send?text=testing");
- canLaunch("twitter://post?message=testing");
Information
I have tested this on:
- My Safari browser on my Iphone XR
- Google chrome on my macbook
- Samsung J3's default browser
A solution?
Could this be fixed? Or is this not possible since you're trying to open apps from a web environment?
Thanks in advance for any help!
