How to implement deep links in WebViews and Safari

We have an app distributed within our organization through Intune. Our Intune policy restricts any links to be opened on browsers other than Microsoft Edge.

In case of Android and Chrome browser, we prepend 'microsoft-edge:' before the link urls and the Android webview as well as Chrome browser handles this deep link and opens the links in Edge browser.

We would like similar functionality in case of Safari and iOS WebViews but we have not been able to find a solution. If we prepend the string in urls, nothing happens.

Please let us know if this is possible in case of iOS or could there be a workaround?

Thanks,
