Universal Link from HTML/JS

We have been testing universal links and detected the following: Assuming there is an HTML with embedded JS that redirects to the universal link.

**Direct redirection --> WORKS OK **

window.location.href = "https://my-universal-link?data=abc";

Redirection with timeOut or Interval --> NOT WORKING (go to default WEB)

setTimeout(function () { window.location.href = "https://my-universal-link?data=abc"; }, 2000);

setInterval(function () { window.location.href = "https://my-universal-link?data=abc"; }, 2000);
