iOS 18 System Bug Causes URL Scheme Failure
A bug in iOS 18 causes URL Schemes to become invalid through the following steps, resulting in failure to open apps via URL Scheme.
Reproduction Steps:
- Long-press the app icon
- Select "Require Face ID"
- Choose "Hide and Require Face ID" to hide the app
- Go to the App Library and locate the hidden app in the "Hidden" folder
- Uninstall the hidden app
- reinstalling the hidden app
After reinstalling the app, all configured URL Schemes will become invalid, causing failure when attempting to open the app via URL Scheme.
The issue appears to be that after uninstalling a hidden app and reinstalling it, the system fails to restore the app's URL Scheme functionality.
