I am not sure about ente-auth:// pattern, any reason you included it here?

I saw ente-auth:// pattern (with a -) is registered in AndroidManifest.xml:

ente/mobile/apps/auth/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml

Lines 19 to 24 in 164efcf

<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>
<data android:scheme="ente-auth"/>
</intent-filter>

along with the enteauth:// pattern (without a -):

ente/mobile/apps/auth/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml

Lines 33 to 38 in 164efcf

<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="enteauth" />
</intent-filter>

Let me know if I should remove the one with the -.

try {
final uri = Uri.parse(link);
if (uri.host != "search") return;
final searchQuery = uri.queryParameters['query'];
if (searchQuery != null && searchQuery.isNotEmpty) {
_showSearchBox = true;
_textController.text = searchQuery;
_searchText = searchQuery;
_applyFilteringAndRefresh();
}
} catch (e) {
_logger.warning("Malformed ente-auth deep link: $link", e);
}
} else if (mounted && lowerLink.startsWith("otpauth://")) {
try {
final newCode = Code.fromOTPAuthUrl(link);
getNextTotp(newCode);
