Why do iOS Universal Links consistently open regardless of the designated path?

edit

iOS Universal Links are designed to allow apps to deep-link to specific content within another app or website. When a user clicks on a Universal Link, iOS checks to see if there is an associated app installed on the device that can handle that link. If so, the link will open in the app, rather than the browser.

This behavior is consistent across all iOS devices because it is controlled by the operating system. When a link is clicked, iOS will automatically redirect to the associated app, regardless of the designated path, as long as the app is installed on the device.

Additionally, Universal Links are encrypted and verified using SSL certificates, which ensures that the links are secure and cannot be intercepted by malicious actors or linked to phishing sites, further bolstering the reliability and trustworthiness of the links.
