[success] Android looking great! 👌

Platform(s)

Android

Current Behavior

This happens when the app is opened from the push listener 'notificationActionPerformed'
In the notification data: urlToOpen = 'www.google.com'
When using .open({url: urlToOpen}) app crashes & stays unresponsive until app data are cleared

If the urlToOpen = 'https://www.google.com/' --> works as expected.

Expected Behavior

Open the url in the in app browser

Code Reproduction

 FirebaseMessaging.addListener('notificationActionPerformed', async (event) => {
        const urlToOpen = event.notification.data.urlToOpen;
        await Browser.open({
          url: urlToOpen,
        });
      });
