The app doesn't handle Special: pages of any kind.
Would it be possible for us to modify our intent-filter to exclude paths that start with Special:?

Looks like the current android:pathPattern in the intent-filter only supports * and .*.

I found an interesting 3rd party library from AirBnb which handles Deeplinks: https://github.com/airbnb/DeepLinkDispatch, maybe we can get some ideas from it.

Team to look into whether solution @Dbrant mentioned is possible.
