Title:
Firefox Snap won't open links to WhatsApp API
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The .deb version of Firefox handles links to WhatsApp API
(https://api.whatsapp.com/send/?phone=....) without any problem: these
links open the WhatsApp web client.
Snap version of Firefox doesn't know how to handle these links. It
opens the pop up "Choose an application to open whatsapp lnks" that
only shows the option System Handler (which fails opening them if
selected).
Choosing Firefox is not possible as /bin and similar folders are out
of range for the snap.
