Description

Hi Team,

I was reviewing the section on "Deep links / URL schemes" at https://book.hacktricks.xyz/mobile-pentesting/android-app-pentesting/android-applications-basics and noticed a potential discrepancy. The example provided in the AndroidManifest.xml is as follows:

<activity android:name=".MyActivity">
  <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="examplescheme" />
  </intent-filter>
</activity>

While the scheme is described as exampleapp://, the android:scheme attribute is defined as examplescheme, which suggests that the correct scheme should be examplescheme:// instead.

I understand this may not be a high priority issue, but I wanted to bring it to your attention since Hacktricks is a valuable resource for many learners. Even minor inaccuracies can lead to confusion for those studying Android penetration testing.

I'm still in the learning phase myself, and I appreciate any feedback on this.

Thank you for your time!
