Deep links unintentionally intercept unrelated links on Android #122

From the user report:

There seems to be a strange glitch with the auslan dictionary app. I had to uninstall it due to this a while ago, and just reinstalled it and see the same problem so I'm now having to uninstall it again.

When I click on a link with my phone, instead of taking me to whatever link I've clicked, the signbank app opens. It's very strange. For example I've just had an email from my workplace and need to confirm a shift they have sent me, I click on the email link which should take me to the work website and instead the signbank app opens.

I have a Samsung phone, not sure if others have had the same issue.

I removed deeplinking from Android for now: 369af3376199bc828ef693895d6f694f96ec3118. I'll release this and see if that fixes the problem.
