[Android] App is crashing on launch when opening from an URL

[renchap]

When the app is started from opening an URL, it crashes with:

Version is Android 12, I am not sure how to get the full Intent that is causing the app to crash.

Same issue here! 🤚 I'm able to reproduce this by opening a deeplink to my application through slack. When I try to do it through other apps such as email, SMS or even the notes device application the app opens with no issues.

Also, I noticed that from Slack side the Intent is coming with extras that contain this BinderProxy: Bundle[{android.support.customtabs.extra.SESSION=android.os.BinderProxy@2a28f88, android.support.customtabs.extra.TITLE_VISIBILITY=1, android.support.customtabs.extra.MENU_ITEMS=[Bundle[mParcelledData.dataSize=364], Bundle[mParcelledData.dataSize=352], Bundle[mParcelledData.dataSize=356]], android.support.customtabs.extra.TOOLBAR_COLOR=-15065823, android.support.customtabs.extra.EXTRA_ENABLE_INSTANT_APPS=true, androidx.browser.customtabs.extra.SHARE_STATE=0}]

could you try npm i react-native-launch-arguments@next and check if this bug is still here
