Description

Currently, the Jira app for iOS only supports opening standard web links (https://) and universal links from URL fields. Custom URI scheme links (such as omnifocus:// or obsidian://) are not recognized or opened by the app.

On macOS (and other desktop environments), these custom URI scheme links work as expected: clicking a link like omnifocus://... or obsidian://... correctly hands it off to the operating system, which then opens the corresponding application—provided it is installed.

On iOS, when viewing the same Jira issues in the Jira iOS app:

• URL fields containing custom URI schemes are not treated as actionable links, or
• Tapping them does not trigger iOS to open the associated app.

This limits workflows where Jira issues are integrated with:

• Task managers and GTD tools (e.g. OmniFocus via omnifocus://, Things via things://)
• Note-taking / PKM apps (e.g. Obsidian via obsidian://)
• Shortcuts / automation (shortcuts://)
• Other productivity or domain-specific apps that rely on custom URI schemes.

Enabling support for these links on iOS would make Jira more interoperable with the broader iOS ecosystem and align behavior with Jira on macOS and the web.

Requested Behavior

When a user taps a custom URI scheme link in the Jira iOS app (for example in a URL field, description, or comment):

• Jira should pass the URI to iOS so the system can route it to the registered application.
• If the corresponding app is installed, the app should open at the appropriate location/context defined by the URI.
