Coworker receiving "Webpage not available" when authenticating into Android app

Question

One of my coworkers is trying to authenticate into his Opsgenie app on his pixel 5a running lineage and when he does, he gets an error, "Webpage not available at" (url of opsgenieauth) "could not be loaded because: net::ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME".  He is able to access OpsGenie via desktop without issues.  Does anyone have an idea of what could be done to fix this?

Hii, Alex

The error message ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME being faced while authenticating into his  Opsgenie app on his pixel 5a running lineage. This kind of error is a browser-related problem that appears when the browser is able to process a URL that it simply doesn’t know how to handle. URL scheme is the first element of a URL that defines the protocol that is necessary. It can be broadly categorized into issues related to custom URL schemes, browser compatibility, extensions and typos. There are many different fixes for it which can be as:-

1) Clear your browser cache and cookies

2) Deactivate Chrome extensions temporarily

3) Create a new user profile

4) Disable Hardware Acceleration in Chrome etc

So you need to understand in detail for the fixes and maybe helpful in solving the error.
