Describe the bug

Currently, I’m encountering an error when using the MetaMask connector on mobile. It used to work fine, but recently the error started occurring.

Condition: MetaMask wallet is not installed on the mobile device.

Action: Click the button to connect to MetaMask.

Actual:

• On Safari, an error popup says: "Safari cannot open the page because the address is invalid."
• On Chrome, a warning appears about navigation.

Expected: Redirect to the MetaMask App Store.

Please check it for me, thanks!
