Research direction

Start by reproducing the warning in MetaMask Mobile 7.60.4 on an iPhone 16 Plus running iOS, using the Geckoterminal pool and pumppad.gg URLs listed in the report. Compare the behavior with Chrome and Safari and inspect the TradingView pages; done means the charts open in MetaMask Mobile without the external-application warning.
