Action Performed:
- Log in to e.cash and navigate to a conversation
- Paste and send these links that contain colons:
A. https://www.google.com/maps/place/%E9%9D%92%E5%B3%B6%E9%80%A3%E7%B5%A1%E8%88%B9%E4%B9%97%E5%A0%B4/@33.7363156,132.4877213,17.78z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x3545615c8c65bf7f:0xb89272c1a705a33f!8m2!3d33.7366776!4d132.4878843
B. https://www.google.com/maps/place/The+Flying+Saucer/@42.4043314,-86.2742418,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xe28f6108670216bc!8m2!3d42.4043316!4d-86.2742121
- Notice that the links are cut off after the colon and therefore don't hyperlink correctly.
Expected Result:
Links including colons should be correctly hyperlinked. In this example when clicked, should redirect to:
A. The cat island in Japan (and yes, it's an island full of cats)
B. The Flying Saucer in South Haven, MI
Actual Result:
Both links are not hyperlinked correctly and cut off after the colon.

Workaround:
User has to manually select the full link and paste it in the URL bar.

Notes/Photos/Videos:
Most Google Maps links are affected by this because they contain colons in the URL.
Please check the screenshot in Actual result.
I will try different links from other sites and, if I find more affected by this, will post the ones that have the same issue in comments.

Links pasted into chats sometimes get cut off and the full link isn't properly hyperlinked in a message, especially for Google Maps links.
