Steps to verify

  • Compare the intended public contact.
  • Check the device’s launch behavior.
  • Match visible labels to actual values.

How to interpret the result

Special-scheme classification identifies destination type. It does not verify successful email delivery or calls.

Deciding what to do next

A visible new contact can retain an old underlying value. Review the public address and responsible process too.

Feature scope

Extract and classify fetched HTML links without visiting every destination for 404 checks. Script-generated links can be missing.

Frequently asked questions

Are special links errors?
