FM AppMaker - URL Scheme issue with iOS13

Heads-Up!
1

For those who don’t know: FileMaker AppMaker is a FM-File which allows to create a " .mobilconfig" Profile to load onto your iOS device in order to get your home screen icon of choice on your device.
This profile also contains a dedicated href to grant connection to your FM-Host based on the fm URL-Scheme.
Figures out that this file is hard to find so I upload it here.Requires the BE-PlugIn for some Base64 processing.

This FM AppMaker let me figure out that the URL Scheme doesn’t work reliably anymore with iOS13.

There’s more information, but after half an hour searching, I gave up on finding my Bug Report from June 2019 :unamused:

That’s a great tool. Thanks for putting it online here.

I think this is a good place to have it stored.
I still don’t know to whom to give credits for all this, but I know that Alexis dealt with a iOS7 issue back then by adding a JavaScript:
Alexis Gehrt / Database Designs / Switzerland / alexis@database-designs.ch

Stacy Chamblee dealt a lot with it, brought adjusted versions to the community (user schamblee in the jive forums)

a notification from the SalesForce system let me finally add a link to the Bug Report:

iOS13.3 beta3 as of Nov., 20.:
I can’t replicate this issue anymore. Tested with FMGo18.0.3.

Can anybody confirm?
Issues have been reported in the past with Filemaker AppMaker and also with a process toggling between FMGo AND a SwipeReader iApp by using the URL-Scheme.
