Other Schemes

Any URI scheme not listed above still works — 0io.io will generate a generic redirect page using the scheme name as the label. For example:

https://0io.io/magnet:?xt=urn:btih:...
https://0io.io/steam://run/730
https://0io.io/obsidian://open?vault=MyVault

Dangerous Schemes

The following schemes are considered dangerous and will not auto-redirect. Users must explicitly click to proceed:

SchemeRisk
javascript:Can execute arbitrary code in the browser
data:Can render arbitrary content (phishing risk)
vbscript:Can execute arbitrary code (IE/legacy)

These pages display prominent security warnings and require manual confirmation.

Turn any URI scheme into a clickable HTTP link.
