Renaming Notes Breaks Internal Links iOS On App

Steps to reproduce

Create notes called “Parent” and “Child”. Create an internal link in Parent to Child using [Child](obsidian://open?vault=YOURVAULT&file=Child). Click this link to confirm it works. Once in the Child note, rename it to Child1. Return to Parent note and click the Child link. It is now broken.

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]

Yes

Expected result

I expect a notification to appear that a link has been updated in ‘n’ files as it does on desktop.

Actual result

A notification appears at the bottom of the interface: “File “Child” not found.”

I don’t believe Obsidian URLs are auto-updated like internal links are.

It could be a good feature request if there isn’t one already.

You used external obsidian links. The internal ones are like this [[note]]. Only internal links are auto updated.
