CFBundleURLTypes
CFBundleURLTypes (Array - iOS, macOS) contains an array of dictionaries, each of which describes the URL schemes (http, ftp, and so on) supported by the app. The purpose of this key is similar to that of CFBundleDocumentTypes, but it describes URL schemes instead of document types. Each dictionary entry corresponds to a single URL scheme. Table 7 lists the keys to use in each dictionary entry.
