Why would done of my texts turn into url links?

[Cynthia Loodie]

Any time I wrote a lengthy text a url link will appear AFTER I send it. Some of them are map links, some are website links. I've also tried retyping my message and it turns into the same link again after sending it. They are very much clickable links and some web links are very inappropriate websites. Can someone help me with what to do to stop this from happening? I can't write song lyrics for some songs or it will change as well. I have a OnePlus Nord phone not sure exactly if it's the OnePlus 10 Nord or which.

Welcome to AC!
Which message app your using default or something else ? Check in settings of the message app should be option to turn off web Link

Unfortunately,this happens to me too and I have found no answer. Posted the same question a few weeks back. Seems no one really has an answer. I have no option to "turn off web link" so that doesn't help. Some of the settings that are being suggested no look at/turn off I do not have either. So I guess I'm just stuck dealing with this?

If my phone was doing that I would be pretty irritated as well... in fact if it was something I couldn't stop that came on the phone, I would get rid of it and never buy that brand again. That's incredibly rude, privacy invasive behavior for a stock texting app to have If it is in fact the stock app.

Which device and message app your using?

The phone I WAS experiencing this on was a 1+ Nord N100 I believe... However, I now have a Nokia X100, and I am still dealing with this issue. I am using the stock messaging app that came pre installed on the phone

Try different message app like Google?

I was thinking about this, but was going to use this option as a last resort.

Here is the solution.
Go to settings
Go to Location
Tap “App access to location”
Tap on Google and only allow while using the app

I did this and no longer have seen this problem again.
