how to prevent YouTube app from opening.

Hello I am having issues where when I open a link to YouTube in a wkwebview it opens up the installed YouTube app. I have tried my own way of blocking the opening of the YouTube app but it seems I'm stuck.

Is there a way to prevent certain apps from opening automatically from links clicked on or traveled to?

Here is what I have so far.

                
                guard let url = navigationAction.request.url else {
                        decisionHandler(.cancel)
                        return
                    }
                //not sure why this code is not being used...
                
                
                
                // Check if the navigation is a link click with target="_blank"
                if navigationAction.targetFrame == nil {
                    // Handle the navigation request to open a new window
                    if let url = navigationAction.request.url {
//                        UIApplication.shared.open(url) //opens in safari....
                        
                        let request = URLRequest(url: url)
                            webView.load(request)
                        decisionHandler(.cancel)
                        return
                    }
                }
                // Continue with the navigation if not a link with target="_blank"
                
                
                
                
                if url.scheme == "youtube" || url.scheme == "music" {
                        decisionHandler(.cancel)
                        return
                    }
                //this should cancel app opening for youtube:// links and apple music. 
                
//                if let url = navigationAction.request.url {
//                    // Allow Google sign-in redirects
//                    if url.absoluteString.contains("accounts.google.com") || url.absoluteString.contains("gstatic.com") {
//                        decisionHandler(.allow)
//                        return
//                    }
//                }
                
                if url.absoluteString.hasPrefix("http") {
                                decisionHandler(.allow)
                                return
                            }
                
                if let url = navigationAction.request.url {
                    if shouldDownloadFile(from:url) {
//                    if navigationAction.navigationType == .other, let mimeType = navigationAction.request.allHTTPHeaderFields?["Content-Type"], mimeType.contains("application/pdf") {
                        
                        downloadFile (from: url)
                        decisionHandler(.cancel)
                        return
                    }
                }
                
               
                decisionHandler(.allow)
            }
