From a quick look it seems that in PlatfformManager.ts the isMobile helper looks like:

isMobile() {
    const browser = Bowser.parse(window.navigator.userAgent);

    return (
      browser?.platform?.type === 'mobile' ||
      browser?.platform?.type === 'tablet'
    );
 }

When checking this directly in the developer console for Safari, the userAgent comes up "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/18.0 Safari/605.1.15" which may lead to Bowser to think it's a desktop browser instead of a mobile browser.

Describe the Bug

iPad Safari is currently being detected as a desktop instead of a mobile device and thus presents the QR code for scanning instead of deeplinking to MetaMask. The mobile wallet is not adapted to work on mobile devices even though it works similar to an iPhone.

Expected Behavior

Trying to connect will deeplink to MetaMask
