iPhone Mail App Dangerous Links

So, the long press context menu on links embedded in emails does not always work, especially if the link is in a large button. This is very dangerous and allows for inadvertently clicking a vulnerability exploit link. Please remedy. Goal is to be able to preview a link instead of it being automatically opened in a browser and visiting a malicious website. There should be a default prompt that asks the user if they want to allow the link to be opened and with a preview of the url.

It is a link because when accidentally clicking it, I was brought to a website. I have internet and it is stable.

I suspect there is an issue with how items get highlighted for the contextual menu. This is not limited to just Mail app but any internet browser large size link on a button or similar.

The large button that you may be referring to may not even be a link it could simply be an image.

Also, check the internet stability and connectivity. Preview of links requires the internet.
