Describe the problem
In android app, entering a valid https uri generates an error stating it is invalid, exacerbated by using a keyboard entry format that causes gboard to capitalize H by default.
ie, per rfc3986, "Https" is just as valid as "https"
aka case insentivity is the bane of humanity

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Try to enter custom url on android app
  2. Even though "Https://netbird....." is valid, and how the app prompts you to enter it, it reports an 'ivalid' server name

Expected behavior
accept valid URI
