I'm getting links for days as well as things like 'today' and 'tomorrow'

When I select them, it brings me to the calendar. 

It is breaking some url that have dates in them. 

I have had no luck on where to disable it. 

This is only happening on the Note 10. My old Note 8 is not doing this.

I download Roblocks to play and chat with my young nieces and nephews far away in Texas. Roblox flags hyperlinks and doesn't send any of my messages containing today, tomorrow or any day of the week. It's very frustrating.

Okay, it's 10/31 and still no solution?  This just started on my S10e in the past few weeks.  How do we stop the stock Messages app from creating hyperlinks when writing today and tomorrow????

For Messages:  Go to the three horizontal bars, top left of your messages list, tap and scroll down to Advanced Settings. Then scroll to the bottom of that screen to Advanced Settings, Advanced.  The top option is Enable Weblink Preview, which you can uncheck, then back out of the settings menus.

I do not see the "Enable Weblink Preview" under my Advanced Settings. I'm assume this feature is on newer phones. I have S8+. I really need a solution. I don't want people from work accessing my personal calendar.

As of today, 11/13/19, I am also experiencing this problem on my S9. It's been happening for about 2 weeks. Is there a real solution yet?

Great, hopefully they give us a way to turn it off. My Galaxy S9 just got an update and now it's happening on my device. It's irritating. Especially if the words are just "today" or "tomorrow", which come up a often.

This has still (28th December) not been resolved (ref. post by @Rydah 9th December). Please, Samsung, include a fix to get rid of this 'feature' in the next auto update and post on here that you will be doing that

 

Surely your developers cannot honestly think that when someone types 'tomorrow' or '4pm' in a text then the chances are they'll find it useful for that to automatically create a calendar link.  Believe me - and everyone else who has posted on here - we will rarely if ever want to do that: we just want to type  the plain words.

I have always loved Samsung products, but their responsiveness, or lack thereof, is appaling.  Between this and some other small issues with the S10e, has me thinking for the first time in over a decade that maybe Samsung phones are no longer for me....
