I believe what happens is that the “open in banking app” button attempts to open the payto:// URI with any app that supports it. In your case, it is likely that Taler is the only app that supports it, so the URI opens in Taler itself, without asking you to choose the target app.

The crash has been fixed, at least.

That's a good explanation. However, the app should be able to recognize that it was called from itself and instead of opening the deposit page inform the user that no supported banking app has been found on the users device.

I also have the faint memory of Android providing an API to check for installed apps for a certain URI scheme. If that's correct, the wallet could use that information to hide the button in case it is the only app supporting the scheme.
