App to launch browser by touching link in text file?

Android phone - Samsung Galaxy A12
I want to store a list of URLs in a text file. Then open the file and by touching one of the URLs, my browser would be launched & go to that website.

Is there an app that can do this?
 
Saw this post today and just created a simple proof-of-concept PWA (progressive web app) to solve this need for you. You can add it to your Android/iOS home screen and works offline. Works better on desktop though, but if you are using the Samsung keyboard, open the keyboard actions menu and go to Text Editing to click the "Paste" button to paste some text with urls in it. The site extracts the urls automatically and makes them clickable.
