Explorer for iPhone - make a call

KevinBurke1 — Fri, 15 Aug 2014 21:37:58 GMT

Hello, I am using the Explorer app for iPhone and would like to make a call by clicking on a phone number from a pop-up attribute.

My data is a string (xxx) xxx-xxxx. Is there a way to get this to work? Do I need a different format for my attribute data?

Thank you.

Kevin,

If you author the popup content to use the following scheme for a phone number the device should automatically jump to the phone app when tapped.

tel://xxx-xxx-xxxx

Hope this helps,

-Brent
