Phoneto integration: Launching a dialer application from a Web page

Use the phoneto link to launch a configured dialer application, with the telephone number automatically filled in, from a device Web page. An example of the HTML markup for a phoneto link is as follows.

<a href=phoneto:18005551212>Toll-free directory assistance</a>

On your device screen, a phoneto link looks just like any other link, but the link text should make it clear that this link makes a phone call.

To launch a configured dialer application from a device Web page
  1. Tap the telephone number link on the device.

  2. The dialing will initiate automatically.

    Note

    You will get an error message if the device does not contain an integrated telephone. The error message will display the telephone number that was selected, so you can then manually dial this telephone number on another device.
