How to link to a phone number in a PhoneGap app?
I use the onsen.io framework
on iphone. Standard links like this work quite well. <a href="tel:[phone]">234234234</a>
On Android, they don’t work.

Answer 1

an article on this topic
in general, you need to specify in config.xml

<access origin="tel:*" launch-external="yes" />
<access origin="mailto:*" launch-external="yes" />
<uses-permission android:autoLink="phone" />

You can try using JS, you need the InAppBrowser plugin
window.open('tel:[phone]', '_system')

Answer 2

maybe "tel:1234" ? I am using Appcelerator Titanium and this is how I call the number.
