Hello,

How can I open the SMS compose screen (from the system Messaging app) from a web app? Seems that <a href="sms:number"> does not work, but <a href="mailto:something@some.com?subject=test"> works...

Thanks

Hi,

Try the below code :

function onsuccess() {
    	console.log("The application has launched successfully");
}
tizen.application.launch("8r4r5ddzzn.Messages", onsuccess);

Hello,

You may use Application Control.

More information:

https://developer.tizen.org/help/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.tizen.native.appprogramming%2Fhtml%2Fguide%2Fapp%2Fappcontrol_message.htm

Although they are documents for native APIs, but the mechanism is same.

Hello,

Try to use:

var appControl = new tizen.ApplicationControl("http://tizen.org/appcontrol/operation/compose", null, null, null,
[new tizen.ApplicationControlData("http://tizen.org/appcontrol/data/to", ["+7894"])]);

tizen.application.launchAppControl(
   appControl,
   "tizen.smsmessages",
   function() {console.log("launch application control succeed"); },
   function(e) {console.log("launch application control failed. reason: " + e.message); },
   null );
