Send SMS through the App
I like to preload text so app-users can click the link and the text will automatically load into the phone. Using the standard code <a href="sms:?body=mytext">mytext</a> it doesnt work. Please advise on how to enable this very important feature.
Thanks Rene

I don't think Andromo is currently set up to handle links using the sms protocol. It's not something we'd want to enable in all builds, since I believe it requires additional permissions for the app which might scare off some users.
web page and view that web page in the native browser by providing a
link for your users to follow."
Unfortunatly it does not work in the native browser. If you visite the webpage I´m using the code by typing in the url in the mobile browser everything works fine. But that is not the way I would like to go. If I only want to provide web-apps I dont need to pay for andromo.

I dont think that will be a good decision. Every successful app on GooglePlay (and App Store as well) requires lots of permissions users will accept to get best app experience. So I feel it need to be to decide from the members of andromo and not andromo themselves. Its just a matter of time people will switch to other plattforms providing lots of more native features than andromo does. (My view).
Please understand me right, I like andromo and I´m using it for my apps. But think about the awesome success of whatsapp e.g. - we need to provide sms,photo and mms as additional feature to build standard apps.
Thanks
