I have implemented the ability to make a call from clicking on a row of descriptive tableview of my hotel; I used the URL scheme by writing the following code in method "didSelectRowAtIndexPath ":
NSString *phoneNumber=element.phone;
[NSString *phoneNumberScheme = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"tel:%@ ", phoneNumber];
NSlog(phoneNumberScheme);
phoneNumberScheme = [phoneNumberScheme stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:phoneNumberScheme]];
No error! With NSlog i verified that the number was read correctly and so it is(indeed on console appears tel:1-408-555-5555); The problem is that nothing happens!!! At this point (also based on something I read on the web) i have a doubt that I can't test this thing on simulator! Someone can tell me if I'm doing something wrong or if i can't test this "url scheme" on simulator?! Thanks
