Inserting a pause into a tel:// link

Question

I'm creating a webapp to be used by iOS users, but some phone numbers in the database need to have extensions added on. Is there any way to modify the tel:// URL scheme to include a pause or wait?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You can use 'p' to pause, for example, tel:12345678#123. By changing '#' to 'p' will cause pause for extension.

tel:12345678#123  // original tel number
tel:12345678p123  // after changed for tel scheme
