So this is limited to android apps?

I tested with Signal. Calling an user without a Signal account works. I’ll try later with 2GIS.

EDIT: I can’t reproduce it with 2GIS and my browser is opened.

try close browser first. than tap to phone number. it will open browser again with empty page, after that it open phone app

Oh I got it <3
It doesn’t matter if the phone has been rebooted before. It happens only if the browser is closed. Can you add Close the browser as first step?

nope, cant edit first post more )

its not happens only when browser closed, its happens always, but when browser opened, it just change focus to it for a moment, then open phone app, becuse browser app first read link. then browser app open phone app, phone app never opens directly from android, it always open with browser, nevermind its opened or closed

The flow of events is the same if Browser ia closed or not, but if it’s already open, it happens so fast the UI doesn’t have the time to show it.

Still here in 4.4.0.63:

  • Click phone number in whatsapp message
  • Android Phone app flashes
  • Sailfish Browser app flashes
  • Call the number top dialog is shown
