SMS Click to send

Hi, I am trying to send phone number and code (to send SMS to new number). Format is sms:{fromPhoneNumber}?body=YOUR_MESSAGE

Is this format depends on type of phone being used?

on iPhone message displayed like hyperlink, which is correct. So when user click on it, new message to phone number is generated with body of the message already populated.

On Android or ring central number, it displays without hyperlink
