Hi Igor- do you think this will work for a web-only app?

[Igor]

Hi,

I'm not sure if it will work as web-only app, but it should work if you install app on device.

Igor, just to be sure my wording was not misleading: I'm talking about a web-only app (not prepared as an app that will run as a native app on iPhone or Android), but that will run on the iPhone or Android browser. That's what you are not sure will work - correct? Thanks.

Hello Robert,

Generally, there is no ability to launch applications installed on a device from the web app. But you can consider an approach for custom application: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29...
