PhoneGap 3/ Cordova 3 does not open up e-mail links (mailto) with the native mail application (ios)

I updated a phonegap 2.5 app to ios7 and cordova 3.1. It runs only on iOS.

When the external links wouldn't open, I included the InAppBrowser plugin and that worked.

But how to I get the mail links (E-Mail me) to open in the native mail program? There is no such plugin.

I tried the contacts plugin. But it wasn't that.

I saw the EMail Composer plugin, but I am looking for support by cordova or a cordova plugin.

Solution

  • Just solved it.

    Seems to be a missing feature of the iOS simulator. On my iPhone 4 it works.
