It's recommended to include the country code in international format (e.g., +14155551234, not 415-555-1234). Without a country code, the receiving phone may not parse the number consistently across regions, resulting in scans that open with incorrect digits or fail entirely.
Frequently asked
- Will scanning the code dial the number automatically?
- No. iOS and Android both require the user to tap a confirmation before placing the call. Treat that confirmation step as part of the design; you cannot bypass it.
- Why include the country code?
- A number without a country code is interpreted relative to the device's home region, which is unpredictable for posters or packaging seen in multiple countries. International format (
+...) is the only safe choice. - When should I use this instead of the SMS mode?
- Use Phone for "tap to call" use cases (helplines, restaurant reservations, emergency contacts). Use SMS for "tap to message" use cases (opt-in keywords, support text lines, anything where the user types).
- What's the difference from the URL mode?
- You can put a
tel:URI into the URL mode, and it will work, but the phone just saves you remembering the URI scheme. Same output otherwise.
