title: React native USSD Linking
body: <p>Looking for a way to send USSD with # sign to the Dialer. I have tried but the pound sign (#) is still not showing on the dialer each time i try.</p>
  
  <p>Used the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>phoneShare = (number) =&gt; {
      let phoneNumber = '';
      if (Platform.OS === 'android') { phoneNumber = `tel:${number}`; }
      else { phoneNumber = `telprompt:${number}`; }
      Linking.openURL("" + phoneNumber + "");
  };
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>That is the function that i created and later call on other screens.</p>
