title: cordova app to start whatsapp
body: <p>I did a <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33103555/how-to-open-app-when-clicked-on-link-which-is-shared-in-whatsapp-or-any-social-a">few</a> <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13218709/how-to-implement-facebook-send-twitter-share-send-sms-send-email-in-my-phoneg?rq=1">researches</a> yet either the answer is outdated (cordova changed a lot since the answer) or in unanswered.</p>
  
  <p>This is what i need:</p>
  
  <p>I have a phone number on html page which is parte of a cordova app.</p>
  
  <p>All that i need is to know how to send this number to whatsapp so either te user can add the number as contact and therefore be able to be prompted to send a message or simply open the message dialog.</p>
  
  <p>Such behavior need to work on android and on ios too.</p>
  
  <p>Any guidance is welcome.</p>
